Timeline

1989

Oksana Masters (born June 19, 1989) is an American multi-sport Paralympic athlete of Ukrainian descent from Louisville, Kentucky.

Oksana was born in 1989, in Khmelnitsky, Ukraine, three years after the Chernobyl nuclear disaster, with several radiation-induced birth defects, including tibial hemimelia (resulting in different leg lengths), missing weight-bearing shinbones in her calves, webbed fingers with no thumbs, and six toes on each foot.

She was abandoned by her birth parents, and given to a Ukrainian orphanage, she would continue to transition to two more orphanages until age 7.

In the orphanages was frequently beaten, men raped her regularly, sometimes more than once a day, while the women who worked there pretended not to notice.

In the orphanage, Oksana witnessed another orphan girl, her best friend Lainey be murdered.

The children in the orphanage were always on the brink of starvation and malnutrition, so one night Lainey and Oksana sneaked out to get food, but Oksana slipped and hit a chair.

Men hearing the noise found Lainey.

Oksana managed to hide but heard them hit Lainey six times.

Her best friend had passed away as a result of the trauma she received.

After she turned 7, Oksana was adopted by Gay Masters, an unmarried American speech therapy professor with no biological children.

1997

After moving to the United States in 1997, both of Oksana's legs were eventually amputated above the knee—her left leg at age nine and her right leg at age 14—as they became increasingly painful and unable to support her weight.

Oksana also had surgery to modify her innermost fingers on each hand so they could function as thumbs.

2001

When she arrived in the U.S., her mother was a professor at the University at Buffalo; she moved to Louisville, Kentucky in 2001 when her mother took a faculty position at the University of Louisville, and graduated from the city's Atherton High School in 2008.

2002

She continued afterward and began adaptive rowing competitively.

2010

In 2010, she competed at the CRASH-B Sprints, setting a world record in the process.

In preparation for the 2012 London Paralympic Games, Masters teamed with Rob Jones, a United States Marine Corps veteran who lost both legs to an IED explosion in Afghanistan.

On September 2, at the 2012 London Paralympics, Masters and Jones finished third—winning the first-ever United States medal (bronze) in trunk and arms mixed double sculls with a final time of 4:05.56.

They finished behind China (gold) and France (silver) while just edging out Great Britain.
