Mariel Zagunis secured the #1 world ranking going into the 2010 World Championships with her repeat of the Pan American Championship in women’s sabre. Zagunis, the two time Olympic Gold Medalist, defeated Canadian Sandra Sassine 15-7 in the finals.
In the semi-finals, Zagunis faced off against team mate Ibtihaj Muhammad. She last faced Muhammad in the round of 8 at the New York world cup with the same 15-8 score. Joining Muhammad on the podium with the bronze medal was Dagmara Wozniak, who narrowly lost to Sassine 15-14 in the semi-finals. Daria Schneider (USA) finished 11th.
Men’s Foil: More medals for the United States
Miles Chamley-Watson (pictured right) took silver for the United States as Alex Massialas shared the bronze medal with Joao Antonio Souza (BRA). The US team rounded out a strong showing as Gerek Meinhardt and Kurt Getz finished 5th and 6th respectively.
Chamley-Watson started the elimination table with a close call and edged out a 15-14 victory over Brazil’s Marcos Cardoso, then defeated Raul Arizaga (MEX) 15-7 before facing off against #1 seed Gerek Meinhardt. Meinhardt had won his first two bouts 15-3 and 15-6. Chamley-Watson had the day today, however, with a 15-8 victory over Meinhardt. He then faced off against Massialas in the semi-finals, winning 15-12 before losing in the gold medal bout to Antonio Leal (VEN) 15-12.
Leal may have prevented an all-US final with his 15-14 defeat of Kurt Getz in the quarter-finals.
