At the Paris 2024 Paralympics, India's para-cyclists Arshad Shaik and Jyoti Gaderiya faced disappointing early exits in their respective events. Shaik, making his Paralympic debut, finished 17th in the men's C1-3 1000m time trial, while Gaderiya finished last in both the women's C1-3 500m and 3000m individual pursuit events. China's Li Zhangyu and Amanda Reid secured gold medals in their categories, showcasing China's dominance in para-cycling. Meanwhile, Filipino swimmer Ernie Gawilan also missed out in the men's 200m individual medley, placing sixth in his heat but remains a strong contender for the men's 400m freestyle. Gawilan's coach noted the event served as preparation for his stronger event on Monday. Despite the setbacks, the athletes continue to represent their countries on the international stage.
