World Bronze for Romania's Sabre Team

Romania’s men’s sabre team won the bronze medal at the Fencing World Championships in Tbilisi. The Romanian sabreurs had a spectacular day in Georgia — defeating Russia and France, and coming close to the grand final after an excellent technical match against Hungary. Unfortunately, they lost to the Hungarians, but won against Japan (Mao Kokubo, Kaito Streets, Shido Tsumori, and Kento Yoshida) with a score of 45–41 in the bronze medal match.

The Japanese led 30–22, but the Romanian team, coached by Valeri Șturbabin and Tiberiu Dolniceanu, managed to turn the score around in the last three bouts. Ursachi delivered an exceptional bout, winning it 13–4, and Vlad Covaliu and Radu Nițu secured the victory.

At the 2023 World Championships in Milan, Mălina Călugăreanu achieved the best individual performance for Romania, finishing 8th in women’s foil, while the best team result was 10th place in men’s sabre.
