Maisie Summers-Newton World Champion
More phenomenal success for Medigold Heath Sponsored Maisie Summers-Newton, at the World Para-swimming Championships at the London Aquatics Centre in the Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park. The ninth edition of the World Para Swimming Championships is a key qualifier for the Tokyo 2020 Paralympic Games, and will be the second time the event has been staged in the UK.
Maisie, 17, beat her own world record to take the gold medal in the women’s SM6 200m medley, claiming her first World Championship title. Following this success Maisie then went on to take silver in the SB6 100m Breaststroke, and another gold in the 100m freestyle.
Based in Northampton, Maisie Summers-Newton, announced her arrival on the scene at last year’s European Championships in Dublin, winning two individual golds and setting two world records.
Again, we are all very proud of Maisie, such an incredible female athlete. We all look forward to following you on your journey and wish you all the best of luck in Tokyo.
