Warren Gatland wins third Grand Slam with Wales

The New Zealander has achieved a record feat in rugby union.

Warren Gatland became the first coach to win three Six Nations Grand Slams after Wales finished the job by beating Ireland 25-7 on Saturday.

Here, Press Association Sport takes a look at his record achievement.
