Tommy Taylor was a British Paralympic athlete who won sixteen medals across five sports, including ten gold medals.[1][2] Taylor was treated by Ludwig Guttmann after an accident in 1956 caused severe paralysis. He went on to compete at numerous Paralympic Games, finding particular success in para table tennis from Rome 1960 to Arnhem 1980.[2] Eight of Taylor's gold medals came in table tennis, along with one in snooker[3] and one in lawn bowls.[1][4]
