Malta’s representatives at the 2020 Paralympic Games, Thomas Borg and Vladyslava Kravchenko, made their debut at the Games on Friday morning.
Para Athletics athlete Thomas Borg enjoyed a positive start at the 2020 Paralympic Games when setting a new personal best in the qualifying heats of the men’s 100m T47 at the National Stadium.
