The 24-year-old swimmer clocked a time of 1 min 0.33 seconds in the 50m backstroke S2, beating China's Feng Yazhu and Ukraine's Iryna Sotska.
Yip's win follows nearly a week after she scored the first gold of the Rio Paralympics last Saturday. Gold medal aside, she set a new world record for the 100m backstroke event last week with her split timing of 59.38s.
