The F37 and F38 classifications are for athletes with coordination impairments (such as hypertonia, ataxia, or athetosis) that affect the lower trunk, legs, or one side of the body. 

Apart from Chinese athlete Chengjie Yu, the F38 athlete, the other three participants in the final were F37 athletes. Due to the presence of different classifications, RAZA points determined the winner.
