yeah, but they didn't get the same attention of the NBA and NFL players...

actually, I think that nobody in the US does know what they did...

 

 

by the way, this week it's time for the men's Epee and the women's Sabre to start their respective World Cup season campaign...

 

in today's Individual events, we're in front of a Ukranian festival in Bern (men's Epee), with 3 of them reaching the semifinals (to be contested later this afternoon, at 5 p.m CET - live streaming available on Youtube...the link on the official site of the event: HERE)...

 

in Orleans (women's Sabre) we are at the quarterfinal stage (at 6 p.m. CET - also in this case live streaming available through the official website of the competition: HERE) and we still have 3 Italians, 2 French women and 1 girl each from Romania, Poland and Hungary left...

to be noticed, the Russian complete failure and Arianna Errigo's best result in a Sabre World Cup event so far (she went out in the round of last #16, losing only 14-15 against Manon Brunet of France)...

 

Fencing isn't popular in the US , many Americans doesn't know anything about the sport , that's why they didn't get attention

once again, Italy are on the podium in both of today's events...

but...there's always some "but"...

but not the expected guy in men's sabre and "only" a silver medal in women's foil, which is not the result we normally want to see from our golden girls...

so, good, but not very good news for our fencing...
