Fencing Worlds: Alice Volpi crowned a second time

Italian raid on women's foil in Milan! Alice Volpi won her second world title on Wednesday by dominating her compatriot Arianna Errigo in the final (15-10).

Martina Favaretto having also gleaned the bronze, only one medal escaped the Azzurre, the other bronze, returned to the American Olympic champion Lee Kiefer.

The Italians of the “fioretto” therefore almost repeated on the biggest stage their four out of four at the European Championships last month.

Certainly the absence of the best Russians counted. Inna Deriglazova and Larisa Korobeynikova, Olympic vice-champion and bronze medalist in Tokyo, did not obtain the status of neutral individual athlete who would have allowed them to shoot.

But their presence at the Olympics is very uncertain. This last repetition promises for the strong weapon of transalpine fencing, returned empty-handed from Tokyo in the individual event.
