Alexandru Nyisztor
Alexandru Nyisztor (born 27 June 1979) is a Romanian épée fencer, who competed in the 2004 Summer Olympics. He is eight-time national épée champion of Romania. Career Nyisztor took up fencing when he was nine years old, on medical advice: he was a sickly child and his doctor recommended his mother to take him to sport. His mother chose fencing because the hall was close to home. He grew bored quickly and started to play truant until his mother met his coach, Marcela Moldovan, who revealed he had not trained for a while. Nyisztor was summoned to give in his equipment. When he arrived to the hall, he thought he would train one last time and eventually decided to go on. He practiced foil first, then turned to épée as well. He transferred to CS Crișul Oradea in 1993 to follow his coach, while continuing his studies at his home city, Satu Mare. He began to train in épée under the coaching of Nicolae Ille. In 1994, he was asked to join both the national foil team in Satu ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
