The Tunisian Raoua Tlili won the bronze medal of the weight throwing (category F41), Saturday September 27, during the world para-athletics championships which are held in New Delhi, India, from September 26 to October 5. With a jet measured at 9.96 m, she finished behind the Colombian Mayerli BUITRAGO Ariza (10.21 m) and the Uzbèke Kubaro Khakimova (10.17 m).
A performance below its records
Reigning world champion, Raoua Tlili failed to approach her best brands: her world record set in 2021 (10.55 m) and her paralympic record signed in Paris in 2024 (10.40 m). However, she manages to maintain Tunisia on the podium in her favorite discipline.
Tunisia is represented at the New Delhi Worlds by 11 athletes (5 women and 6 men), engaged in various launches and racing events. Among them are Walid Ktila, Yassine Gharbi and Marwa Brahmi, headliners of Tunisian para-athletics.
