Manchester – Natalie du Toit, in a class of her own, broke her second world record for Elite Athletes with Disabilities (EAD) at the Manchester Commonwealth Games on Friday morning.

Du Toit clocked 1min 02,83sec in the 100m freestyle heats.

The athlete, who broke the EAD 50m freestyle world record Wednesday, was in line to swim the final on Friday night, then go for a good finish in the 800m freestyle open competition later in the evening.

Shooters David Dodds (silver in open full bore rifle) and Allan McDonald (bronze in 25m rapid fire pistol) brought South Africa’s medal total to 28 earlier Friday afternoon.

These were both shooters’ second medals of the Games.

The SA netball wrapped up their Games on a high note when they trounced Wales 71-27 for fifth overall position. – Sapa
