The Mosellane Lisa Barbelin will not accede in the third round of the World Shooting Worlds, in South Korea.
After having won bronze at the Paris Games, Lisa Barbelin hoped to confirm the world championships in Gwangju, South Korea. But the Moselle was eliminated in the second round by the Ukrainian Veronika Marchenko (7-1). A premature outing that recalls the difficulty of chaining after an Olympic medal.
His teammates have not been more successful. Amélie Cordeau, 18, reached the third round before giving in against the South Korean Kang Chae-Young (6-4). Victoria Sebastian has lost extreme accuracy in the second round against the Brazilian Ana Luza Sliachticas Caetano (6-5). The French women’s team therefore starts from these Worlds without a podium.
For Barbelin, 25, this underperformance illustrates a complicated 2025 year. After the Euphoria of Paris, the Archère admitted having undergone strong pressure, accentuated by its studies. The national technical director, Benoît Binon, remains confident: the objective is to allow him to flourish again, for the next major deadlines. In the medium term, Lisa Barbelin keeps Los Angeles 2028 games online.
