Before wrapping up the interview, Jon and Sally Nugent discussed with Katie about Team GB’s triumphs at the Olympics. Reflecting on the video montage, Katie shared: “Gosh I was getting emotional listening to that then. There have been so many incredible memories throughout these games. The things that immediately spring to mind are some of those Gold Medal moments.” “And there are things that come out of nowhere and I think a highlight for me was in the artistic swimming when Britain won their first-ever medal.”

It matches the amount from London 2012 12 years ago, and marks their third highest total over all at a singles games, sitting behind Rio at 67 and London 1908 with 146.
