Elodie Clouvel has one target in her sights in this very special year: qualifying for this summer. The only way for her to do this is to score points in each heat of the World Cup.
In mid-April, during the second heat of the World Cup in Ankara (Turkey) Elodie was hit by bad luck and ended up not qualifying for the finals – as a result of her pistol misfiring. A week later, armed with a new pistol, Elodie headed for the third heat of the World Cup in Budapest (Hungary) and finished seventh! A similar scenario, but tainted with more disappointment for the fourth heat of the World Cup in Sofia (Bulgaria). Elodie started off with fencing: she finished in first place, winning 26 of her 27 fights. Equestrian showjumping was next and she finished without a single fault. Then swimming, in which Elodie once again dominated. The Team ENGIE athlete was off to an excellent start before the fourth event: combined running and shooting, in which she finished in seventh place in this World Cup heat.
The next stage will be the World Cup finals in Ankara.
