The South African Sports Confederation and Olympic Committee (SASCOC) has announced sprint sensation Akani Simbine, as one of the country's flag bearers for the Olympic Games Paris 2024, marking a significant Golden Moment in his illustrious career

"Being chosen as a flag bearer is a dream come true," said Simbine. "It's not just a personal Golden Moment, but a chance to represent the spirit of Team South Africa. This honour will fuel my determination to create more award-winning moments on the track in Paris."

Gymnast Caitlin Rooskrantz will join Simbine as co-flag bearer, underlining South Africa's commitment to gender equality in sports.

The Olympic Games Paris 2024, set to run from July 26 to August 11, promise to deliver unforgettable Golden Moments. With Simbine at the forefront and the talented Corona Cero athlete group competing, Team South Africa is poised to create memories that will resonate with the nation and the world.
