They continued today the Pentathlon World Cup, which will be held until Monday, June 14 in Cairo, Egypt: the qualifications of the Olympic specialty of the male individual, which tomorrow will see the ranking round of fencing and on Sunday the remaining rounds of the final.
I’m among the best 36 that will be played medals and three Olympic passes even the blues Giorgio Malan (direct qualification) and Giuseppe Mattia Parisi (last of the rescued), while they can’t Matteo Cicinelli (first of the excluded) and Pier Paolo Petroni.
Direct qualification (10 places for each of the three qualification groups) for Giorgio Malan, tenth in Group C at 1099 points, while he has to wait for the repechage (for the 6 best scores) and the conclusion of the three groups Giuseppe Mattia Parisi, which turns out to be the sixth and last of the fished out, after 13th place in Group A at altitude 1085.
Mocked, in a sort of remote fratricidal duel, Matteo Cicinelli, 14th in Group C always at altitude 1085, ma for a matter of tenths of a second in the laser run Parisi goes to the final while Cicinelli is the first of the excluded and now plays the role of first of the reserves for the final. Also deleted Pier Paolo Petroni, 17th in Group B at 1044.
The program of the world championship will continue tomorrow, Saturday 12th with the women’s final and the men’s ranking round, while the men’s final will end on Sunday 13th. Closing of the event with the mixed relay, scheduled for Monday 14.
