Said Shaun Morley, England Team Leader, “Leon’s gold medal in Nice was a fantastic result against world class opposition.
In overcoming the world junior champion on his way to the gold medal marked a real milestone in Leon’s preparation for next summer’s Commonwealth Games and clearly demonstrates that Leon is not just a medal prospect but a genuine gold medal prospect for the Games.”
