Two titles in twenty minutes: the Blues had a golden day this Tuesday at the World Fencing Championships in Cairo, Egypt, with the titles of Romain Cannone in epee and Ysaora Thibus in foil. Ysaora Thibus, 31 years old, is licensed at Bourg La Reine. This title is a nice revenge, since she had won team silver at the Tokyo Olympics, but had been taken out in the second round individually.
Romain Cannone, 25, licensed in Saint-Maur (Val-de-Marne)surprised him at the Olympics by winning France’s first gold medal.
