Team Wales captain Olivia Breen wins Wales’ first athletics medal at the Games by taking silver in the T38 women’s 100 metres final. Multiple reports say Breen finishes in 12.86 seconds, which is her season’s best time, during the T38 100m race. The T38 classification relates to athletes with coordination impairments. As captain of Team Wales, Breen’s result marks a breakthrough for the Welsh athletics team at the event, with the medal coming in the sprint final rather than another track discipline. Both outlets describe the same performance and outcome, noting that it is Breen’s first Welsh medal in athletics and that her time is a season best. The reports do not add further details about the gold medalist or the rest of the final’s finishing positions beyond Breen’s silver and recorded time.
