With Flora Duffy's gold medal in the women's triathlon in 2021, Bermuda is the smallest country in the world by population to have won a gold medal at the Summer Olympics. [1] [2] From 1976 to 2021, they were the smallest country by population to win a medal overall, but that streak ended when Alessandra Perilli won bronze for San Marino in trap shooting in 2021. [3]

The National Olympic Committee for Bermuda was created in 1935 and recognised by the International Olympic Committee in 1936.

The all-time medal table for all Olympic Games from 1896 to 2024, including Summer Olympic Games, Winter Olympic Games, and a combined total of both, is tabulated below.
