    Eltje Malzbender has won gold in the T1 individual road race at the para cycling world championships in the Netherlands.

    Across the English Channel in London, Sophie Pascoe's won the S9 50 metres freestyle at the para swimming world championships.

    It's her 12th world title and fourth gold medal at the meet, after wins in the 100 metres freestyle, butterfly and backstroke.
