    Full replay from the ExCeL - South Arena 1 as China's Sun Yujie defeats Korea's Shin A Lam to twin the women's individual fencing epee gold medal at the London 2012 Olympic Games (30 July 2012).
    Fencing was included for the first time at the 1896 Games in Athens, and has remained on the Olympic programme since then. The women's fencing competition entered the Games in 1924 in Paris. Today, men and women compete in individual and team events, in which three types of weapon are used: foil, epee and sabre. The foil was, at first, the only weapon used by women, until the 1996 Games in Atlanta, when women's epee was introduced. Women's sabre appeared for the first time on the Olympic programme in Athens in 2004.

    I agree that screaming doesn't violate any fencing etiquette (though it irritates me when my opponent screams aft every point). It certainly is a tactic to encourage oneself while discouraging/intimidating the opponent but it's also a natural reaction to the tension and pressure. I've fenced all 3 weapons and can say that out of them all, épée plays on my nerves the most.

    Even though I am on the side of Sun but Shin got my respect since she was defeated unfairly in the semi-final and she got only 15 minutes to reconcentrate to the game.

    The way Sun smiled after her last touch was beautiful :) As for her screaming, I don't believe it to be a poor show of etiquette. As you fence, you hold in a lot of internal stress (calculating, moving through your own steps as well as your opponent) and honestly the screams are more of a joyous release of all of that tension than anything else.

      I just love fencing now because of the K Drama that I watch called
      Twenty Five Twenty One
      There's a similar moment on that Drama that was somewhat you could tell that it's very similar scenario to Shin A Lam and Heidemam
      But it's not a never ending second
      But they were tie with scoring and then one of them had to score
      And the protagonist won, but her opponent that time was her enemy and her idol and defending
      Champion refuses to accept and starts to cry, she insists that she is faster and she hits 1st
      You should watch that K Drama if your interested on
      K Drama + Fencing

    Shin has my respect the whole way through. Think, she could have gone through to gold in the individual but lost because of the Heidemann scandal with the clock, then lost bronze because she was still upset and tired after the previous bout. Then her team lost the gold medal to China. So she could have won gold for both, but lost the chance for gold because the clocks didn’t count fractions of a second in a game that deals with fractions of a second, and her team couldn’t maintain the lead in the team match.

    1. Lam always attacked Sun's foot. That's ok. But in audience's opinion, this kind of attack is not as powerful as that of Sun;
    2. Lam is not confident. She always hit her head and showed disappointment when she lost a point. It is not because of Sun's screaming. Actually, in the first two sections, Sun was far behind but looked confident.
    3. Lam's performance was a little of chaotic. Especially in the last part of the game. So I think those are the reasons why Lam lost the game.

    Lam screamed, too~ It's a way of encouraging. A number of athletes were not treated fairly in the 2012 Olympics. Actually, Korean athletes were brave that some of they gained what they deserved at last. But Chinese athletes always gave up their rights. It is the judges that should be blamed.

      jackrabbit08 actually, this is something you see in fencing a lot, in all weapons and in both men and women. They’re not bemoaning anything. It’s a way to keep yourself pumped up and to release some of the tension that builds throughout the bout. I’ve screamed a few times myself while fencing some very close bouts. It’s a very normal thing to see in fencing.
