Tom Brady seen at the Olympic gold medal game in women’s hockey

In the gold medal game of women’s hockey at the 2026 Winter Olympics in Milan, the United States defeated Canada on Thursday 2-1 in overtime on a game-winning goal by Megan Keller. This was a very exciting hockey game with American captain Hillary Knight tying the game at one with just over two minutes left in regulation.

The American G.O.A.T. in attendance

Former National Football League quarterback Tom Brady was in attendance for the game. He was seen alongside National Hockey legend Mark Messier and former tennis star Billie Jean King.

It should be noted that King has made significant contributions to the development of women’s hockey, specifically the formation of the Professional Women’s Hockey League.

Where was Brady watching the game?

Brady was also seen alongside Mike Eruzione, the captain of the famous United States Olympic hockey team that stunned the Soviet Union and eventually won gold at the 1980 Olympic Winter Games in Lake Placid. Brady and Eruzione were seen speaking in a suite according to John Leuzzi of USA Today.

Third gold medal ever for the United States Olympic women’s hockey team

The United States previously won Olympic hockey gold at the 1998 Olympic Winter Games in Nagano and the 2018 Olympic Winter Games in Pyeongchang. In both games, the United States beat Canada in the final.

Eighth gold medal for Team USA

This was the eighth gold medal won by the United States at the 2026 Olympic Winter Games in Milan/Cortina d’Ampezzo. The previous American gold medalists were won by Breezy Johnson of Jackson, Wyoming (women’s downhill), the American figure skaters who won the team event, Elizabeth Lemley of Vail, Colorado (women’s moguls), Jordan Stolz of West Bend, Wisconsin (men’s 500 metres and 1000 metres speed skating), Elana Meyers Taylor of Oceanside, California (women’s monobob), and Mikaela Shiffrin of Vail (women’s slalom).

The United States won a ninth gold medal later on Thursday thanks to Alysa Liu in women’s figure skating. Team USA has won 27 medals overall.
