Paris 2024 Paralympics: Iona Winnifrith and Bly Twomey star for Great Britain in Paris

You would think most athletes would know when they have won gold, right?

Well British Para-swimmer Tai admitted she was unaware she had won her S8 50m freestyle final, and had to be told by one of her rivals that she had pipped them to gold.

The 25-year-old, who had her leg amputated just two years ago, now has two golds, one silver and a bronze at Paris – but never expected to compete over her shortest distance.

“I’m not usually lost for words but my brain is going ‘woo-woo’,” she told Channel 4.

“My 50m has been a bit hard, my stroke has not been as balanced just because of the loss of my leg. I did not expect to win.”

Earlier, GB’s Redfern triumphed in the SB13 100m breaststroke final, finally getting gold after finishing second at the past two Games.

Great Britain now have 16 Paralympic golds in the pool at Paris 2024, more than any other nation.
