Following the conclusion of the Rio 2016 Olympiad, UK Athletics launched an enquiry into the classification of its paralympic athletes. After this investigation was announced, Woodward - who had ceased to compete competitively in 2015 - released a public statement acknowledging that her decision to retire was based on her view that paralympic competition was unfair due to widespread misclassification of athletes. She said "I represented my country for a long time but if I can’t compete like I used to compete, because they’ve brought in people who are not like me in terms of disability, what’s the point?" This was part of a wider backdrop of controversy surrounding the classification of paralympic athletes; for example, Helmut Hoffman - the German team doctor at the 2015 International Paralympic Committee Athletics World Championships in Doha - said "I don’t want to say it was corrupt, but it was unfair".
