Bayley eyes Paralympics after winning world gold

Britain's Will Bayley has set his sights set on reclaiming his Paralympic title after winning a first world gold medal since 2014.

"I feel like I'm ready to take on anyone in Paris [2024]," said Bayley.

The former Strictly Come Dancing star, who won Paralympic gold in 2016, had to be content with silver in Tokyo.

Bayley, from Royal Tunbridge Wells, struggled with a leg injury after being forced to pull out of the 2019 series of Strictly Come Dancing.

But after claiming silver at the 2020 Paralympic Games he has since gone unbeaten and moved up to world number one.

"I'm ready for that challenge [of reclaiming my Paralympic title] and I can't wait," he added. "Being world champion again means everything to me.

"It's about trying to inspire people to never give up on your dream and that means a lot to me."

GB's Rob Davies claimed bronze in the class one singles after losing in the semi-finals in Andalucia, as did compatriots Aaron McKibbin and Ross Wilson in the class eight singles.
