Winter Olympics 2026: What you missed
The Milan-Cortina 2026 Winter Olympics have officially ended.
The Winter Olympics are over and aren’t back until 2030. Some of the athletic highlights include the first Winter Olympic gold medal won by a South American nation, thanks to Brazil's Lucas Pinheiro Braathen, and also American figure skater Alysa Liu’s comeback. But then there’s some more dramatic moments like the public confessions of cheating and a condom shortage…
William and Chelsea from the What in the World team tell us their Winter Olympics highlights.
And we speak to BBC sports reporters Sarah Mulkerrins and Emma Smith, who’ve been following the games in Italy to get a good debrief of it all.
