Swimmer Tom Gallagher has delivered Australia’s first gold medal of the 2024 Paris Paralympics to cap a remarkable comeback from a near-deadly bout of pancreatitis. Gallagher powered home through the final throes of the men’s S10 50m freestyle final at a packed La Defense Arena to snatch first place with a finishing time of 23.40secs.
“I’ve won that race before but today Tommy did and a bronze medal is dang good,” Crothers said. “What a story… I think Tom’s such an incredible athlete and he’s had to overcome so much.” Gallagher and Crothers’s medal double haul helped put a shine on an afternoon that began with a bang but threatened to end in heartache for many of Australia’s medal hopefuls.
