Australian boccia players Kris Bignall (far left) and Tu Huynh (second from right) on their way to a bronze medal in the C1 WAD ramps pairs event at the 1996 Atlanta Paralympics. The pair adopted the nickname ‘Gruesome Twosome’ in an attempt to psych out their opponents in the bronze medal match. This was Australia’s first and – as at 2019 – only ever Paralympic medal in boccia.
