Kinghorn's 'mind blown' by first Paralympic gold

Sammi Kinghorn has won her first Paralympic gold medal in sensational fashion, taking victory in the T53 100m in Paris.

The 28-year-old Briton came home in a Paralympic record 15.64 seconds at Stade de France, edging out Catherine Debrunner.

It comes after Kinghorn took two silvers over 800m and 1500m earlier in the Games, losing out to Swiss Debrunner on both occasions.

She now has five Paralympic medals overall, having won a bronze and silver in Tokyo three years ago.

Debrunner, who has also won gold over 5000m in Paris, got the silver in 15.77 with Gao Fang, the champion in Tokyo, taking bronze in 16.61.

Kinghorn and Debrunner will line up against each other again on Thursday over 400m.

Kinghorn is the first non-Chinese athlete to win the Paralympic T53 100m since Briton Baroness Tanni Grey-Thompson triumphed in Athens in 2004.
