The Beketovs of fencing?

[PeterGustafsson]

Hi!

In 1996, Alexander Beketov won the Olympic gold in ME, but AFAIK he has not posted any result of note since that. That got me thinking: Can he be the winner of a flash-in-the-pan competition?

Can anyone else name any fencer for which the difference between the best and 2nd best results is comparable - or larger - with that of Beketov? Any other fencer even coming close? Once we have some names, we can make a poll out of it!


Have a nice time!

Dal Zotto (76 MF gold medalist) might also be one such. Maybe even Mauro Numa, but I think he's done some rather good results as well. Beketov is clearly a flash in the pan result.
