India’s Sheetal Devi won two archery gold medals at the Aichi-Nagoya 2026 Asian Para Games in Japan: in the women’s compound and the compound mixed team events.

Born without arms, she shoots with her feet and had already won bronze at the Paris 2024 Paralympic Games. “There is no limit to improving yourself,” she said after her wins.

On the same day China beat Japan 75-25 to win a fourth straight women’s wheelchair basketball gold, and wheelchair rugby returned to the programme for the first time in 12 years.
