Josh 4,920 Posted February 25, 2023 #4 Share Posted February 25, 2023 (edited) 5th for Eleanor Harvey (WR #4), and 11th for Jessica Guo (WR #8) at the Women’s Foil Grand Prix in Cairo, Egypt Guo lost to Pauline Ranvier (14-11) in the Table Of 16, while Harvey lost to Martina Batini (15-13) in the Table Of 8. A pretty good result if you ask me, although I do wish they made it onto the podium Kelleigh Ryan (WR #35) finished in 63rd, losing in the Table Of 64 to Ysaora Thibus (15-10) Other Results: Yunjia Zhang 52, Sabrina Fang T57, Jane Caufield 88, Nadia Hayes 126, Jessie Chen 130 Edited February 25, 2023 by Josh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Josh 4,920 Posted July 5, 2023 #5 Share Posted July 5, 2023 (edited) So I was looking at the Fencing Olympic Qualifying Rankings today. Was incredibly shocked to see how many Canadian athletes are currently in qualifying positions. Here's a rundown: (I believe if you qualify a team, you also qualify three athletes individually, but if anyone wants to correct me on that ) # = Rank in OQR Women's Team Foil (3) - Eleanor Harvey, Jessica Guo, Sabrina Fang Women's Foil - Eleanor Harvey (#7), Jessica Guo (#20), Sabrina Fang (#29) Notably no Kelleigh Ryan, as she can't seem to find her previous form. Women's Team Epee (4) - Ruien Xiao, Leonora MacKinnon, Marie-Frederique Millette Women's Epee- Ruien Xiao (#10), Leonora MacKinnon (#56, qualified through team event), Marie-Frederique Millette (#92, qualified through team event) Women's Sabre (1) - Pamela Brind'Amour (#12) Next highest Canadian is Tamar Gordon (#38), don't know where Gabriella Page is though. Men's Team Foil (4) - Blake Brozus, Maximilien Van Haaster, Patrick Liu Men's Foil- Blake Brozus (#31, qualified through team event), Maximilien Van Haaster (#34, qualified through team event), Patrick Liu (#35, qualified through team event) Alex Cai doesn't seem to feature on the Olympic Rankings. Men's Epee (1) - If Venezuela qualifies as one of the top-ranked nations, Canada will most likely grab the continental quota. For now, only Nicholas Zhang is expected to compete in Paris. Men's Team Sabre (4) - Fares Arfa, Shaul Gordon, Francois Cauchon Men's Sabre- Fares Arfa (#27), Shaul Gordon (#38, qualified through team event), Francois Cauchon (#46, qualified through team event) We qualified 9 for Tokyo 2020, and right now are in a position to qualify 14 for Paris 2024. Of course, it's still early stages though, anything can change. Edited July 5, 2023 by Josh Topicmaster1010 and intoronto 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
