Italian Cassara replaces Baldini
Italian World Number 3 Andrea Cassara will be Andrea Baldini’s (Former world number 1) replacement for the Olympic Mens Foil Individual Competition beginning on Wednesday 13th August in Beijing.
Baldini tested positive for Furosemide (Lasix) in Kiev in the European Championships last month. Baldini lost in the 8 at the European Championships, but has since had his points removed after the test.
Cassara is the current European Champion winning the same event.
