The 29-year-old has won four gold medals at these Games and is widely expected to take another two.
Johannes Klaebo led Norway to victory in the men`s 4x7.5km cross-country relay at the Winter Games on Sunday to win a record ninth career Olympic gold.
The 29-year-old has won four gold medals at these Games and is widely expected to take another two in the men`s team sprint on Wednesday and 50km classic race on Saturday.
Klaebo took over for the final leg with a lead of 12.2 seconds and extended it to 22.2 seconds by the time he crossed the line. France took silver and the bronze went to Italy.
Klaebo`s gold on Sunday puts him ahead of Norwegian cross-country skiers Marit Bjoergen, Bjorn Daehlie and biathlete Ole Einar Bjoerndalen, with whom he shared a previous record.
Norway kept a steady lead for much of the race, which was seen as Klaebo`s easiest path to a gold medal of these Games.
France`s Mathis Desloges, who has taken two silvers so far, pulled his team into medal position during the third leg of the race, while Italy`s Federico Pellegrino overcame Finland in the anchor leg to take bronze on home soil in his last Olympics.
