There are quite a lot of people who are able to play table tennis with disabilities but only a few make it to the high levels of the sport and even less compete against able-bodied world champions.

However, Polish player Natalia Partyka, who was born without her right forearm, has proven nothing is impossible in table tennis as she is one of the very few athletes who have competed at the Paralympics and the Olympics.

The 25-year-old is one of only 12 people to have participated in both Games and the only one to have taken part in at least four Paralympics and two Olympics.
