Great Britain's swimmer Sam Hynd reveals sibling rivalry

Hynds wants "payback" on brother

Great Britain's Paralympic swimmer Sam Hynd has revealed that he wants to get closer to his brother Oliver in the pool for tonight's SM8 200m medley final.

The British pair comfortably secured a place in the final after Oliver clinched a time of 2:27.95 with Sam just behind him in 2:28.88.

"I was only less than a second behind," said Sam. "Hopefully I'll get some payback tonight."

Oliver will line up in lane 2 for the final with his brother Sam next to him in lane 3.
