Flora Duffy in the context of Bermuda at the Olympics

Bermuda first participated at the Olympic Games in 1936, and has sent athletes to compete in every Summer Olympic Games since then, except when they participated in the 1980 Summer Olympics boycott. Bermuda has also participated in every Winter Olympic Games since 1992.

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. 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.
