Want a take a moment on World Fencing Day to thank some people and organizations who played a huge role during my Paris Olympic journey. I apologize if I forget to mention anyone!!

First and foremost, my love Gerek! No words needed.

Coach - we have been working towards Olympic dreams for 20 years together. It has been an honor. Stefani - we lived out so many highs and lows and worked on the details to be better together. Andrew and Allen - thanks for letting us torture you. Bluegrass Fencers’ Club - inspired by your hard work and wonderful attitudes all the freakin’ time. Cannot forget Christina who made the most absolute bomb Team Kiefer-Meinhardt shirts.

My men’s foil team - I love you all! Thanks for not holding back your profanity on my behalf.

Ralf, my WF Olympians, and the senior WF travel team - what a freakin’ three years of growth! Too much to say to get started.

My family (Kiefers and Meinhardts) of course - you all are the backbone of our fencing journeys and always bring joy and support in the smallest yet most important ways. In this statement includes all of the family members and friends who are so close that they are like family- many of whom were cheering us on in person at the Grand Palais.

Mason - I move better and am more thoughtful about my body than ever before.

Peggy - you made traveling much more fun plus you prevented my physical and mental decompensation many times haha. Thank to the other sports med practitioners at the USOPC (especially Kelcie), University of Florida, and the Steadman Clinic who gave me excellent and timely care! Extra big shout out to my Uncle Bill who always graciously lets us rope him into our hand and forearm injuries.

Karen - an absolutely wonderful human and sports psych who was a game changer immediately before competition and during the post-games blues.

USA Fencing staff - Jennifer, Kate, Bryan, and others, you all are absolutely wonderful and a joy to work with.

Kaila and the Smith&Saint Team - you all made it possible for us make a living off of fencing the past few years - a feat!!!

My long-term partners - I am so grateful

🏅 **Fencing Referees Play Key Role at Paris 2024 Olympics**

The Paris 2024 Olympics showcased the extraordinary skills of not only the athletes but also the dedicated referees who ensured the integrity of the fencing competitions. Referees in fencing are essential for maintaining fairness, enforcing rules, and making crucial split-second decisions that can determine the outcome of matches.

# # # Key Highlights:
- **Expertise and Experience**: The referees at Paris 2024 were selected from the highest ranks of the international fencing community, with many having years of experience and a deep understanding of the sport.
- **Technology Integration**: This year, the integration of advanced video replay technology played a crucial role in assisting referees with accurate decision-making, ensuring that every touch and action was correctly adjudicated.
- **Diverse Representation**: The referee panel included individuals from various countries, reflecting the global nature of the Olympics and the inclusivity of the sport.

# # # Voices from the Field:

🗣️ "Being a referee at the Olympics is both an honor and a tremendous responsibility. We are here to ensure that the spirit of fair play is upheld at all times," said one of the veteran referees at the event.

The dedication and impartiality of these referees are vital to the success of the competitions and are deeply appreciated by athletes and fans alike. Their contributions highlight the often unsung heroes of the Olympic Games.

Tunisian fencer Fares Ferjani achieved a significant milestone by winning a silver medal in the men's individual sabre at the Paris 2024 Olympics. Ferjani's journey to the final included a notable victory over the top-seeded Egyptian fencer Ziad Elsissy in the semi-finals. Despite losing to South Korea's Oh Sanguk with a score of 15-11 in the final, Ferjani's performance was extraordinary and earned him Tunisia's 16th Olympic medal​ (Vogue Arabia)​​ (MILLE WORLD)​​ (Xtrafrica)​.
Ferjani's achievement is particularly impressive given the challenges he faced leading up to the Olympics, including the absence of sponsorship from Tunisian companies due to his low social media following​ (Vogue Arabia)​. This victory adds to Tunisia's proud Olympic legacy and highlights the nation's resilience and dedication to excellence in sports​ (Maghreb Magazine)​.

🗣️ "I spoke with 40 companies here in Tunisia, but none wanted to sponsor me because I'm not famous on Instagram."
