Lindberg's time was 2.14,31. Afterwards, she was extremely disappointed.

It's very frustrating. It's the worst I've ever done at a Paralympics, she says to SVT.

She was particularly dissatisfied with the first turn.

Terrible. I missed the first turn. What absolutely shouldn't have happened.

I turned way too early, so I barely even touched the wall, she says.

Valerija Sjabalina, neutral flag, won fairly convincingly. She finished with a time of 2.05,10. Silver and bronze went to Great Britain: Poppy Maskill and Louise Fiddes.
