He’s done it! A Bronze medal result for Daniel Michel in Tokyo!!! 🤩🥉🎉 Congratulations on an amazing performance, we’re all so proud of you Dan!
Hear how it all happened in this article form Paralympics Australia:
Australian boccia has achieved its best result in 25 years after Dan Michel and ramp assistant Ash McClure secured a bronze medal in the individual BC3 singles at Tokyo 2020.
It was a dominant performance by Michel who bounced back emphatically from his defeat in the semi finals 24 hours earlier.
He set the first game up against Great Britain’s Scott McCowan, taking the end 3-0 playing a long court game before consolidating the lead winning the second end 1-0. A tense 3rd end saw him secure another 2-0 win which created an unassailable 6-0 lead going into the final end.
