Great Britain celebrated their most successful day at a Paralympic Games this century with 12 gold medals on a record-breaking super Sunday at Paris 2024. We’ve looked back at the weekend’s sporting highlights…

Hannah Cockroft won her fourth successive women’s T34 100m title to clinch GB’s first Para-athletics gold, ahead of team-mate Kare Adenegan, before Sabrina Fortune produced a world record to win the women’s F20 shot put title at the Stade de France.

Four golds were won in the pool, where Maisie Summers-Newton took the women’s SB6 100m breaststroke title, Brock Whiston claimed women’s SM8 200m individual medley gold as Alice Tai took bronze, Grace Harvey triumphed in the women’s SB5 100m breaststroke, and Britain’s quartet won mixed S14 4x100m relay gold.

The final day of Para-track cycling action in the velodrome brought three GB golds, with James Ball and pilot Steffan Lloyd beating team-mates Neil Fachie and Matt Rotherham to the men’s B 1,000m time trial title.

Sophie Unwin and pilot Jenny Holl triumphed in the women’s B 3,000m individual pursuit, with bronze going to Lora Fachie and Corrine Hall, while there was open C1-5 750m team sprint success for Jody Cundy, Jaco van Gass and Kadeena Cox.

Liverpool’s perfect start to the Premier League season continued as Arne Slot’s side beat Manchester United 0-3 at Old Trafford.

Two first-half mistakes from Casemiro led to two Luis Diaz goals before Mohammed Salah confirmed the comprehensive victory in the second half.

The loss against a rival at home will likely pile more pressure on United boss Erik Ten Haag.

Liverpool recently penned a multi-year partnership with Ladbrokes that designates the Entain-owned gambling brand as the Reds’ betting partner in the UK and Ireland.

Gus Atkinson’s five-wicket haul eventually broke Sri Lanka’s resistance to give England victory in the second Test and the series with a match to spare.

After making his maiden hundred in the first innings, Atkinson became only the third England player to score a century and take five wickets in a Test, and first since Lord Botham in 1984.

The England and Wales Cricket Board (ECB) recently signed a multi-year partnership with UK pensions insurance specialist Rothesay.

Charles Leclerc pulled off an extraordinary home win for Ferrari at the Italian Grand Prix, ahead of the McLarens of Oscar Piastri and Lando Norris.

Ferrari chose a one-stop strategy for Leclerc, improvising mid-race, to vault him in front of the McLarens – who chose the conventional two-stop approach.

Last week, Formula 1 signed a multi-year partnership with temporary power solutions provider Aggreko, covering all European Grand Prix races from the 2025 season.

Scottie Scheffler underlined his status as the world’s number one golfer with a dominant victory at the season-ending Tour Championship in Atlanta.

It caps a remarkable 2024 for the American who has won an Olympic gold medal, his second Masters and become the first to land successive Players Championship titles.

He is the first player since Tiger Woods in 2007 to win seven events in a PGA Tour season.

Elsewhere in golf, the DP World Tour recently challenged every player in the field to hit a miniature version of a DP World shipping container from 70 yards with a stinger shot.
