US Edition'I can trust myself': Olympic fencing medal brings confidence for Canada's Harvey
- Eleanor Harvey, a 30-year-old three-time Olympian from Hamilton, earned a historic bronze medal in the individual women's foil event at the 2024 Paris Olympics, marking the first time Canada secured an Olympic medal in fencing.
- Harvey's ascent in fencing is the result of years of hard work, with strong backing from her mother, Lise Graydon, who made a significant sacrifice by selling her home to enable Harvey to participate in international competitions and attend Ohio State.
- Since Paris, Harvey earned medals at World Cups and Grand Prix events, including bronze in Tunisia, silver in South Korea and Italy, and gold in Egypt last month.
- Harvey said, “I learned that I can trust myself” and that despite Olympic and World Cup medals, she feels “You have so much more to prove!”
- Her success has inspired fencing’s growth in Canada, doubling registrants since 2020 to 6,000, and she aims to be the best while coaching and driving the sport’s future.
