Ahmad Al-Mutairi is a Kuwaiti para-sport athlete who has broken numerous world records in wheelchair racing. Al-Mutairi was introduced to sport while at school, playing wheelchair basketball. One of his PE teachers saw potential in Almutairi and suggested that he joined the Kuwaiti Sports Club for the Disabled. Initially he joined the basketball team, but after five months, one of the trainers advised him to try other sports. Almutairi tried out wheelchair racing and found that he excelled at the sport. In 2009 he entered his first track and field competition, held in the United Arab Emirates. In 2011, he took part in the World Championships in New Zealand. In 2012, Al-Mutairi was selected for the Kuwait team at the Summer Paralympics in London. The next year, Al-Mutairi travelled to Lyon to compete in the 2013 Athletics World Championships. His first major medal success came the following year at the 2014 Asian Para Games in South Korea where he was able to win two silver medals. Throughout 2015, Almutairi continued to improve his times, and set a new world record in Switzerland. Later that year he represented Kuwait at his third World Championship, in Doha, Qatar. In the final he set a championship record of 17.53 to beat his nearest rival by over a second and a half. 7 Read the article and decide if the following sentences are true (T) or false (F). 1.
