Three-time Olympic medalist (bronze, silver and gold), 2023 World Champion, 21x World Cup winner (60 podiums), and 2021 and 2024 World Cup overall winner Jessie Diggins of Afton, Minnesota is one of the most dominant and successful cross country skiers in the world. Cementing herself as the most decorated American cross country skier in history, Jessie has taken the sport to a entirely new level.

Timing has always been a strength for the 2018 Olympic gold medalist—the upstart racer kicked off an international career in 2011 by snagging a spot on the World Championship team in Holmenkollen, then in 2013 she and teammate Kikkan Randall won the team sprint at the World Championships. It only went up from there, winning another World Champs medal in 2015, then the iconic Olympic gold at the 2018 Pyeongchang Olympic Winter Games. When asked what her "Top Memories" are, Jessie puts winning the Olympic gold medal with Kikkan Randall at the top, next to winning Olympic silver in the "toughest 30k skate of my life" and winning a bronze medal with Julia Kern at the 2023 World Championships, then winning the U.S.'s first-ever individual gold medal just days later in the 10k individual skate.

In a season marked with historic results, moments and victories, Diggins won the last race of the season in Falun, Sweden to take home the overall and distance FIS Cross Country World Cup Crystal Globes, cementing herself as the world’s most dominant cross country skier in the world in the 2023-24 season. Diggins has won the FIS Crystal Globe twice in her career, along with the distance globe - the only American to do so.

When she's not skiing, Jessie loves to be active in other ways like hiking, camping, running, swimming, gardening and cooking food from her tiny little garden - you can also always find her and her teammates making TikTok dances. She is heavily involved within the ski community and beyond and gives much of her spare time to causes she cares about. Jessie is a spokesperson for the Emily Program, and works with Protect Our Winters (POW) and Share Winter. "I want to leave the sport better than I found it by speaking up about mental health and eating disorders to de-stigmatize them, meaningfully engage in climate advocacy and give back to the sport through supporting the work of Share Winter.
