American Hunter Woodhall stormed to victory in the T62 400m at the Paralympics in Paris, a month after his wife Tara Davis-Woodhall won Olympic long jump gold.

Woodhall won in 46.36 seconds at the Stade de France, ahead of world record holder Johannes Floors of Germany and Olivier Hendriks of the Netherlands.
