Lady Vol swimmer Mona McSharry will carry Ireland’s flag during the 2024 Paris Olympics closing ceremony on Sunday.
She will be joined by Ireland’s Daniel Wiffen during the closing ceremony.
The two-time Olympian won a bronze medal in the women’s 100m breaststroke on July 29. She also reached the finals in the 2020 Tokyo Games.
McSharry’s medal-winning performance followed a record setting time in the semifinals on Sunday. McSharry finished second in the semifinals, breaking her own Irish national record, posting a time of 1:05.51.
McSharry became the second Irish swimmer to earn an Olympic medal, joining Michelle Smith, who won four medals, including three gold, in Atlanta in 1996.
