Kyron Duke was less than two metres away from earning a podium spot in the men's F41 javelin, and he's already got eyes on bettering his sixth place in Tokyo in four years' time.
“I can’t ask for anything better, it is not a medal but it is as good as. I have done my best and come out at the top of my game," he said.
“I’m really looking forward to the World Championship back at home next year and then I’ve got my eyes set on Tokyo 2020.
“I’m hungry for it – I’m getting closer and closer. I threw a PB today so it is going to come. Not everyone gets what they want straight away, things take time. But I have the determination and will put in the hard work to get there.”
