    Little over 20 minutes ago, Faye Rogers won ParalympicsGB's first gold of day six in the women's S10 100m butterfly final, finishing ahead of team-mate and silver medallist Callie-Ann Warrington.

    Here's what she had to say after that victory, speaking to Channel 4:

    "The back-end of races are always the strongest part of my race. I was quite confident, I could see Callie fighting and we smashed it."

    On recovering from her accident three years ago, she adds: "It’s a bit emotional, but it's a big full circle moment and I couldn't be prouder of myself.

    "I couldn’t have asked for more from the last three years. I have the best team, I’ve made some best friends. It's crazy. It's so cool and I’ve started to get messages from people who have been in similar situations and I’m so grateful I can help.

    "There's always days where it feels it's not going to get better, but I’ve found over the past three years there's nothing I can't do, it just might look a little different and that's okay."

    Wheelchair basketball men's quarter-final - Great Britain 84-64 Australia

    Well, after an incredibly tight first three quarters at Bercy Arena, with GB's men leading by five points, they have blown Australia away in the fourth to seal a semi-final place.

    GB edged the first quarter by a single point, and the following two by just two points, to set up what appeared a tense finale.

    But after a one-sided final quarter, they eventually win by 20 in a statement performance - adding 28 points in the final 10 minutes.

    Germany await in the semi-finals following their 57-49 victory over Spain, with Canada playing the United States or hosts France in the other half of the draw.

    Nathan Maguire will seek to earn Great Britain's sixth para-athletics medal of the Games this evening in the men's T54 1500m final at 20:10 BST.

    Maguire, who will be getting married to fellow wheelchair racer Hannah Cockroft in just a few weeks' time following their efforts at the Stade de France, lines up with the third-fastest personal best.

    Switzerland's Marcel Hug is the defending champion, following his four gold medals in Tokyo, and the world record holder with a best time of two minutes 43.37 seconds.

    Maguire's best is not far behind, at 2:44.64, but he has a battle to make the podium with Kuwait's Faisal Alrajehi also having gone sub-2:44.

    American Ezra Frech is aiming to complete a sensational track and field double at the Stade de France tonight.

    The 19-year-old won men's T63 100m gold on Monday, and less than 24 hours later he returns in a bid for high jump glory.

    Frech is the reigning men's T63 high jump world champion, as well as the world record holder in the event, so will start as favourite for that title.

    But he did not expect to begin the final with a gold medal already to his name.

    "I’m quite shocked. I was definitely not expecting to go out there and win. I knew I could, but the high jump is where my focus has been," Frech said following his 100m victory.

    "I was treating this as a warm-up for high jump, to get the blood flowing and have a good race, then come back and win high jump."

    Meanwhile, there is slightly more breathing space for Great Britain in their intense quarter-final against Australia, but this is still far from over.

    It has been a spirited performance by an Australian side that lost all three group games, and their resistance appeared to be coming to an end as GB opened a nine-point lead at 56-47 in the third quarter.

    But Jaylen Brown makes a couple of free throws to reduce the deficit to four to set us up for a nail-biting finale.

    As the photograph above demonstrates, it was a positive morning for Faye Rogers (the one giving the thumbs-up) and Callie-Ann Warrington in the S10 100m butterfly heats.

    They were the fastest two qualifiers for this evening's final, with world champion Rogers (one minute 05.92 seconds) leading home Warrington (one minute 07.23 seconds).

    Warrington, 24, was just 0.08 seconds away from a medal in the 100m freestyle on Sunday so will be keen to get on the podium later.

    Faye Rogers goes for Paralympic gold in the pool this evening, which would not have been a consideration for her three years ago.

    In 2021, as an 18-year-old, she took part in the British Olympic swimming trials for the Tokyo Games.

    That September, as she was preparing to start university in Aberdeen, she was in a car accident that left her with several open fractures to her elbow, which was also dislocated, and a severed ulna nerve, all of which resulted in permanent damage to her arm.

    "About three weeks after the accident, the consultant sat me down and I was told they could save my arm but I wouldn't be able to compete again," she told BBC Sport earlier this year.

    "Afterwards, I turned to my mum, who was at the consultation with me, and just said 'Watch me'.

    Tonight, we will.
