Team GB Achieves Record 65 Medals at Paris Olympics

The Paris 2024 Olympics concluded with a vibrant closing ceremony at the Stade de France, featuring performances by Tom Cruise, Billie Eilish, Snoop Dogg, and Red Hot Chili Peppers, as well as Team GB athletes celebrating their successful campaign with a total of 65 medals. The ceremony included traditional elements such as the athletes' parade and the Olympic flag handover to Los Angeles for the 2028 Games. Team GB's medal tally matched their performance at London 2012, thanks in part to bronze medals won by Emily Campbell in weightlifting and Emma Finucane in sprint cycling. Notable moments included Tom Cruise performing a stunt and Snoop Dogg introducing the breakdancing competition. The U.S. women's basketball team triumphed over France in a tightly contested final, securing a tie for the most gold medals. The closing ceremony showcased over a hundred performers, marking the end of an eventful Olympic event with anticipation for the upcoming Paralympic Games.
