Australia's Ben Tudhope wins bronze medal at Beijing Winter Paralympics
Ben Tudhope has won Australia's first medal at the Beijing Winter Paralympics, claiming bronze in the men's snowboard cross SB-LL2.
Tudhope trailed the field in fourth place for much of the race, but a barnstorming finish saw the 22-year-old pip China's Sun Qi to cross the line in third position to reach the podium.
Finland's Matti Suur-Hamari won gold, with Garrett Geros of the United States taking the silver.
More to come.
