Swimmer Poppy Maskill sets a new world record to win Great Britain's first gold at the Paris Paralympics.
Teenage swimmer Poppy Maskill created history with Britain's first gold of the Paris 2024 Paralympics.
Maskill was fastest in Thursday morning's heats and again set the pace in the final, turning half a second clear and finishing strongly in one minute 3.00 seconds, 0.33 clear of the mark jointly held by her team-mate Olivia Newman-Baronius and Russian athlete Valeriia Shabalina, who is representing the Neutral Paralympic Athletic team in Paris.
"It's unreal and it feels weird to be the team's first gold medallist," said Maskill, who was second to Chan at last year's World Championships in Manchester. The Briton led at halfway with Hillhouse down in fourth but the 20-year-old came through in the second half of the race in a new Paralympic record of 54.61 seconds, with Ellard clocking 54.86.
