Egyptian fencer Nada Hafez faced a 15-7 defeat against Korean Hayoung Jeon in the Sabre Individual Women's Round of 16, bowing out of the competition.
Ranked 26th in the world, Hafez engaged in a hard-fought battle against Jeon, the 10th-ranked fencer globally, but unfortunately, she was eliminated in the round of 16.
