PHNOM PENH – Singapore’s fencers ended their 2023 SEA Games campaign on a high, winning a final gold in the women’s epee on Tuesday.
The quartet of Elle Koh, Kiria Tikanah, Filzah Hidayah and Rebecca Ong beat the Philippines 45-37 in the final at the Chroy Changvar International Convention and Exhibition Centre.
In the men’s foil, the foursome of Samuel Robson, Max Neo, Lionel Wee and Zephaniah Kiew lost 45-37 to Vietnam in the final.
