PARALYMPIC GAMES – Swimming, with Ugo Didier and Laurent Chardard in particular, will undoubtedly offer some great moments, as will horse riding at Versailles, fencing at the Grand Palais, table tennis and athletics.
The Paralympic Games are not slowing down on Tuesday, September 3. After several days of competition, France is in the Top 5 and does not intend to leave. Today, it has the opportunity to go for new gold medals. Athletics and swimming will be closely watched. Here is the program for the day.
