Skipper Penny Taylor has turned in one of the finest performances in Australian basketball history, in leading the Opals to a 89 – 71 victory over France at the Rio Olympics.
The Aussies are now 3 wins from 3 matches in the Olympic competition, with games against Japan and Belarus still to come.
With Liz Cambage in foul trouble early, Taylor stepped up to the mark to lead her team home in a display that left three time Olympian Rachel Sporn in awe at the captains efforts.
