"The idea was to show that nothing is impossible and to go out there and do it," Grinham told the BBC. It was a tremendous victory for Paralympic archers Grinham and Macqueen. Their gold medal in the mixed team event cemented their position at the top of the discipline, as Great Britain emerged victorious from their head-to-head clash with Iran.

The most remarkable and eye-catching aspect was that Grinham achieved this success, and her second gold medal of these Games, in a very unique state, she is pregnant. Grinham now has a gold medal in the mixed team event, and that wasn't all; the British archer also won individual bronze last Saturday.

The final was fiercely contested, with the British pair leading the way. The Brits led by just one point (39-38) after the first round. At the halfway point, the score was tied at 77-77 and everything was up for grabs. Iran's Hadi Nori made a small mistake and the British duo capitalised on it to take the gold.

"All I wanted to do at the end was jump, cry, shout and celebrate," Grinham told BBC Wales. "However, being so pregnant," said the archer, whose feat is undoubtedly remarkable given her condition, "the most realistic thing to do was to crouch down and take a moment, then I could give hugs and so on. Double the effort, double the joy.

Her presence at the Paralympics is a powerful message to women. It is a testament to their strength and perseverance. She is an example of overcoming all obstacles and sacrifices, which has unsurprisingly caught the attention of the media. 

The BBC reported, "Grinham had to go to a Paris hospital for a check-up before she was cleared to compete. It was just a scare for the British archer. Her partner in the golden duo was 33-year-old Macqueen, who was paralysed in a motorcycle accident at the age of 18."

Great Britain went on to reach the final, and defeated Australia 150-141 in the quarter-finals and Italy 156-149 in the semi-finals. Grinham had already captured the world's attention with the revelation that she was seven months pregnant after winning individual bronze last Saturday.

 The archer said after her performance that she was worried about her baby's movements as the demands of the sport meant she had to stand still and stretch for long periods of time to execute her shots.

For Grinham, last Saturday's bronze medal was her first time on the podium since winning silver in the mixed team event a tthe Rio 2016 Paralympic Games. This is a category for athletes with "lower levels of disability in their upper or lower limbs", according to the event programme.
