Jordan Stolz broke his seventh track record in his last eight sprints on the World Cup level, locking up his second-straight 1000m World Cup season title on the second day of competition at the Inzell World Cup. He now owns a 14-race win streak in the distance on the World Cup level, beginning December 2023 and spanning nearly three full competitive seasons.

One day earlier, the 21-year-old secured his second 1500m title in two years. 

Stolz, the 2023 and 2024 world champion in the 1000m, crossed the finish line in 1 minute, 6.83 seconds, 0.28 seconds faster than the mark set by China's Ning Zhongyan in March 2024. Stolz has owned the 1000m world record since January 2024.

At both the Heerenveen and Hamar World Cups in December, Stolz eclipsed the track records in each of the three sprints. 

Two other Americans landed inside the top 10 in the 1000m in Inzell: Cooper McLeod, who skated across the finish line in 1:07.39 for 5th place, and Conor McDermott-Mostowy, who finished in 1:07.92 for 7th. Both will race the event at the Milan Cortina Olympics in February, making their Olympic debuts.

In the day's final event, the men's 5000m, Norway's Sander Eitrem shaved over one-and-a-half seconds off the world record set by France's Timothy Loubineaud at the season opener in Salt Lake City, becoming the first man to skate the distance in under six minutes.

Eitrem, the reigning world champion in the distance, skated across the finish line in 5:58.52. Loubineaud's mark from November was 6:00.23.

Skating in the pair before Eitrem, Loubineaud had finished his race nearly one second faster than the previous track record time. He ended in 3rd behind Czechia's Metodej Jilek, the 2025 junior world champion. Jilek, 19, finishes the season as the World No. 1 in the long distances.

American Casey Dawson finished just off the podium in 4th for the second time this season. At the Calgary World Cup, Dawson — who leads the United States' world record-holding men's team pursuit trio — skated to gold in the distance for his first individual World Cup podium.

Two skaters on the women's side also eclipsed track records on day two in Inzell: the Netherlands' Jutta Leerdam (1000m) and Norway's Ragne Wiklund (3000m).

Leerdam surpassed her own track best, clipping 0.12 seconds off the mark she posted in March 2024 for the win. Her final time of 1:12.74 was almost 0.7 seconds faster than 2nd-place finisher Miho Takagi, the reigning Olympic champion. The race marked Leerdam's third gold in her four 1000m races this season.

Dutch teammate Femke Kok, who has dominated the women's 500m for the last two years, landed in third for her fifth 1000m podium on the 2025-26 circuit. She finishes the season as the distance's top-ranked skater.

Americans Brittany Bowe, who has held the world record in the distance since 2019, and Erin Jackson finished 4th and 5th, respectively. Bowe ends her final World Cup season without a medal in the 1000m, though she enters the 2026 Olympics as the World No. 3 in the distance. Jackson's finish was her best of the season in the 1000m.

Wiklund's personal-best time of 3:54.74 in the women's 3000m snapped reigning world champion Joy Beune's undefeated streak and track record. The Dutch skater came in 2nd.

Prior to Saturday's competition, Beune had won each of her 1500m and 3000m races on the World Cup level this season.

Wiklund, 25, is the 2023 world champion in the 3000m. She also won the distance at the 2026 European Championships in early January.

The Inzell World Cup concludes Sunday, Jan. 25, with the second 500m races, the mass starts, and the team sprints.
