Gold - 1 - Katie Taylor (Boxing)
Silver - 1 - John Joe Nevin (Boxing)
Bronze - 3 - Paddy Barnes and Michael Conlan (Boxing), Cian O'Connor (Showjumping)
Our medal winners, and all our competitors, did the country proud.
Special mention must be given to Annalise Murphy who came fourth in a sailing event (extremely unlucky not to get a medal), Robert Heffernan who came 4th in the 50K walk and 9th in the 20K walk, and Natalya Coyle who came ninth in the modern pentathlon.
But the star, of course, was Katie. She was an inspiration. The best in the world. So much as expected of her, and she did not disappoint. A credit to herself, her family, her team, her club, and her country.
Well done Katie!
