King Charles sent a message to Great Britain and the Commonwealth after the Paris Summer Olympics.

His Majesty said: “My wife joins me in sending our warmest congratulations to the competitors and their support teams from Team GB and across the whole Commonwealth, for their many outstanding successes at the Olympic Games in Paris.

“Your achievements, across so many disciplines, were forged from that invaluable combination of raw talent, true grit and hard toil over many years, burnished these past weeks by sportsmanship and team spirit in the finest tradition of the Games.

“To those who missed out on the greatest prizes, you have most certainly not fallen short in the pride that you, too, have generated for your nations.

“As we thank France for hosting such a wonderful tournament and look to the Paralympics ahead, I can only say that you have all been an inspiration.”

The King signed the message with Charles R.

Australia won the most medals in the Commonwealth, coming in fourth with 18 gold medals. Team Great Britain won 14 gold medals and was in seventh place.
