Carly's brother Paul wins four gold

medals at Special Olympics


Curtis Cup teenager Carly Booth's 19-year-old brother Paul turned up at Balgownie today to support his 17-year-old sister in her bid for the British women's open amateur championship.
And Paul certainly knows what it takes to produce a medal-winning performance - he won not one but FOUR gold medals in the Special Olympics at Leicester a few days ago.
"I don't think anyone has won all four gold medals available in the power-lifting," said father Wally, who was an Empire (Commonwealth) Games wrestling silver medal-winner in his younger days.
"So he won the overall junior champion award. I'm a power-lifting trainer so I've been able to make the most of Paul's strength and potential."
