Italy continued its dominance through the final day of the 2026 World Fencing Championships in Hong Kong. The women’s foil quartet (Martina Batini, Martina Favaretto, Arianna Errigo, Anna Cristino) captured gold by beating the United States 45‑29, completing an unbeaten run that began in the round of 16 and included victories over Israel, Hungary and Japan. The women's foil triumph was guided by coach Simone Vanni and took place at the AsiaWorld‑Arena venue. The victory solidified Italy’s lead on the overall medal table. The women’s sabre team finished seventh after wins over Japan and Korea and a narrow 45‑44 loss to France. The men’s épée squad placed thirteenth, falling to Hungary 45‑43 after earlier wins against China and Great Britain. The men’s sabre team ended the competition in eighth place. With these results Italy topped the championship medal table, finishing with eight medals: four gold and four silver. The haul confirmed Italy as the leading nation of the tournament, improving on its earlier tally of three golds, four bronzes and an additional podium before the final day.
