Filipino fencer Samantha Catantan did all she could but ultimately yielded to world no. 2 and tournament’s top seed Arianna Errigo of Italy, 15-12, in the Paris Olympics women’s individual foil round of 32 at the Grand Palais on Sunday afternoon, July 28 (Manila time).

Catantan, world no. 266 and seeded 33rd in the tiff, battled through her nagging injury and took on the four-time Olympian and 5-foot-11 Errigo, who claimed bronze in Tokyo three years ago.
