The parents of Olympic champion swimmer Daniel Wiffen are "over the moon" with their son's gold medal triumph in Paris last night.
If Monday at Versailles evoked images of mirages, Tuesday in Paris was an even greater assault on the senses, with temperatures in the city peaking at 35 degrees Celsius. It felt hotter than that though.
There were tears of joy on the swimming podium last night, as Daniel Wiffen became the first Irish man to win a medal in the pool.
Daniel Wiffen executed the "perfect race" in becoming Olmypic champion, according to RTÉ Sport analyst Gráinne Murphy.
