Records tumbled as Tseng Lung Hui got 650 points in the ranking round of Ind. recurve W1/W2, renewing the Paralympic record held by Korea's LEE Myeong-Gu, who ended up 6th place this year.[2] Later on, Tseng claimed his second bronze medal at the end of the knockout stage.

The 2012 Summer Paralympics is the first ever Paralympic Games to include javelin throw competition for visually-impaired women. In this event, even though Chinese Taipei's Liu Ya-Ting finishes 5th, she still holds the Paralympic record of F13, given that the top four players are all F12 athletes.
Two-time winner of the women's −75 kg weight class, powerlifter Lin Tzu-Hui aimed to claim her third Paralympic gold, but proved in vain. With potent competitors from China and Nigeria both breaking the records in their additional attempts, Lin failed to overcome the record she set for herself － 137.5 kg. She ended up as the bronze medalist with her first attempt, a lift of 137 kg.
