Javelin thrower Ken Churchill overcame some Australian taunting to retain his F37 title in Athens.

Churchill got the better of Australian Kieran Ault with the perfect start to the competiton - a massive world record throw of 48.09 metres.

"Ault was winding me up saying he was going to beat me but I pulled out the record with my first throw," he said.

On the track, Stephen Payton set a new personal best of 52.32 when he finished third in the T38 400m.

A proud Churchill admitted that he had been looking forward to the Games for a year and a half.

"I wanted gold and the world record," he said. "But after the first throw it was hard to get myself up again for the rest of the competition."

Payton was delighted with his performance in his event after being on crutches in January and only resuming training in March.

"I was a bit concerned when athletes began to go past me but I tried to stay relaxed and stick to my race plan and it paid off.

"The race was slower than the time I ran to get silver in Sydney but I'm very pleased to have won a bronze."
