Good result for 16 yo Leonie Ebert in Shanghai, she finished 6th in womens foil and jumped to 57th in world ranking. I thought that she would be fighting for world cup medals by now, but considering her bad results so far i guess we have to be happy about that result. Sadly she got into shape a bit too late to qualify for Rio.

Attachment is the great fabricator of illusions; reality can be obtained only by someone who is detached.

The Championships are the last event (together with the ongoing Pan-American Champs) before the Olympic Games where to sum up points good for the World Ranking, which will be used to fill the Table Draws of the Olympic Team Events (and partially for the Individual events, too)...

Day 1 is over with a lot of surprises in the Men's Foil and almost no surprise at all in the Women's Sabre...

 

Not a very good day for Italy, saved by the Bronze medal by Avola but with a lot of worrying performances by the other fencers, especially the girls...
