Sabre supremos still at the cutting edge

South Korea continues dominance of Asian Games fencing competition with another masterful campaign

South Korea once again dominated the men's sabre at the Asian Games, as Oh Sang-uk and Gu Bongil pocketed the gold and silver individual medals respectively in Hangzhou on Monday.

Now the Korean stars hope to take that momentum into next year's Paris Olympics.

"I am still happy. I am happy for my teammate. It's no problem for me. The fact I didn't get my fourth consecutive gold medal is OK," said Gu after defeat to his teammate in the final.
