After a somewhat uncertain start, where Alexander Tsoronis had trouble finding the rhythm, he fought for a place in top 8 With only 1 win out of 6 possible, he would meet Choi from Hong Kong. Here, it was Alexander but his usual style and beat smooth with Choi digits 15-9. Thus, a spot in the quarterfinals guaranteed. In the quarterfinals was Alexander meeting European rankings # 1, Turkish Babaoglu. It was unfortunately too large a mouthful, and Alexander was beaten with the digits 9-15. Alexander said: "I'm obviously disappointed and very annoyed that I did not find the rhythm in my fencing on such an important day, but it has been very instructive, and it's an experience I certainly can use in my training towards the upcoming championships and I also on the mental level can work on. " Despite the fact that Alexander did not met its goal of a medal, then showed Fencing, however, that his level has significantly increased during the past year focused and intensive training of his two coaches Ferenc Toth and Malte Trier Mørch in Fencing Club Triangle. And with a top 8 position for both Junior Olympics and World Championships, Alexander has shown that this growth is stable and hence there is potential for further international highscores. |
