9 medals for Cayman in first two days of Island Games
In the first two days of competition in the 20th International Island Games in Orkney, Scotland, Cayman athletes secured nine medals, including two gold.
Cayman’s 32-member-strong team is among 1,660 competitors from 24 islands who are taking part in a dozen sports throughout the week. The games, which are being held in Orkney for the first time, were officially declared open on Saturday by Princess Anne.
Gymnast Karthik Adapa has had an impressive start to the games, winning a total of five medals so far.
His performance on the parallel bars earned him a score of 9.450 and a gold medal in the final in that competition. He also won a silver medal for pommel and another silver for rings, as well as two bronze medals for the floor and high bar.
