No Rest for Turner After Fifth-Place Final Finish in Madeira

Nicole Turner is in action again today at the World Para-Swimming Championships.

Nicole Turner had to settle for fifth in the final of the Women’s 50-metre Freestyle S-6 at the World Para Swimming Championships last night.

The Portarlington woman posted her second-best ever time in the event, and Ukraine's Anna Hontar won with a world record time.

She's straight back in the pool this morning for the heats of the 100-metres Breaststroke SB-6 (10.40am) in Madeira.

She's already picked up a bronze in the championships, and will be in the 50-metres Butterfly tomorrow.

Also this morning, Barry McClements returns to the pool for heat-1 of the Men's 100-metre backstroke S9. 

And just after 5pm this evening, Roisin Ni Riain attempts to secure a medal hat-trick when she goes in the final of the Women's 400-metre freestyle S-13.
