4th event in a raw whitout medals in women's foil Give me back Vezzali

 

 

and there was only Volpi in quarterfinals (Errigo and Mancini lost their respective round #1 assaults)...

women's foil is going through a really deep crisis...and who knows when (if) we're able to get back to the old glory days...

 

among the men, instead, we have Cassarà vs Meinhardt (USA, who defeated Foconi in the round of 16) and Trani (who defeated Garozzo 15-14 in the previous round) vs Kruse (GBR) in the quarterfinals (actually both matches should be over since quite a while, but the Chinese live scoring website is not so "live" and doesn't have the QTRs results yet)...

 

not to mention, the never-working streaming...

 

FIE...

Also Luperi vs Imboden in the quarterfinals.

But the Italian Federation should have a word with Errigo for next season, it's clear that competing at the highest level in 2 weapons is not possible anymore.

yes, you're right...I just forgot to add that...

 

Errgo is no longer a competitive athlete in any weapon...she has to reset her mind before taking any decision about her future and possibily our NF should help her to do it (but I guess that everything's gone with the Rio blowout...she's never been the same anymore after that shameful event)...

 

p.s. I don't know if it's just me, but live scoring and streaming are KO once again...

 

why they still go to China? it's always the same story with them!

anbd this year we also have the World Champs there...

[phelps 8,728]

all Foil GP results updated (finally!)...

 

men's Team Sabre also updated (Gold Medal Match set to start @ 3.30 p.m. CET, but they're a bit late with the program...the Bronze Medal match is still running)...

Cool, we have naturalized  Park Sang Young?

 

[phelps 8,728]

First podium finish for one of our most promising youngsters, Federica Isola among the girls, meanwhile second shameful performance in a row for the boys (no one beyond the round of 32)...

I'm really scared of what's happening to our men's Epee team, after they did so well in the recent past (Rio 2016 team Silver above all)...

 

Next weekend (women's Sabre in Tunisia) will be the last World Cup weekend in the 2017/2018 season...not to be missed, especially the Individual Finals on Saturday night (21.30 local time, 22.30 CET) @ the wonderful Roman Theatre in Carthage...
