Cork teen Noelle Lenihan wins silver at World Championships

Cork teenager Noelle Lenihan produced the display of her life to win a silver medal at the IPC Paralympic Athletics World Championships in Doha.

The 15-year-old discus thrower from Charleville, competing in her first event of this magnitude, produced a lifetime best throw of 30.68m at her first try.

The best was yet to come — and she had an F38 world record of 31.64m with her second throw.
