Medal delight for Megan in Romania
Fifteen year old Megan was successful in the women’s class 2-5 singles and her medal was one of four bronzes collected by Great Britain.
Megan, the youngest member of the GB Performance Squad, progressed to the knockout stages with wins over Giada Rossi from Italy and the Romanian Dorina Vargatu before finding the experienced Federica Cudia from Italy too good in the semi-finals.
“I think I played quite well,” said Shackleton.
