Women's epee last 32

At the top of the table Alberta Santuccio (ITA) marches on after defeating Lind (NOR) 15-8 and will now face compatriot Camilla Batini in the last 16. Marniuk and Tonic also progressed 15-12 and 15-13 respectively and will now meet in what could be a very tasty last 16 fight. It was mixed fortunes for the two remaining Estonians with Beljajeva losing 15-14 to third seed Angi Xu from China but Erika Kirpu is through and will now meet Xu in the next round.

Second seed Dorina Budai progressed 15-7 at the expense of Britain's Amy Radford and it was a similar story for Caitlin Chang who lost 15-8 to Yujie Sun (CHN).
