Amy Williams will help spearhead the most expansive Olympic broadcast experience ever when the Winter Games get underway in Milano Cortina next month.

The 2010 Vancouver skeleton champion, 43, is one of multiple respected names headlining TNT Sports’ flagship programming from Italy – offering daily insight and analysis to bring the Games to life.

Aimee Fuller, a two-time Olympian in slopestyle, Vicki Chalmers, a Sochi 2014 curling bronze medallist, and Lamin Deen, an Olympic bobsleigh pilot, are three of the other stars who will be front and centre as TNT Sports makes its debut on the Olympic stage.

From every icy twist and turn to the dizzying descents of the Italian Alps, TNT Sports and discovery+ will be there to deliver an unrivalled multi-platform viewing experience to fans across the UK and Ireland.

Williams, who memorably grabbed gold in Canada 16 years ago, will provide expert analysis of the sliding events while Fuller, Chalmers and three-time Olympic alpine skiers Ed Drake and Charlie Guest will also provide expert analysis from both the studio and commentary box.

Orla Chennaoui and Reshmin Chowdhury, regular faces of WBD’s Olympic coverage, will front the UK studio, including the daily live flagship morning show and end of day wrap-ups plus steering discussion on all key topics throughout the day.

The on-site team including Radzi Chinyanganya, Lutalo Muhammad and Laura Robson will report live from various locations – including the state-of-the-art WBD House studios in Cortina, bringing all the latest news, interviews and stories as they happen.

And Eve Muirhead, the Beijing 2022 curling Olympic champion and Team GB Chef de Mission for this year’s Games, will also contribute to the coverage providing unique insight from inside the team.

Scott Young, EVP at WBD Sports Europe, said: “We are entering a new era with TNT Sports as the new Home of the Olympics in the UK and Ireland.

“We have been telling the stories of these athletes for several months through our extensive coverage of the winter sport World Cup seasons, offering the perfect platform to deliver unmatched coverage of this sporting monument.

“We are delighted to make every event of the Games available to audiences on a vast scale, ensuring the Olympic adventure can be enjoyed to its fullest by as many fans as possible.”

TNT Sports on discovery+ will be the go-to destination in the UK to watch everything of Milano Cortina 2026 live all in one place, with over 850 hours of action from every sport, venue, and medal event.

Young added: “Our streaming proposition on discovery+ will operate as the vehicle to deliver this iconic sporting theatre to levels never seen before. With everything captured live, driven by immersive customisable features, it is the go-to destination for the ultimate Games experience.”
