A week on from Ellie McCartney’s historic Commonwealth Games medal, the scale of what she achieved is only now beginning to sinkin. The Enniskillen swimmer’s bronze-medal performance was not just a personal triumph, but a landmark moment for Fermanagh sport. In a county that has produced its fair share of sporting stars, McCartney’s achievement ranks among the very best. Across Fermanagh there will be young swimmers who watched that race and saw what is possible. Regardless of what comes next, her Commonwealth medal has already secured its place among the greatest achievements in Fermanagh sporting history.
