- IPC Announces Shortlist for July's Athlete of the Month
Great Britain's world and Paralympic champion archer Danielle Brown has won the public vote to become the International Paralympic Committee's (IPC) `Athlete of The Month' for July.
Brown won gold in the Individual Compound Open at the Para-archery World Championships in Turin, Italy, as well as two silvers in the Team Compound Open, thereby qualifying for the London 2012 Paralympic Games.
She has been nominated several times for the prestigious award, but, after securing 29% of the vote via the IPC's official Facebook page www.facebook.com/paralympicsporttv, this is the first time she has claimed the title.
She beat off stiff competition from the Dutch Wheelchair Tennis duo Maikel Scheffers and Ronald Vink who got 16% of the public vote. Scheffers and Vink won the men's doubles at the British Open and Wimbledon, Great Britain.
