Chichester Open

08:40 Fencing competition

Finished last 16.

Warm up and preparation were all good. Got a good general warmup and a warmup bout ine.

Dropped one bout in first poule an two in second. Fenced well in first poule but was a little tight in the second.

Lost in round of 16 14-15.I was ahead the whole time. I scored good touches with AIP. After second period he started to pull me forward by retreating to the end of the piste. I should have just run down the clock rather than engaging with him. At 14-13 I counterattacked into one slow attack and then did a rushed attack where he scored a stop hit.
