The Brazilian delegation secured three gold medals, seven silver medals, and ten bronze medals, placing the country 20th in the medal count and 12th in total podium finishes.

In France, women athletes from Brazil made history by breaking long-standing records and | achieving unprecedented success. For the first time, women outperformed men, securing more medals in a single Olympic Games.
