time for the Continental Championships 2022...

 

first to be completed, the Panamerican Championships

 

USA dominated the field, but not as usual at least in Foil and Epee competitions, with Venezuela, Canada and Argentina all being capable of stealing one or more gold medals from the US powerhouse.

 

Right now, only Saber is still a US only affair.

 

here's the list of this year's Panamerican Champions:

 

women's Individual Epee: :ARG Isabel Di Tella
men's Individual Epee: :VEN Ruben Gascòn Limardo
women's Individual Foil: :CAN Eleanor Harvey
men's Individual Foil: :USA Alexander Massialas
women's Individual Sabre: :USA Anne-Elizabeth Stone
men's Individual Sabre: :USA Daryl Homer


women's Team Epee: :USA United States
men's Team Epee: :VEN Venezuela
women's Team Foil: :CAN Canada
men's Team Foil: :USA United States
women's Team Sabre: :USA United States
men's Team Sabre: :USA United States

:GER Alexandra Ndolo, world silver medallist in women's epee one month ago, will switch to :KEN , her father's country, in the road to Paris 2024.

big loss for the German team...basically, a nail on their coffin (not that they were real contenders, but still)...

Damn, there goes one of the teams for the European quota. I guess the Hungarian girls now have a slightly better chance to qualify.

:ITA Arianna Errigo is going to give birth to a couple of twins next March, she announced on her social media.

 

she won the individual silver and the team gold medal at the 2022 world champs when she was already pregnant :yikes:

 

she also said that she already got pregnant just after Tokyo 2020, but she lost the baby after 3 (very difficult) months, causing her a lot of mental troubles.

 

coming back to the gym and practicing the sport she loves was the only reason she could recover from that tragedy and look ahead.
