Paralympics | A glistening gold medal made of sweat, tears and unbreakable will

By Hu Jiali and Liu Yangtao


"Every night when I lay in my bed, the same thought echoed in my mind -- I've trained so hard for the Games, and I have to win in Paris," Chinese shuttler Yin Menglu recalled after claiming the gold medal in the women's doubles WH1-WH2 with her partner, the Tokyo Paralympic champion Liu Yutong at the Paris Paralympics on Sunday.


The Chinese pair won the gold medal match 21-17, 21-19, by taking revenge on the defending champions Sarina Satomi and Yuma Yamazaki of Japan, who beat them in the Tokyo Paralympics final.
