Highlights - the Gold Medal Bout [Final] of the Men's Individual Foil Fencing Event at the Tokyo 2021 Olympic Games. On the Left - Cheung Ka Long of Hong Kong (FIE Rank 4) Cheung has never won a non-zonal major FIE Event at the Senior Level, however his results this past Olympic Cycle indicates that it was only a matter of time before Cheung wins his first Gold (Interestingly, Garozzo had also never won a major FIE Senior event before he won the Olympics in 2016). Cheung won the Asian Championships in 2016, then placing Silver in 2017 and 2019. Cheung had also medalled three times this Olympic Cycle, with a Bronze at the 2017 St. Petersburg World Cup, Silver at the 2019 Turin Grand Prix, and Bronze at the 2019 Anaheim Grand Prix. On the Right - Daniele Garozzo of Italy (FIE Rank 3) - reigning Olympic Champion from Rio 2016. Garozzo won his first World Cup in 2017 (beating Cheung in the semi-finals) at St. Petersburg. Since then Garozzo has medalled at quite a number of events, including a Gold at the 2017 Tbilisi European Championships; Bronze at the 2017 Leipzig World Championships; Gold at the 2019 Cairo World Cup; a Silver at the European Championships in 2018 and 2019, among other results. These two have fenced once before. Garozzo beat Cheung at the 2017 St. Petersburg World Cup 15-12.
