Yeah, 4. The general rule is that you want a Top8 placement here at the very least, otherwise it's hard to qualify.

If this won't cause a shitstorm, nothing will.

At least now we for sure where FIE stands. They stand with their Russian overlords. Throw them into the trash with AIBA.

 Caitlin Maxwell takes out 9th seed  Araceli Navarro to make it through to the last 16 of sabre. 

 

The GB fencing guys aren't challenging for medals, but so far the squad has been delivering some pretty solid results.

 upsets  in women's epee!

 

Bad news for Canada, this likely means that the US won't be in the Top4 on the world ranking and will take the American quota.
