Bath's Dan Bethell is guaranteed Paralympic silver, but he's only interested in upgrading to gold.

Bethell was beaten in the final of the SL6 men's singles badminton three years ago in Tokyo.

And he vowed to go one better after his confident 21-7, 21-9 semi-final win over Thailand's Mongkhon Bunsun on Sunday.

He was beaten by India's Pramod Bhagat in Japan, and he faces his team-mate, Kumar Nitesh, the world's top ranked player in the battle between the number one and two seeds.

“I’m feeling pretty good. Its obviously every athlete’s dream to be playing in a Paralympic final but the main thing is that I’m not getting complacent," said Bethell.

"I haven’t come here just to be in a Paralympic final, I did that in Tokyo and I got a silver medal. I’m here to win that gold medal. It's just important now to keep my feet on the ground, do what I need to do, go back, and recover and get ready for the match.

"The atmosphere in there was incredible. Walking out and having such a strong GB contingent here, friends and family from my side and my teammates and fans that have come over to support. It was an amazing crowd, and I just loved being out there."

Bethell has looked in imperious form at the La Chapelle Arena and hasn't dropped a set since starting his campaign against Jurgen Kloop's best mate last Thursday. Indeed, in four matches he has dropped just 46 points.

But he's also been enjoying himself with the French food.

"The village is fantastic, there is all the little extra features, the Michelin star chef, the bakery," he added.

"I’ve been absolutely loving the bread and everything like that. It's been an amazing experience as well as being on court."
