The final three world cup stops on the fencing circuit are this weekend in Europe. The women’s foil event takes place in Tauberbischofsheim, Germany, the women’s epee event is in Legnano, Italy, and the men’s epee event is in Paris, France.

Most of the US athletes, including all 12 in Paris, will need to go through the preliminary round to qualify for the table of 64 however three of the eight in Tauberbischofsheim, Lee Kiefer, Nzingha Prescod, and Nicole Ross, and one of the 10 in Legnano, Courtney Hurley, will be exempt from preliminaries and awarded spots directly in the table of 64.

In all three cities the preliminaries are on Friday, the table of 64 is on Saturday, and the team events are Sunday.
