Prince Harry said, "When you are wearing your nation's flag on your arm, on your chest, once that's removed, there’s something that's missing.”

Prince Harry’s Invictus Games Foundation has sent love to its Founder and Patron after the Duke was recognised in the TIME100 Sports list.

Sharing a photo of Prince Harry from the games, the charity said, "We are honoured our Founder and Patron has been recognised in the #TIME100Sports list.”

It further said thank you to TIME for shining a light on the work of the Invictus Games Foundation and the extraordinary community behind it.

“Sport has the power to change lives and, in some cases, to save them,” the statement reads.

Through the work of the Invictus Games Foundation, wounded, injured and sick service personnel and veterans rediscover purpose, rebuild confidence and regain a sense of identity.

The IGF continued, “What began as a belief in the power of sport has grown into a global movement, one that not only supports recovery, but creates community, belonging and hope. It proves every day that sport can restore meaning and, for some, be truly life‑saving.”

“We are proud of this recognition, but most importantly, we are proud of the Invictus Community, whose resilience and determination inspire everything we do,” the foundation added.

King Charles younger son has been recognised as one of the world’s most influential sporting figures, earning a place on TIME Magazine's 100 Most Influential People in Sport 2026 list for the first time in five years.
