The 2023 World Fencing Championships were held from 22ââto 30 July 2023 in Milan, Italy.
After the Olga Kharlan handshaking incident at the "championships," in which she refusedââto shake the hand of a defeated Russian opponent. And was subsequently disqualified, the International Fencing Federation changed its rules so that the previously required handshakes between fencers at the end of a bout would become optional, "with a distance greeting permitted instead."
Scheduleâ»
Twelve events were held.
