The Paris 2024 Olympics has seen significant achievements and dramatic moments in fencing. Lee Kiefer of the U.S. won her second consecutive gold in women's foil, while her teammate Lauren Scruggs made history as the first Black U.S. fencer to win an Olympic medal in an individual women's event, taking silver. In men's foil, Nick Itkin secured a bronze to add to the U.S. medal tally. The U.S. women's sabre fencers struggled, all losing in their opening bouts amidst a backdrop of a match-fixing investigation. Tunisia's Fares Ferjani won silver in men's individual sabre, marking Tunisia's 16th Olympic medal. South Korea’s Oh Sanguk defeated Ferjani to take gold in the same event.
