Bournemouth-based Olympic gold medallist Bryony Page was a Team GB flagbearer as the Paris Olympics came to an end.

Page, who won trampolining gold, walked into the Stade de France at the closing ceremony with men's triathlon winner Alex Yee.

After winning silver in Rio, and bronze in Tokyo, Page completed the set of medals with victory in the women's trampolining final.

In a video posted on Team GB's Instagram account, Page told teammates "it was an amazing position" to be a flagbearer for the closing ceremony.

She told fellow athletes and coaches that she was "super proud to be part of this team."

Page also said she'd be leaving Paris full of pride after winning her first Olympic gold.

"I think it's going to take an extremely long time to sink in."

"These games have just been such an amazing experience, the build-up, the camaraderie with my team."
