Nice to see Brazil appear on the medal podium (WS). Hope another small
fencing nation will appear on the women's sabre podium tomorrow when
the European bronze medallist, Siobhán Byrne from Ireland, fences in
the Junior event. Good luck Siobhán!!!!

BTW, Cross had an absolute stormer in women's foil, winning all but
one of her DEs (including the final) 15/5 or 15/4. Her toughest one
was a 15/8.
