Team GB Wins 65 Medals at Paris Olympics

Team GB concluded the Paris 2024 Olympics with a total of 65 medals, surpassing their Tokyo total by one but falling short of their 67 medals from Rio 2016. Their performance included 14 golds, marking their lowest gold medal count since Athens 2004, and they finished seventh in the overall medal table, one spot below hosts France. Cycling was the standout sport, yielding 11 medals, including golds for Tom Pidcock and the women's track sprint team. Athletics also contributed significantly, highlighted by Keely Hodgkinson's gold in the 800 meters. Despite strong showings in various sports, Team GB's overall medal haul reflects a decline in golds compared to previous Games, illustrating a need to reassess their strategies moving forward. Meanwhile, Australia celebrated its best overseas Olympic performance, finishing fourth with 53 medals, including a record 18 golds.
