SPRINTER Hazel Simpson won Britain's third bronze medal on the athletics track in the women's T36 200m event.
The 29-year-old - who won two silvers in Athens - finished in a time of 32.43 seconds behind China's Wang Fang and Germany's Claudia Nicoleitzic.

"I had to really grit my teeth and run all the way through the line. I nearly crushed my teeth," said Simpson, who competes for the Jarrow and Hebburn Athletics Club.
