The United States, through producing an occasional outstanding fencer, has not fared well in the Olympics. In fact, when Peter Westbrook won the Olympics bronze medal in the saber in 1984, it was the first individual fencing medal for the United States since 1960. In the 1992 Olympics at Barcelona, the best finishes for the U.S. fencers were a ninth in men's team sabre and a ninth in women's team foil.
