Ahead of Paris 2024, the IPC profiled Raoua Tlili's progression from her first Paralympic Games in Beijing to six gold medals across four editions. The Tunisian throwing champion described the importance of family support, patience and sustained training. She also hoped her visibility would encourage women to pursue their own ambitions. The feature was published before competition in Paris, so its six-gold total describes her record at that point rather than her eventual career tally after those Games.
