Patmore adds bronze to his Paralympic medal collection

Australian Paralympic snowboarder Simon Patmore kept clipping seconds off his time with each run in the banked slalom in PyeongChang today to claim bronze – his second medal of the 2018 Paralympic Winter Games.

And in doing so he not only gave himself a 100 per cent record in South Korea - two medals in two events - but doubled the Australian Team's medal tally from Sochi 2014 to four. The Russian collection was two bronze medals. The PyeongChang collection currently sits at one gold and three bronze, with two events left on the 2018 program in Para-alpine skiing: the men's and women's slalom.

That gold is Patmore's after a startling six runs in the snowboard cross on Monday.

"I can't believe it," Patmore said of his precious cargo after being ranked world No.6 in the snowboard cross and No.5 in banked slalom before heading to PyeongChang.

"I literally can't wait to be a week from now and look at my medals and think 'Oh my god, how did I get these?'," the 30-year-old from Brisbane said.
