Smyth completes golden double

Ireland’s Jason Smyth achieved an amazing golden double tonight in the Bird's Nest Stadium in Beijing, winning Paralympic gold for the second time this week.

The visually impaired athlete won the 200m (T13) in front of 91,000 spectators, in a new world record time; 21.43sec, remarkably destroying the mark he set in qualifying yesterday by a massive 0.38 of a second.
