The 2026 Milan Cortina Winter Olympics began competition with mixed doubles curling in Cortina d'Ampezzo, Italy, only for a power outage to halt play shortly after the start. The brief disruption lasted about three to five minutes, dimming lights and stopping scoreboards across four matches. Play resumed amid cheers from fans, as teams including Canada and Sweden secured opening wins.
Maryna Gasienica-Daniel, a 31-year-old Polish alpine skier, is set to become the fourth family member to compete at the Winter Olympics in Cortina d'Ampezzo, 70 years after her great-aunts and great-uncle participated there in 1956. The veteran of three prior Olympics will race in the giant slalom on February 15. She hails from a sporting family rooted in the winter traditions of Zakopane.
