Men's 200m - T54

Gold medallist - Kenny Van Weeghel (NED)

"At the beginning of the race, I hoped my arms would go as fast as possible. During the race, I've been slowed down by my friend that slided a little bit, it was quite scary but we avoided the crash. I'm happy for the gold medal, but felt less powerful than in London. Still 100m to go, hoping for another gold medal!"

Gold medallist - Luis Zebeda (MEX)

Women's shot put F11

Gold medallist - Asunta Legnante (ITA)

"It's never easy to win a contest you have to fight against the measure. I am quite disappointed because I thrown under 17 meters, I had technical issues with the put, it is actually too small for my hands. The sooner it will be fixed the sooner I'll set a new world record."
