Faybe Bejura: As is the fencing, so is the result

Ukrainian woman gives negative assessment of her work in Paris

Ukrainian Joan Fabe Bejura commented on the final result of the Ukrainian national team in the team epee competition at the 2024 Olympics in Paris.

“Emotions from the Olympics? I don’t know, I need to rest and then collect my thoughts. I need to rest from everything.”

“Such fencing, such is the result. How do I rate my performance? I don’t know by 30%. What prevented me from showing more? We will analyze it with the coaches after the competition. Maybe because of the personal competition I am upset, I don’t know.”

The Ukrainian women’s epee fencing team took sixth place in the team competition at the 2024 Olympics. The blue-yellows lost to China in the quarterfinals (41:45). The Ukrainian team then went to the lower bracket to fight for 5th-8th places.

The Ukrainian women confidently dealt with the Egyptian team (45:31). In the match for fifth place, the Ukrainian team lost to the South Korean team – 38:45. The Ukrainian women won two of nine individual fights in the match with the Koreans.

In singles, Joan Fayby Bejura lost in the 1/16 finals to the Frenchwoman Oriane Mallot-Breton (13:14). Her compatriots, Vlada Kharkova and Elena Krivitskaya, dropped out of the competition in the 1/4 finals.

The 2024 Summer Olympics will end on August 11. The competition will feature 329 sets of medals in 32 sports. Ukraine is represented in Paris by 140 athletes in 23 sports – this is the smallest representation of the blue and yellow during the Olympics.
