Athletics: Thea Lafond makes history for Dominica with triple jump gold

After the earlier St Lucian first-ever medal, we have one for the Commonwealth of Dominica – and it’s gold, too!

Thea Lafond‘s 15.02m national record and world lead is enough to win the women’s triple jump, ahead of Jamaica’s Shanieka Ricketts (14.87) and Jasmine Moore of USA (14.67).
