No. Winning is the present participle of the verb (to win) and can be a verb form, adjective, or noun (gerund). There is an adverb 'winningly' but it has a different connotation.An adverb is a descriptive word that modifies a verb. 'Winning' does not modify a verb (eg the sentence "Dave winning glanced at Karen, who melted" does not make sense, because 'winning' isn't an adverb), and therefore is not an adverb. In a sentence that uses 'winning': "Dave gave Karen a winning glance," 'winning' is modifying 'glance,' a noun, not 'gave,' the verb. Therefore, one may conclude that 'winning' is an adjective, not an adverb.
