Many of the events have not yet finished for the day, however below are some of the highlights.
Highlights:
Biathlon
Darya Domracheva of Belarus beat her nearest rival by over 20 seconds to take the gold medal in the Women's 12.5km Mass Start.
The 27-year-old's victory saw her take a third gold medal of the games while Gabriela Soukalova of the Czech Republic too sliver and Norway's Tiril Eckhof finished in bronze medal position.
Curling
After narrowly losing out to China 6-5 in session 12, David Murdoch's rink will face Norway in a tie-breaker on day 11, the winner of which will progress to the semi-finals.
The women meanwhile will safely progress no matter what their result is against Denmark after a comfortable 6-9 win over Russia.
Bobsleigh
It was a gold medal for the Russians in the two-man bobsleigh as Alexander Zubkov and Alexey Voevoda put their differences aside with an embrace despite not being the best of friends.
The duo won by a comfortable 0.66 seconds to take Russia's first two-man gold since 1988 while Switzerland took silver and the USA bronze.
