India's Fencing Teams Exit Early at Asian Games in Multiple EventsPreviousNext

At the Asian Games in Nagoya, India's fencing teams faced setbacks with the men's foil and women's epee teams exiting in the round of 16 after losses to Hong Kong (27-45) and Uzbekistan (29-45), respectively. Both teams showed competitive moments but could not maintain momentum in crucial relays. Separately, India's men's sabre and women's foil teams were eliminated in the quarterfinals by Korea and Japan. These results mark the end of India's campaign in several fencing events at the Games.
