The United States competed at the 2022 Winter Olympics in Beijing, China, from 4 to 20 February 2022.[1][2]
On January 24, 2022, the United States Olympic & Paralympic Committee named a team of 224 athletes.[3] Curler John Shuster and speed skater Brittany Bowe were named U.S. flagbearers for the opening ceremony.[A] Bobsledder Elana Meyers Taylor was named flagbearer for the closing ceremony.[5]
The United States won nine gold and 25 medals overall at the 2022 Winter Olympics, finishing third in the medal standings, an improvement from fourth in the previous two Winter Olympics and matching the gold medal totals from each. Notable successes included Jessie Diggins becoming the first American female skier to win individual cross-country medals, figure skater Nathan Chen breaking the short program world record en route to the Olympic gold medal in the men's singles, Erin Jackson becoming the first black female athlete to win speed skating gold, and Chloe Kim defending her title in the snowboarding women's halfpipe. Veteran snowboarder Lindsey Jacobellis, who last medaled at the 2006 Winter Olympics in Turin, was the only U.S. athlete with multiple gold medals, winning the women's snowboard cross event, and sharing the gold with teammate Nick Baumgartner in the mixed snowboard cross event.
On January 29, 2024, figure skater Kamila Valieva of the original gold medal winning ROC team was disqualified from both the team and individual events she had competed in due to a failed doping test. On January 30, 2024, the Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS) made the decision to upgrade the United States to gold in the team event as a result, retroactively giving them their ninth gold medal from Beijing. This was the first gold medal in the team event for the United States since it was included in the Olympic program.
