    I'll take up this review. Judging by the size of this article it won't take long and if it makes GA it could be one of the shortest. I'll leave down some initial comments within 48 hours as I have another GAR before this, but I could review this one first to get it out of the way... I mainly focus on copyediting issues. Thanks!

    This is a short and compact article but currently this does not meet the GA criteria as the only things holding it back are the length of the lead and the copy editing issues of the Career section. Before this has a chance of passing I would strongly recommend re-writing the last paragraph of the Career section as the prose does not make any sense (I left the comments above). I'll put this on hold for seven days until those issues can be addressed and if those concerns have been clarified then this article would have a good hope of passing GA. Thanks!

    I did an extensive copy edit on all the Winter Paralympian articles, but seem to have missed this one. My apologies. I trust that all the issues have been addressed now. Hawkeye7 (talk) 22:26, 6 April 2014 (UTC)Reply

    Sorry for coming back to the review late as I have been very busy for these past few days. There has been a lot of effort put into this article and now the prose of this article meets the GA criteria! Thank you for your extensive copy edit of this article as now all of those issues I have mentioned above have been addressed to. Well done on all the extra work - it looks like another Olympian GA!
