As commenced on 11th October, World Vet Fencing Championships is taking place in Daytona Beach for the first time. In addition, USA, the first-time host, is leaving no stone unturned to make this event one of a kind. Along the same lines, USA’s fencing legends are making all possible efforts to make this event one of a kind while keeping up with the expectations of their nation. 

Notably, the first day marked the initiation of the task to etch the names of USA’s fencing legends in the annals of history. However, the USA’s exceptionally talented fencers have added another chapter by clinching gold while shattering a 5-year dynasty at the World Vet Fencing Championship 2023. How did the USA make this big move?

USA’s Fencing Squad Shattering “Five Years Streak”

The USA’s hosting has been fortunate for its fencing team as, from Day 1 of the event, they have been continuously under the spotlight. Similarly, the USA’s Men’s Vet Fencer’s team has clinched the gold medal in the Vet Men’s Saber Championship. In a recent story shared by USA Fencing on their Instagram handle, it was captioned, ” Team USA’s gold medal in the Vet Men’s Saber Team Event ensa a run of five straight for Italy, which has won in 2016, 2017, 2018, 2019, and 2022.”  

On the other hand, Team Italy’s Vet Fencers has always been a center of attraction in world championships. However, something unexpected happened this year as they lost their 6th year in the streak. Although they have been champions for the past five years, 2016, 2017, 2018, 2019, and 2022, they could not secure the place this time.
