Winter Olympics appearances (overview)

Great Britain competed at the 2022 Winter Olympics in Beijing, China, from 4 to 20 February 2022.[1][2] The Great Britain team consists of 50 athletes (27 men and 23 women).[3] Eve Muirhead and Dave Ryding were the country's flagbearers during the opening ceremony.[4][5] Meanwhile curler Bruce Mouat was the flagbearer during the closing ceremony.[6]

British athletes won a total of two medals (one gold, one silver). This result was described as a 'disappointment' by UK Sport.[7] Despite the underwhelming games, Great Britain ranked 19th on the medal table, the same ranking as the previous three Winter Olympic Games.
