Vektor 3,195 Posted April 15, 2023 #151 Share Posted April 15, 2023 Apparently the Poznan World Cup found its new home, in . It will be held in June. So yeah, FIE is winning this fight so far. It seems the World Cup will continue, just with less Western European hosts. And without Ukraine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They will ultimately lose because the Olympics will either get cancelled or boycotted to the extent that it is discredited.

And if they won't participate in individual events, athletes like Olha Kharlan won't have a chance to get the individual quota from the ranking if her team fails to qualify.

If these rumors are confirmed, then, of course, we will have to focus on the teams. In our case, it doesn't make much sense to pay attention to the current ranking, because fencers like Igor Reizlin or Alina Komaschuk missed most of the team events. We have certain drafts for each weapon, because Ukraine is one of the strong fencing countries and we cannot give up in such a case. About Olga - I think she will be able to qualify through the European qualification, but I would like a redemption of Ukraine in the team saber Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
