Filipino fencer Sam Catantan faces a challenging journey to Olympic glory in Paris, with her path marred by obstacles and uncertainties.
Due to an ACL injury that sidelined her for eight months, Catantan’s low-ranking points may pit her against top-ranked fencers as early as the round of 32 in women’s foil.
Despite ongoing knee brace support, Catantan remains determined to give her best performance, as expressed during the PSA Forum.
National team coach Roland Amat acknowledges the tough road ahead for Catantan, likening her journey to that of weightlifter Hidilyn Diaz.
