4 out of 4 Egyptians qualified to women's final in tetrathlon wch

according to my quick calculations, these should be the fencers qualified for the Foil events at the YOG 2018...

 

Women's Foil:
Martina Favaretto (ITA), Europe #1
Rebeca Candescu (ROU), Europe #2
Christelle Joy Ko (HKG), Asia & Oceania #1
Yuka Ueno (JPN), Asia & Oceania #2
May Tieu (USA) Pan-America #1
Magdalena Lawska (POL), Europe #3
Karolina Zsoldosi (HUN), Europe #4
Anabella Acurero Gonzalez (VEN), Pan-America #2
Fu Yingying (CHN), Asia & Oceania #3
Noah Hany (EGY), Africa

Men's Foil:
Diego Cervantes (MEX), Pan-America #1
Kenji Bravo (USA), Pan-America #2
Maciej Bem (POL), Europe #1
Chan Pak Hei (HKG), Asia & Oceania #1
Armand Spichiger (FRA), Europe #2
Filippo Macchi (ITA), Europe #3
Xu Jie (CHN), Asia & Oceania #2
Jonas Winterberg-Poulsen (DEN), Europe #4
Kwon Jung Sung (KOR), Asia & Oceania #3
Loaay Marouf (EGY), Africa

in addition to the first 10 athletes per weapon (max 1 per NOC), 3 more men and 3 more women will get their spot at the YOG 2018 based on a very controversial (and subject to different interpretations) ranking...

 

those places should go to:

 

Veronika Bieleszova (CZE), Europe (Women's Epee)

Katina Proestakis (CHI), Pan-America (Women's Foil)

Chen Yi-Tung (TPE), Asia (Men's Foil)

Christiaan Bester (RSA), Africa (Men's Epee)

 

meanwhile I have absolutely no idea of how to spread the 2 spots reserved to Oceania: according to the World Champs and the Asia & Oceania Continental Champs results, Australia should get a place in the Women's Foil (their best event in Verona) and the same should happen to New Zealand, who only participated in that competition...

but this would break the "max 1 per weapon" rule...

so, there's a chance that AUS would be forced to select someone in the men or women's Sabre, meanwhile, if they want to give the second spot to Oceania at any cost, they can only let them participate in the only event they entered in both the World and Continental Champs (which is the Women's Foil)...

 

therefore, I guess it's better to wait for some official comunication before taking this list for granted...
