Wheelchair racer Pongsakorn Paeyo completed a golden hat-trick at the Paralympic Games in Tokyo yesterday.
Thailand also got two more bronze medals from wheelchair racer Saichon Konjen and taekwondo star Khwansuda Phuangkitcha as the sport made its Paralympic debut.
In the final days before Sunday's closing ceremony, the 24-year-old Pongsakorn won his third gold of the Covid-delayed tournament and fourth for Thailand as he retained his 800m T53 title with a new Paralympic record time of 1:36.07.
World record holder Canada's Brent Lakatos, who lost to Pongsakorn for the third successive event, came second in 1:36.32. Pierre Fairbank of France was third in 1:39.67.
Other Thai racers Pichet Krungget and Masaberee Arsae were fifth and seventh respectively.
Pongsakorn also won the 400m T53, successfully retaining his Rio crown, and 100m T53 events.
Saichon finished third in the 800m T54 event, clocking 1:34.19. Marcel Hug of Switzerland won gold in 1:33.68 while China's Dai Yunqiang took silver in 1:34.11.
Prawat Wahoram, Thailand's most decorated Paralympian, finished sixth while Putharet Khongrak was seventh.
Taekwondo star Khwansuda Phuangkitcha celebrates with the Thai flag after winning bronze.
Thailand have so far won four gold medals -- all in wheelchair racing -- with Athiwat Paeng-Nuea claiming the 100m T54 title.
Pongsakorn will get 21.6 million baht in reward from the government for winning three gold medals.
Under the National Sports Development Fund's bonus scheme for Paralympians, a champion will get 7.2 million baht, a silver winner 4.8 million baht, and a bronze medallist three million baht.
Paralympic debutante Khwansuda outclassed Ziyodakhon Isakova of Uzbekistan 18-2 in the bronze medal match of the women's K44 49kg taekwondo competition.
Khwansuda lost to Meryem Kavdar of Turkey 13-34 in the the quarter-finals but re-emerged for the evening repechage round.
In repechage quarter-finals, the 21-year-old Thai beat Danijela Jovanovic of Serbia 35-3 and then edged Enkhtuya Khurelbaatar of Mongolia 33-30 in the semi-finals to advance to the bronze medal contest.
Khwansuda, who was making her Paralympic debut, became Thailand's first world champion in Para taekwondo, following her victory in the K44 49kg event at the 2019 tournament in Antalya, Turkey.
Cycling queen
Cyclist Sarah Storey became Britain's most successful Paralympian ever.
Storey returned to the Fuji International Speedway to claim her 17th Paralympic victory in the women's C4-5 road race in 2hr 21min 51sec.
She was flanked again by fellow Briton Crystal Lane-Wright as the pair completed a third one-two of the Games. Marie Patouillet of France took a bronze behind the duo for the second time in Tokyo.
The indomitable 43-year-old's golden hat-trick in Tokyo makes her the most decorated British Paralympian -- dethroning swimmer Mike Kenny, who won 16 golds between 1976 to 1988.
"In that last descent I didn't touch my brakes, I just went for it," she said after the race, which went ahead in treacherous cool, wet and foggy conditions.
The victory left her "overwhelmed", Storey said. "I feel like it is happening to someone else... but crossing the line first felt so good."
Storey won the individual pursuit at the velodrome last week and triumphed in the C4-5 road time trial on Tuesday.
The event has so far avoided any major coronavirus clusters, although 275 positive tests have been reported by organisers overall, mostly among Japan-based staff and contractors. Of 13 new cases confirmed yesterday, all but one live in Japan.
