Sweden at the 2014 Winter Olympics

Sweden competed at the 2014 Winter Olympics in Sochi, Russia, from 7 to 23 February 2014. The Swedish Olympic Committee (Swedish: Sveriges Olympiska Kommitté, SOK) sent 106 athletes to the Games, 61 men and 45 women, to compete in nine sports. 38 of the 98 events had Swedish participation. The youngest athlete in the delegation was freestyle skier Sandra Näslund, at 17 years old, while ice hockey player Daniel Alfredsson was the oldest athlete at 41. Alfredsson competed in his fifth Olympics, and he thus became the first Swedish ice hockey player that has participated in five Olympic tournaments. 55 athletes were Olympic debutants. Sweden won 15 medals in total, making the Sochi games Sweden's most successful Winter Games ever in terms of medals. However, the number of gold medals (2) was lower than in the two previous Winter Games.

In ice hockey, Sweden's women's team qualified for the semi-finals after defeating Finland with 4–2 in the quarterfinal.

The second gold medal came on 16 February, as Marcus Hellner completed a strong team effort in the men's relay, crossing the finish line almost half a minute ahead of silver medalists Russia.

Emil Jönsson and Teodor Peterson gained the bronze medal in the men's event after German skier Tim Tscharnke fell late in the race. In curling, the Swedish women's team won their semifinal against Switzerland's team with 7–5. The men's team however lost their semifinal against Great Britain's team with 5–6. In ice hockey, the Swedish team won their quarterfinal against Slovenia with 5–0 and qualified for the semifinals.

The first Swedish medal outside the cross-country skiing events was earned on 20 February, after the Swedish women's curling team lost their final game against Canada with the score 3–6. In women's ice hockey, Sweden lost the bronze medal game against Switzerland with 3–4, finishing fourth.
