There are few better opportunities to celebrate women in sport than the Olympic games. So, with that in mind, here are all the incredible female athletes who have won a medal for Team GB in Paris so far.
As far as Team GB is concerned, the Paris 2024 Olympics have been pretty amazing so far. The odd moments of disappointment aside (that’s sport for you), Team GB’s athletes have been showing off their talent on the world stage, claiming a collection of medals and even smashing world records in the process.
There’s something particularly special about this year’s selection of athletes, though – for only the second time in Team GB’s history, there are more women than men competing in Paris. There also happen to be nine mothers on the team, including Amber Rutter, who stepped out to compete in Paris just three months after giving birth.
If one thing’s for sure, Team GB is home to plenty of incredible women – and they just so happen to be raking in the medals, too. So, to celebrate all the women contributing to Team GB’s success in Paris, we’ve put together this list of all the women who have claimed medals at the current games. Congratulations!
Gold medal winners
Rosalind Canter and Laura Collett
Sport: Equestrian
Event: Team Eventing
Rosalind Canter and Laura Collett competed alongside teammate Tom McEwen to claim Team GB’s first gold medal of the games in Team Eventing. Their win not only marked the record fifth time Team GB has won this event, but the team also scored the lowest team score after dressage (a good thing). That was all thanks to Collett’s dressage score, which was the lowest ever recorded at an Olympics.

Moraa ended her race with the bronze medal, while Ethiopa’s Tsige Duguma came second.
