EM-Silber in Sheffield
Britta Heidemann wins silver at the European Championships in Sheffield! In the individual competition, after a good prelimary round, she started a run of victories in the direct eliminiation of 64 fencers.
She then beat in a world class fight in the semi-final the Rumanian Ana Branza, her 2008 Olympic Games finals opponent, with a score of 15:10. Facing Suisse Tiffany Geroudet in the final, Heidemann was only one touch short: in the "sudden death" she was defeated by 8:9 touches. It did not take long for her to then celebrate silver, beeing her 6th individual medal at international championships.
