Statement on women’s combined class discus event F35/36 result

In today’s women’s combined class discus event (F35/36) incorrect medals were awarded following the use of inaccurate results data.  We sincerely apologise to the athletes affected.  The inaccurate data also affected the Men’s Shot Put F42/44 although the final medal placing was not impacted. 

Omega is currently uploading the correct data and the final results for the Women’s discus F35/36 event will be amended and restated. A new Victory Ceremony will be held during tomorrow morning’s Athletics session.

All combined class field events use the Raza System - a points scoring system where final positions are determined by points rather than distance.  It uses a statistical model based on population of each class, level of impairment and performance. Each year an analysis of results is taken and the Raza System is updated accordingly.

The correct results table for  women’s combined class discus event (F35/36) is:

Rank Name NPC
1 WU Qing CHN
2 POMAZAN Mariia UKR
3 PROUDFOOT Katherine AUS
4 BAO Jiongyu CHN
5 CHILEWSKA Renata POL
6 van ZYL Chenelle RSA
7 OLIVEIRA Marivana BRA
8 MALCHYK Alla UKR
9 HERNANDEZ FLORIAN Martha Liliana COL
10 MUNOZ Perla Amanda ARG

This replaces the previous inaccurate results table:

Rank Name NPC
1 POMAZAN Mariia UKR
2 WU Qing CHN
3 BAO Jiongyu CHN
4 CHILEWSKA Renata POL
5 PROUDFOOT Katherine AUS
6 van ZYL Chenelle RSA
7 OLIVEIRA Marivana BRA
8 HERNANDEZ FLORIAN Martha Liliana COL
9 MALCHYK Alla UKR
10 MUNOZ Perla Amanda ARG
