Marit Bjoergen stands alone.

The Norwegian cross-country skier won her 14th overall medal on Wednesday with a bronze in the women's team sprint, surpassing Norwegian biathlete Ole Einar Bjoerndalen as the most decorated Winter Olympian of all time.

It was the fourth medal for the 37-year-old Bjoergen in PyeongChang. She won gold in the women's 4x5-kilometer relay, silver in the 15-kilometer skiathlon, and bronze in the 10-kilometer freestyle.

And she might not be finished. Bjoergen could still choose to participate in Sunday's 30-kilometer mass start.
