Emmanuel Therond has reached the Last 8 of the Veterans World Championships in Daytona, Florida.
Emmanual sadly lost out to Frenchman Olivier Esquerre with a final score of 6 – 10.
A hard-fought fight with an initial advantage going to Olivier. Emmanual fought back with some stunning parries but alas it was not quite enough to overcome him. Emmanuel finishes 7th Overall in the Vet-50 Men’s Sabre.

Well done Emmanual. A fantastic achievement.
