Paralympics: GB’s Stephen McGuire wins boccia gold at Paris 2024

Britain’s Stephen McGuire has won Paralympic boccia gold, defeating Colombia’s Edilson Chica to win the BC4 men’s individual title.

The 40-year-old triumphed 8-5 at the South Paris Arena.

It was 3-3 at the halfway mark but in the third of four ends, McGuire scored five points to establish a decisive lead.

It is McGuire’s first Paralympic medal at his fourth Games.

He was a late addition to the British squad for Paris 2024, having had to recover from a broken leg and knee sustained in a fall at his home in 2022.
