Oscar Pistorius will become the first double amputee to compete at Olympic Games after being included in the South African 4x400m relay team on Wednesday.
The 25-year-old’s selection comes five days after conceding defeat in a battle to run in 400m at the games, as he finished 0.22 of a second outside the qualifying mark of 45.30 seconds at the African Championships in Benin, the qualifier for the Olympics.
