Sun Yiwen
(Fencing)
Sun has always had to deal with injuries throughout her career, yet still has enjoyed significant success on the world stage. After winning a historic gold in the women's epee individual at the Tokyo Olympics, she took a break from international competition until returning last November. Since then, Sun has claimed bronze at the World Cup and the Milan world championships, lifting her world ranking from 95th to her current ninth place. The 31-year-old is determined to win her maiden Asiad individual gold and third consecutive team title in Hangzhou.
