Krysten Coombs has had to fight hard to get to his first Paralympic final after losing his opening match at the tournament.

He is the British number two behind Jack Shephard and with only one athlete per nation guaranteed a spot at the Games, both for Tokyo and Paris, he had to rely on a discretionary place becoming available - but he has made the most of his opportunity.

As well as being a talented sportsman, Coombs has also dabbled in acting and appeared as an extra in Game of Thrones, where he was in the fourth series episode ‘The Purple Wedding’, and has also been in The Witcher.

Krysten Coombs will aim to create history when he goes in the SH6 final, hoping to become the first Briton to win a Para-badminton gold medal.

The 33-year-old, who won bronze in Tokyo when the sport made its debut in 2021, will face home favourite Charles Noakes, who will definitely have the larger share of support at La Chapelle Arena.

The pair know each other well, with Noakes holding a narrow 6-5 advantage in their head-to-head record.

The Frenchman was victorious when they met at the World Championships earlier this year but Coombs won their most recent meeting at June's Four Nations event in Glasgow.

While Great Britain's Dan Bethell still reached the podium in Paris, the para-badminton player said he was "devastated" after a heart-breaking loss to India's Kumar Nitesh in the men's SL3 singles final.

Bethell, who also took silver when the sport made its debut in Tokyo in 2021, had match point at 21-20 ahead in the decider but lost 14-21 21-18 23-21.

"I came here for gold and after winning silver in Tokyo I wanted to go one better, but I just couldn’t get over the line," said the 28-year-old.

"At the moment it feels pretty devastating."

Here we go then. Great Britain's six-time Paralympic gold medallist is at the start line for the second heat. Also in this race is Daniel Sidbury, can they both finish inside the top five and reach the final?

Over at the South Paris Arena, Great Britain's Stephen McGuire said "lots of hard work and lots of soul-searching" helped him recover from serious injuries to win a Paralympic gold in boccia.

The 40-year-old 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.

The gold is McGuire's first Paralympic medal at his fourth Games, having previously finished fourth in three competitions at the event.

In the women's PTS4 event, underdog Richter, 23, sealed the title on her Paralympics debut. GB team-mate Hannah Moore claimed bronze.

Jodie Grinham - whose second baby is due in October - has punched through another glass ceiling with her Paralympic gold this evening.

"All I wanted to do was jump up and down and cry and scream and shout," she told me afterwards.

"But I'm heavily pregnant. So the best thing for me to do realistically was just crouch down and take a second. Then I could give hugs. Because the emotion was just a wave.

"The idea is to show that nothing is impossible and to go out there and absolutely smash it. Thankfully I've got an amazing team partner [in Nathan Macqueen] and we smashed it together."

Transgender athlete Valentina Petrillo finished third in her women's T12 400m semi-final and misses out on a place in the final.

The 51-year-old Italian finished with a time of 57.58secs, which was a personal best.

Iran's Hajar Safarzadeh Ghahderijani qualifies for the final, winning the semi-final with a time of 56.07secs.
