Flora Duffy made Olympic history on Tuesday, winning the women's triathlon in Tokyo to give the tiny island of Bermuda its first gold medal.
Duffy, 33, won in a time of 1:55.36 ahead of Britain's Georgia Taylor-Brown, with American Katie Zaferes taking the bronze.
Her success makes Bermuda the smallest nation in terms of population – about 70,000 – to win a medal at the Summer Games.
In a race delayed by 15 minutes because of slippery conditions after heavy rain overnight, Duffy took control in the final running section.
She opened up a lead of almost a minute after the first of four laps and was never under threat from then on.
Taylor-Brown had a flat rear tyre in the cycling section.
Bermuda's only previous Olympic medallist was boxer Clarence Hill in 1976.
What sanctions would be reimposed?
Under ‘snapback’, measures imposed on Iran by the UN Security Council in six resolutions would be restored, including:
- An arms embargo
- A ban on uranium enrichment and reprocessing
- A ban on launches and other activities with ballistic missiles capable of delivering nuclear weapons, as well as ballistic missile technology transfer and technical assistance
- A targeted global asset freeze and travel ban on Iranian individuals and entities
- Authorisation for countries to inspect Iran Air Cargo and Islamic Republic of Iran Shipping Lines cargoes for banned goods
