Go Hannah!

[@LucByard]

No interview? Surely NBC had a representative there to congratulate her on winning gold for her country?

[@H20fanatic20]

I wish they explained what the categories are, like what does S9 mean. It really puts you off watching because you have no idea how they judge on their categories

[@carlmorrow1600]

S9 is disability like cerebral palsy

[@allien7987]

Also people with amputations!

[@jeremybeaird3608]

I'm not put off by watching athletes who have trained most of their lives compete and succeed. I could not care less what their designation or disability is.

[@Gitn2it]

@@carlmorrow1600 Thank you for the explanation. Never watched the para Olympics before. I missed a lot of excitement.
