Fencing FIE World Championships 2023


Recommended Posts

This situation with Greece should inspire the people in charge to make new qualification rules for fencing. It makes no sense whatsoever that we won't have one of the top fencers in the world in Paris just because Greece doesn't have a good enough third fencer. It's cruel, this isn't judo or wrestling where every NOC only gets one place.

The draw for tomorrow is out, this is how the potential Round of 16 looks like...

 

Men's epee

 

:FRA v :NED  ||  :KAZ v :CHN

:JPN v :GER  ||  :KOR v :UKR

:HUN v :ISR  ||  :VEN v :ESP

:ITA v :EGY  ||  :SUI v :CZE

 

Women's foil

 

:ITA v :GBR  ||  :GER v :ESP

:JPN v :AUT  ||  :CAN v :UKR

:FRA v :SGP  ||  :CHN v :KOR

:USA v :HKG  ||  :POL v :HUN 

 

Men's epee is a clusterfuck, I don't want to say anything about it until the first few rounds go down. In women's foil the Germany-Spain and Poland-Hungary matches will be extremely important for the European quota. Egypt will have to beat Colombia in men's epee to secure their quota.

In case you want an estimation, this would be mine for tomorrow in women's epee.

 

WCh placements:

 

1. :FRA  2. :KOR  3. :ITA  4. :POL  5. :HKG  6. :UKR  7. :SUI  8. :ISR  9. :CHN  10. :USA  11. :EST  12. :HUN  13. :CAN  14. :JPN  15. :SWE  16. :EGY

 

Which would result in this Olympic ranking after the Worlds + Continentals + 1 World Cup

 

1. :FRA  256 pts - World 1

2. :KOR  220 pts - World 2

3. :ITA  156 pts - World 3

4. :HKG  144 pts - World 4

---

5. :POL  140 pts - Europe

6. :USA  135 pts - America

7. :UKR  124 pts

8. :HUN  120 pts

9. :CHN  120 pts - Asia

10. :SUI  118 pts

11. :CAN  115 pts

12. :EGY  108 pts - Africa

13. :EST  101 pts

14. :ISR 100 pts

15. :JPN  96 pts

16. :MAR  68 pts

17. :SWE  68 pts

 

 

Obviously it's never this predictable and @phelps might disagree on if this would be the most predictable outcome tomorrow anyway. But you can get an idea where this is going before the last 4 World Cup event. 

The 9-16th placement matches are done in women's epee, so I am updating these.

 

WCh placements:

 

1. :FRA  2. :KOR  3. :ITA  4. :POL  5. :HKG  6. :UKR  7. :SUI  8. :ISR

5. :POL  140 pts - Europe

6. :USA  135 pts - America

7. :UKR  124 pts

8. :HUN  122 pts

9. :SUI  118 pts

10. :CHN  114 pts - Asia

what did he do?

In addition to always being argumentative, he is always covering the target. Today in the semifinal he did it 5 (!!) times

:KOR without a single individual medal at the Worlds for the first time since 2005. Their implosion is strange. It's as if Japan kinda took their place.

    • 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.    
    • Philip Rivers' possible return to NFL while being a semifinalist for the Hall of Fame certainly wasn't on my bingo card. But well. So far he's only on the practice squad
    • Thursday December 11th, 2025 - Round-Robin Day 4 Schedule (GMT +1)   12:30   Austria vs Ukraine 16:00   Norway vs Kazakhstan 19:30   Slovenia vs France
