Medallists

A number of British athletes won multiple medals at the Championships, the most successful of which was Zharnel Hughes with two golds in the men's 200 metres and 4 x 100 metres relay and one silver medal in the 100 metres. Matthew Hudson-Smith also took double gold in the 400 metres and 4 x 400 metres relay. Other athletes to win multiple medals were Dina Asher-Smith, Daryll Neita, Jeremiah Azu, Nethaneel Mitchell-Blake and Alex Haydock-Wilson. Of the returning 2018 champions, Laura Muir, Hudson-Smith and the men's 4 x 100 metre relay team retained their titles. Hughes won the same number and colour of medals in 2022 as in 2018, but swapped his 2018 100 metres gold for the 200 metres gold here.
