Is that a joke or is it actually happening?
It is no joke at all, it is actually happening.
I'm not an expert on fencing. But my rudimentary knowledge is that it is first to score 15 points wins. So I guess that what you saw was another Hong Kong fencer. I think there are three from hong kong in all.
What is interesting is that the gold medallist was almost knocked out in the quarter-final. He was 14-10 down. Great come back.
Extract from SCMP:
"After clinching the 15-11 win, Cheung embraced his coach, Greg Koenig, and finally let his steely mask slip with an outpouring of emotion. “Today he became a man,” declared Koenig afterwards.
Cheung earlier produced an incredible fightback to beat Russian Olympic Committee’s Kirill Borodachev when staring at elimination in the quarter-finals, coming from the brink of defeat at 14-10 down."
Yes indeed, woulf like to see him getting meaningful sponsorship. He just another 食碗面 反碗底

2028, they're adding WWE and NASCAR. 2032, Monster Truck and World Slapping Championships.
This one is a joke.
Look forward to Beer Pong, Mini Golf, and extreme hotdog eating at the 2060 Olympics.

Oh yes I know the breakdancing is real. But mine are a joke.
I think I’d rather watch Monster Truck than breakdancing. Staying in Texas for almost two decades does that to you.

You'll love this. When India get to host their game they'll lobby hard for....... kabbadi and all its variants to ensure super power India gets all the gold. lol
The Chinese olympic team bagged 7 medals on the third day but no gold unless you include HK.
