SKY BROWN defied a shoulder injury to claim a bronze medal for Team GB at the women’s skateboard park competition at La Concorde.

The 16-year-old had also been close to tears after appearing to aggravate the injury during the qualifying competition, in which she placed fourth with a score of 84.75 but fell heavily during the last of her three runs.
