We usually like to celebrate success stories with NZ Sporting History but, as we all know, when it comes to sport it's even harder to forget the times we've fallen short. 2025 marks the 25th anniversary of the 2000 Sydney Olympics. While some athletes did put on great performances at the event, it's mostly remembered for New Zealand's overall lack of success. We came back with just four medals; one gold and three bronze, our worst haul since the 1972 Munich games. Award-winning sports journalist Dylan Cleaver says this had a pretty big impact on the way we do sport in New Zealand.
