Injured but Unstoppable: GB's Brown Skates to Bronze.

Despite a shoulder injury, Team GB's Sky Brown clinched Olympic bronze in the women's skateboarding park final in Paris.

Sixteen-year-old Sky Brown, clutching the left shoulder she dislocated last week, delivered an incredible performance at the women's skateboarding park final in Paris.

Despite a heavy fall during Tuesday’s preliminary round, Brown's spectacular final run scored 92.31, earning her a bronze medal. This adds to the bronze she won in Tokyo, where she became Great Britain's youngest-ever Olympic medalist at just 13 years and 28 days old.

The competition was fierce, with Australia's 14-year-old Arisa Trew taking gold with a score of 93.18.

Japan's Kokona Hiraki, who won silver in Tokyo, repeated her success with a score of 92.63 for another silver medal at Place de la Concorde.
