4 years ago Imre won the Men's Epee WCh for us at the age of 40, and now Siklósi wins it at the age of 21. :d

 

Young world champions on the men's side so far (22 and 21). 

Congrats! Really impressive performance, especially because epee is usually dominated by old athletes. Hungary seems to have an endless pool of talents and constantly produces new world class athletes.

Huge congratulation to Siklósi, very impressive perfromance from a 21 years old. So far, it's a successful WC on home soil, but the team performances are going to be the most privotal...

Yeah... the individual medals are great, but this will be a failed WCh for us if the teams flop. We need to qualify at least two teams (I guess we can realistically qualify three at best if everything works out perfectly, the men's epee team and the two sabre teams?)

Yesterday it was quite a strange day for Italy...

 

it started as one of the potential most disappointing day of the Century, but then it suddenly turned out to be very exciting and promising until the medal session...when the disaster came back with all of its power...:facepalm:

 

first Santarelli, who started very well against Siklosi (4-1 ahead in a couple of minutes), but after that flashy start, he went out of the match, technically and mentally...he took a 12-0 partial that would have killed an elephant and had to be satisfied with a Bronze medal, that would have been considered a great success before the competition started, but once you see the names of the other 3 medallists, you understand that's more a wasted chance than a great success...

 

by the way, unexpected but really exciting ride by the young Hungarian Gergely Siklosi...and not only he won a well deserved gold medal, he did it in style, showing a really attractive kind of fencing, not the usual boring epee schemes...

congrats to him! :hatoff:

 

p.s. fun fact: the Russian TV commentator for yesterday's events was Sergey Bida's mother...I just can't imagine what her feeling was during her son's matches and how she managed to be professional in a moment like that (being a former top level athlete herself probably helped a lot, I guess)...

 

on the women's side, the competition would have been disappointing in any case, as you can't lose the reigning world champion and no. seed like it happened to Volpi...

but what happened in the medal session really hurts and makes the day a half disaster...and don't tell me that 2 Bronze medals in the women's Foil are a good result for Italy...simply, it's not true!

first Errigo lost to Ranvier in such an irritating style...she went 7-13 down taking the same kind of hit at least 10 times (showing not to be there with her mind at 100%, as usually happens to her in the the last 3/4 years), then she got back to 13-13 in about 15 seconds of fencing! :hyper: showing all of her class for a short while...finally, she lost her mind once again taking the 2 most stupid hits in the world in 3 seconds and therefore losing the chance to play for Gold...

 

no comment on the second semifinal between Di Francisca and Deriglazova, with one of the best women's Foil matches of the past few years completely ruined (and turned around in the final outcome) by a woman that should go to work with pigs in a farm, rather than destroying the sport of fencing...:facepalm::wall::redcard::spank::bones::hairpull::thumbdown:

 

so, the final match between the Russian and the French girl was not that exciting, with Deriglazova being too good for Ranvier and always in control of the bout, even if Ranvier fought very well and didn't give up anything easy to the Queen of Foil of these last few years...

and Today's start of the day looks just like yesterday...another Italian reigning champion and no. 1 seed already out in the early stages! :yikes::nopompom::facepalm::zip:

 

I really hope that these painful individual events are just a prelude to a triumphant ride in the team events, which are a lot more important, as they are the key to success for the Olympic qualification...:mumble:

    • Obviously impossible to know in advance but in 2022 all ten skaters Canada qualfiied skated individually, and 9/10 competed in a relay as well.
    • 4-3  over  at the break, Norway with hammer.
    • whatever you heard is just speculation. no one knows at the moment, probably even the orange himself.   and Iranian athletes failed to get visa so many times before. even female athletes. there is no pattern, it's just too random.    and yes Iran has a system of compulsory military service for men, and there is 50% chance for anybody to be randomly drafted by IRGC affiliated organizations. that's the case for Taremi and few others in the current team.  
    • Would you believe the NCAA Indoor season has already started?      
    • Some changes that I've noticed:   3x3 Basketball: With the expanded 12 team field, one extra team per gender qualifies through world rankings, one extra team qualifies through the universality driven tournament and there's now an Olympic Qualifier series to award the final quotas.   Beach Volleyball: Continental qualifiers have have priority over the World championship and World Rankings quotas and there's now Olympic Qualifier Series quotas.   Canoe Sprint: World ranking system now in place and will be used instead of awarding world championship quotas. Road Cycling: 2 nations ranking quotas per gender moved to universality.   Track Cycling: Sprint and Keirin ranking list is now combined and will award 14 quotas per gender. Previously it was 7+7. Team pursuit down to 8 quotas from 10. 2 of the quotas have been moved to madison (one additional team) and 6 to the omnium.   Fencing: Can get a Continental quota of you finished in the top 24 of the rankings. It was previously top 16.    Hockey: 2 pro league quotas replace two qualification tournament quotas.   Judo: 5 less universality places and 4 more Continental places. For men, there's two more spots for Asia, one less for Oceania and 1 more for the Americas. For the women, there's one more spot for Europe, one less for Oceania and two more for Asia.   Modern Pentathlon: Less quotas awarded through world rankings as a result of quota cuts.   Open Water Swimming: Introduction of world ranking qualifier.   Sailing: In general, seems to be more quotas awarded at the last chance regatta and less quotas at the World Championships   Shooting: One less quota handed out at each World Championship and the return on World Cup qualifiers.   Swimming: Olympic qualification and consideration times renamed to A and B standard. B standard is now 1% slower than the A standard compared to 0.5% in 2024. Stroke 50s have their own direct qualification events and have minimum time standards instead of A and B standards. Qualification times have been nuked again. B standard selection process has also changed.   Volleyball: New revised format. Continental championships first, then world championships followed by world rankings. In 2024, it was 3 qualification tournaments and then world rankings. Only 3 countries per gender will qualify by world rankings now compared to 5 in 2024
    • For Italy, the match against Japan and likely the final match against Estonia will be a safe/relegation game, but I'm think that whether the match against Estonia will be decisive on anything, if we have 0 points after 4 matches. We're currently the worst team here – we have 0 points and are taking significantly fewer shots than our opponents in each match. Japan and Estonia are looking better for now and unfortunately, without significant improvement play starting tomorrow, we'll likely be relegated to the fourth division. With the absence of Russia and Belarus, this will be a shame, even for the weaker 2006/2007 age generation. Especially, since we are playing this tournament at home. For anyone could have competed with a good shape, except perhaps Hungary, who are currently the best team in the tournament.
    • They shouldn't promise additional spots to countries that qualify 3 athletes in each distance, because then taking those spots away isn't fair. For example, in Italy, Previtali won the 500m QO for country but he would likely have to stay at home because the staff probably would have chosen Casinelli for the relay (Casinelli won't be competing individually at all). I don't know what the situation is in Canada with the fifth-place skater? Will this person only compete in the relay, or will he also be a reserve there? 
    • That's too bad. Athletes who finish in the top 32 (or 36 for the 1590m) should be the priority over the 5th athlete from a relay country.   So Croatia loses their 2nd women's quota, Hong Kong loses their only women's quota and Poland loses their 3rd women's quota.   This means that Great Britain, Slovakia and Ukraine should fill up the rest of the 1500m field since they are the highest placed reserves that doesn't require an additional quota.
