Former Northern Advocate sports editor Cameron Leslie has won silver at the International Paralympic Committee world championships in Glasgow.
Leslie was competing in the the men's SM4 150m individual medley and finished with a time of 2:26.55.
He has dominated this event since the Beijing 2008 Paralympic Games and it took Russian Roman Zhdanov to swim a world record time of 2:25.24 to beat him.
This was Cameron's fastest time since London 2012 Paralympic Games and bodes well for 2016.
The New Zealand para-swimming team won three more medals, taking the number of Rio Games slots to four.
