Great Britain’s Poppy Maskill claimed her third gold medal of the Paralympics in Paris by winning the women’s S10 100m backstroke.

Maskill, 19, continued her wonderful Games by adding to the two golds and two silvers won earlier in the Games.

She trailed Valeriia Shabalina at the halfway mark, but fought back to win in a time of one minute 5.74 seconds.

Maskill’s victory took ParalympicsGB to 41 gold medals in Paris, equalling the tally achieved by the team in Tokyo three years ago.

Earlier, Mark Tompsett, 17, won bronze in the men’s S14 100m backstroke while Maisie Summers-Newton added a bronze in the women’s S6 400m freestyle to the two gold medals she had previously won in Paris.
