The Malaysian contingent at the 2024 Paris Paralympic Games bagged its first medal when sprinter Eddy Bernard grabbed a bronze in the men’s 100m T44 (physical impairment) event at the Stade de France today. 

The Sabah sprinter, running in Lane 3, got off to a good start but lost a bit of momentum mid-race before crossing the finish line in 11.58s for the bronze medal.
