Al-Amiri wins Saudi's first global fencing medal
Saudi national fencing player Khalifa Al-Omari achieved a historic milestone by winning a bronze medal in the épée event at the World Championship "Grand Prix" in Hong Kong. This marks Saudi Arabia’s first medal at the Fencing World Championships and makes the Kingdom the second Arab country, after Egypt, to win a global medal at the men's level. Al-Omari advanced to the semi-finals after victories over players from Luxembourg, Korea, Italy, and Japan, before losing in the semi-final to Swiss athlete Lukas Malkoti. This achievement is an important milestone in the development of Saudi sports, highlighting the sector's support within the Kingdom, and follows his securing two other medals earlier this year.
