Men's épée hurts, but we ended up as the 4th best European nation behind the "Big 3" of :ITA  :RUS  :FRA after a really hard qualification process in the team events, so I can't really complain. I think we have a chance to get one more quota in women's épée, we will have to decide who to send. Szász sadly doesn't seem to be back to her old Olympic winning form, so it might be best to send Kun or Muhari.

looking at the qualification table right now, JPN have "only" 1 team qualified for the Home Games, but they also have 1 man/woman already qualified as individual in all the remaining 5 weapons, which means that they could potentially raise their participation to 5 full teams (they have 8 wild cards to manage, if I remember correctly) by adding 2 athletes in 4 different disciplines...

 

so, I guess that we would eventually have 5 weapons with a 9-team draw at the Olympics (and only 1 with the basic 8-team start list)...

 

my pick is that Men's Team Sabre will be the only 8-team tournament...

Nations that are fighting at the Zonal qualifiers in men's épée and have at least one fencer in the Top100 on the world ranking:

 

Europe: :POL  :ISR  :ESP  :FIN  :AUT  :CZE  :DEN  :EST  :GER  :LUX  :ROU  :BEL 

 

Asia: :VIE  :HKG  :KUW  :UZB 

 

America: :CUB  :ARG  :COL  :CHI  :PER  :CAN 

 

Africa: :EGY  :MRI  :SEN 

Hi,

stupid question but are only fencers in the Top100 eligible for the Zonal qualifiers?
And will there only be 1 fencer per nation, or are multiple participants from one country allowed?

No, all fencers are eligible whose nation hasn't qualified so far, I just wanted the list those who are more likely to qualify based on their world ranking. 

 

And as far as I know the countries can only send one fencer per event to the Zonal qualifier.
