Kenny Allen delighted to make Paralympic record in archery

Great Britain's Kenny Allen has claimed that he is "having a ball" after setting a Paralympic record in the men's archery individual standing.

Allen managed to rack up a total of 651 points in the round rankings, which was also a personal best for the archer.

"I know it's only the ranking round but to shoot a PB is great and to end up in number one is not too bad either," The Telegraph quotes Allen as saying. "I'm having a ball, it's all great fun and I'm simply enjoying it."

British compatriot Phil Bottomley also clinched a place in the final with a third-best score of 630 points.
