Men's 100m - T46
Heath Francis (Australia) won the Men's 100m - T46 with 11.05 and now has three gold medals to his name (one each from 200m and 400m). Papua New Guinea's Kompaon may have only got a silver with 11.10 but he looked the happiest man at the finish line, for giving his country its first medal. In third place was Brazil's Yohansson Nascimento with 11.25.
Classes 40 to 46 covers ambulant athletes with different levels of amputations and other disabilities including dwarfism.
