China sweeps 5 golds on first day of Tokyo Paralympics

China swept all the four golds in wheelchair fencing.

Wheelchair fencer Li Hao beat Ukraine's Artem Manko to claim China's first gold medal at the Tokyo Paralympics by taking the men's sabre individual category A crown. This was also the first gold the 26-year-old won in his Paralympic debut.

"I wanted to try my best and what we practiced as usual. I was just using my pace to get every point," Li said.
