Happy for Ažukaitė, but next match with  Fiamingo don't bring much hope for Lithuanian fencing to be fair 

Glad to see  and  making to the top64 as well!

Ndolo represented Germany until 2022, she is a silver medalist in 2022, so it is no surprise at all that she is in the top 64

 Nagy already out in men's epee....

 

I hope we won't lose Andrásfi as well today.

Some really good performances by the  men in the individual epee. After mediocre performance in the pool stage, 3 of the 4 have managed to progress to round of 32 and all overcoming significantly higher ranked opponents.

 

They may well fall at the final hurdle to miss out on the main draw, but I think they will be pretty pleased with how the competition has gone for them. 

 

Looks like 2 of the guys have managed to get into the main draw

first disappointing outing for  

 

Gabriele Cimini couldn't even make the Main Draw of 64...that's not promising at all in perspective for the Team Event (where we desperately need a big score -at least making the gold medal match- to get back in contention for an Olympic spot)

 Reizlin will more than likely withdraw against Anokhin. Or at least that's what the Hungarian federation is suspecting.

Unfortunately, it's a clear out for Igor in men's epee. But we have some news about boycotting process so let's see how this turns out in future
