Today we had a good chance for our first ever gold medal at the Asian Championships, OK maybe not the first , I don't have old results but at least the first gold medal after a long long time but we finished with a silver and a bronze. we have a good Sabre team now but Korea is just better and they have the individual and team title in Asia in this event for a long time.

 

today Rahbari beat two Koreans before losing to Gu Bongil in the final. out of our 4 Sabrists, they only lost to each other or the Koreans ! :p

decent results through the entire weekend for Italy...podium places in all the competitions and nice win by Mara Navarria in the women's individual epee (today's team silver in the women's epee is especially good and encouraging, since this is our worst discipline since many years and because finally we have a couple of new faces in our roster...even if I don't understand why they still chose Alice Clerici instead of the surely stronger Eleonora De Marchi among the youngsters) ...

Fencing is always our best chance to shine in the world of sports...:d

Miles Chamley Watson and Race Imboden knelled to their flag during national American anthem yesterday after American team won team gold medal , so Fencing also joined other sports in showing protest against Trump's politics and Racial Discrimination

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...:facepalm:

 

 

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)...
