Who has impressed for Team GB at the Olympics? We look at every athlete to have won a medal for Great Britain during the 2024 Summer Games in Paris…
UK Sport – the body responsible for distributing public money to Olympic sports and their athletes – set a target to win a minimum of 50 medals in Paris, which they reached on Day 12 on the Games, with an additional expectation set to finish in the top five in the medal table.
Team GB’s total is set to be their lowest since the 2008 Beijing Games, where they won 19 golds in their 51 medals. Great Britain’s highest gold medal total was 29 in 2012, with 65 medals won in total on home soil in London, before claiming a record 67 medals in Rio four years later.

Keely Hodgkinson reflects on her gold medal winning performance in the Women’s 800m in Paris and sets the world record as her next target.
The Tokyo Olympics saw Team GB win 22 gold, 20 silver and 22 bronze medals, with this year’s Games likely to result in the fewest Great Britain gold medals since they returned nine golds from the 2004 Olympics in Athens.
There have still been plenty of success stories from Team GB throughout the 2024 Games and across a variety of sports, including Great Britain passing 1,000 medals at a Summer and Winter Olympics in the modern era.
