Hungary was not without a medal in Tokyo on Sunday, and after Áron Szilágyi became the Olympic champion in the men’s sword, 23-year-old fencer Gergely Siklósi won a silver.
Réka Pupp was also close to winning medals, but the juggernaut lost the bronze bout with a gold point, so in the end he finished fifth, as did Istvan Penny with his 10m air rifle.
Although David Verasto was fourth, Katinka Hoszu came fifth, Victoria Mihalivary Farkas finished sixth in the 400m, Nandor Nemeth reached the semi-finals in 200, and the men’s 4×100 sprint relay will be in the final on Monday .
Zsófia Kovács also made it to the tournament finals, so you can get excited about that on Monday.
But we can also push for more Hungarians outside on July 26, like Caracas Hedwig going to the tatami, Penny Majoros playing table tennis, our triathletes and sailors going, our duels going on their feet, even our ladies. The water polo team will perform at the Tokyo Games.
And then we didn’t even talk about swimming,
On Monday, among others, the men’s 200m butterfly preliminaries will take place, with world leader Christoph Melak having a prime opportunity.
Long Katinka also swims in the mixed 200-meter preliminaries, with the three-time Olympic champion as the world’s best holder.
Miklós Ilku and Barnabás Palotai report to the Index on the events.
Follow us with Tokyo programs, Hungarian successes!
