GOLDEN wonder Duncan Scott is being inspired by comeback kid Adam Peaty to make sporting history with 100 days to go to the Paris Olympics.

The flying Scot became the first ever Brit to win four medals at a single Games in Tokyo, with one gold and three silver.

And he could compete for SIX medals this summer as part of a 33-strong swim squad hailed as the "greatest ever" by Team GB chiefs today.

Duncan, 26, is one of seven athletes to book a place from the University of Stirling.

He admitted he was disappointed to miss out on individual gold in Tokyo three years ago.
