Fencing Qualification to Tokyo 2020 Summer Olympic Games

[Makedonas 2,155]

So happy our girl Theodora Gkountoura has officially qualified now! In 2019 she became the first Greek fencer to win a medal at the World Championships. Now it's time for her to become the first Greek fencer to win an Olympic medal since 1896!

I thought that I should do this comparison between Tokyo and the previous Olympic team events. I will edit this post later today when Russia or France qualifies in Men's sabre.

M Épée (3/8)
W Épée (6/8)

so, the women's Team Sabre field is completed...

in the women's Individual Sabre, instead, we have to wait for the Continental tournaments, but so far we already have 3 fencers from any of the 8 Nations qualified to the Team competition, possibly some Japanese wild cards and the qualified athletes via World ranking:

 

 Olga Kharlan

 Theodora Gkountoura

 Misaki Emura

 Gabriella Page

 Bhavani Devi Chadalavada
