Fencing FIE Cadet & Junior World Championships 2018


Recommended Posts

unbelievable success by the Italian guys...:yikes::bowdown:

they've been able to beat a real super-team from Russia with people like Lokhanov, Pozdniakov and Kostenko, all of them multiple European and World title holders and already well established specialists among the senior ranks...

that's what we can call "a big upset"...

 

and the US girls almost did the same against the mighty Russians...they've just been unlucky with the final hit...

 

so, the Sabre events are also over...and in this discipline it's been mostly a Russian fest...in fact, they won 3 out of 6 titles, meanwhile Italy, Hungary and Romania won 1 Gold medal each...

 

therefore, after 2 weapons, Russia are leading the medal table with 4 Gold medals followed by Italy with 3 and Hungary with 2, while France, Hong Kong and Romania have 1 Gold medal each.

USA, POL, KOR, KAZ, JPN, MEX, ESP, GER are also in the medal table, but with no Gold...

 

starting tomorrow, it's time for the Foil competitions, which will lead this year's Worlds to an end...

First on the stage, the women and men's Junior Individual events...

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...

    • I'm far from perfect but for the most part my skeletons are funnier than they are problematic - just stuff I prefer to not share on International television :P   I also don't have an SO to cheat on (...anymore, since I am a divorcé and single-ish xD )

    • Some words about Ghiotto: for me he doesn't have the same personality/character, like Lollobrigida- I also wrote about this yesterday about case of Wiklund. Ghiotto can only win/win medals when he's in 100% shape. Otherwise, he gives up mentally. He can't break through in a difficult moment during the race and try to salvage at least some of his race. Today, the silver/bronze medal was within reach- all he needed was to win the heat against Begrsma (when was the last time he lost to him in a 10 km race?). In my opinion, Lollobrigida had the totally different personality, that Ghiotto did. When she would a similar mental, like Ghiotto, so she have given up yesterday with max. 2/3 laps remaining and finished 4. Another thing is that even without the right mentality, Ghiotto today had his worst 10k race in over 5 years and there's no excuse for that. Unless he was sick or injured, but I don't know anything about that yet.
    • When I was recently in Warsaw in December and walking its streets, I have the impression that for about 5-10 years, 1/3 of your athletes of most of popular sports summer and winter, will be probably came from Ukraine/Belarus etc., but I could be wrong. Unfortunately, the war contributed a lot to this, and it's not over yet    Poland did a great business with Semyrunyi, but it was certainly influenced by the fact that they have an indoor track and good training conditions there, but it could have been as you wrote, that today he would have won a medal for Kazakhstan or Germany. At all, Poland currently only has excellent sprint teams: men's and women's, so someone like Wladimir would be very useful in the long distances, because without him, Poland is practically nonexistent there. And yet, they have one more medal.    The Czech Republic, however, has the greatest luck: no indoor track at home, no major home events like the Olympics, etc, all the attention on ice hockey, but for 20 years they've had Sablikova and now Jilek- probably for next 20 years. Sport isn't always fair. Actually, Slovakia could at least get someone like that now, just to balance things out, instead of always having lucky of one country
    • "Hey man, did you touch that rock?" "No, I didn't" "Are you sure, because it looked like you did. You're a good guy, but it looked like you did" "I promise you I didn't" "If you say so" "FUCK OFF!"   -Bad dude   "*mumble mumble* easy to make shots when you touch the stone *mumble mumble*" walks away "Who touched the stone?" Surprised Pikachu face "Who touched the stone?" Even more surprised Pikachu face "Fuck off"   -Not great, but understandable.    If you think someone cheated or made a mistake, talk to the official or confront them nicely. It's not like these guys don't know each other. It's not like Team Canada or Team Sweden hasn't been here before.   This can be turned around and put on the Swedes lashing out over being terrible their first three games. It doesn't appear anyone needs to cheat to beat them right now. 
    • Uf.  Finally managed to watch the last few skaters.  That was painful (Malinin + all the others...).  Happy for Shaidorov  .  He had a great skate.  Now off to nurse some wounds...   (Can we get a reverse upset and have Campbell Wright pull off a biathlon medal?)
