Women's 200M T47 | Final | Athletics | Tokyo 2020 Paralympic Games

Young of the United States. And Li of China. Set for a start. Final of the women's 200 T47. >> And we are under way. Good clean start from all of the athletes. As expected, it's Brittni Mason of the United States in the middle of the track but her fellow countrywoman starting to take it to her. Deja Young. An upset on the cards is it? It's all happening out here on the outside lanes and it's be Vera Andraide. It's Vera Andraide who takes this 200m final from Venezuela. At a time of 24:52. Brittni Mason of the United States the silver. And then it will be the Polish athlete to get the bronze. What a performance from the Venezualan. >> She ran a brilliant bend. -- Jeromin bronze. >> The Venezualan basically took off! >> Yes, brilliant second half. And personal best there of 24. 52. For Vera Andraide. Deja Young from the United States as well. Keeps her head down nice and still, gets herself up to speed and starts to lift the head. And then it's the American just inside, Deja Young, who had the lead through the first 100m, but then Vera Andraide... >> I was expecting the stagger to help the inside runners, but Andraide's run a perfect race in lane 7. >> We talk about the fact that a lot of the athletes haven't had a lot of competitions, therefore a lot of the historical data that we have, actually doesn't have that much relevance necessarily because coming in here, she would be third at this year's World Championships, they would have been third in the 400m, and she didn't have that big number next to her name that some of the athletes had. She creates her own slice of history in winning that 200m final.
