UK Sport confident Great Britain can win ’50 to 70′ medals at Paris Olympics

The elite sports funding agency has set a target range of between 50 and 70 medals for the impending Games.

Great Britain stand a strong chance of landing a record post-War Olympic haul in Paris, according to UK Sport’s director of performance, Dr Kate Baker.

Baker said: “We feel really confident that we can get 50 to 70 and on a good day that 70 is really within our grasp.” And Baker expressed confidence that it would be enough to cement Team GB’s place in the top five of the final medal table for the fifth Games in succession. “That is an extraordinary achievement. Whilst we have achieved more than that historically, and I feel somewhat confident that we can do so again, 50 is no mean feat and it is not a done deal.”
