Great Britain’s Para-canoe team added a further three medals on the final day of the European Championships to finish top of the medal table.

The team finished with nine medals in all – four golds, four silvers and one bronze – seven medals clear of any other country.

Laura Sugar raced to victory in the KL3 200m event, finishing 1.747 seconds ahead of France’s Nelia Barbosa.

The win means Sugar has now added a European title to her Olympic and World Championship crowns.

Edward Clifton added silver by finishing behind Portugal’s Norberto Mourao in the men’s VL2 200m event, while Stuart Wood finished runner-up in the VL3 200m.

Charlotte Henshaw won two of Great Britain’s six medals on Saturday, winning the KL2 and claiming silver in the VL3.

Henshaw was beaten in the VL3 women’s final by compatriot Hope Gordon, who won by half a length.

Olympic silver medallist David Phillipson, 36, held off Italy’s Christian Volpi to win the KL2 men’s final in a time of 41.516 seconds.

Jonny Young claimed silver in the men’s KL3 final, while Taylor Gough earned a bronze in the VL1 final on his international debut.
