Paralympic table tennis champion Natalia Partyka reached the last 32 of the Olympic women’s singles event after a thrilling late-night victory.
The 23-year-old from Poland, who was born without a right hand and forearm, beat Denmark’s Mie Skov 4-3.
Partyka is one of only two athletes, along with South Africa’s Oscar Pistorius, who will compete at both the Olympics and Paralympics this year.
Mea culpa: as a runner I spent a lot of time reading and talking about Oscar Pistorius these Olympics, but fuck yeah...
