Aucun des sept fleurettistes français engagés ce samedi dans le tableau principal de la Coupe du monde de Paris n'a réussi à se frayer un chemin jusqu'au podium de Coubertin. Maxime Pauty (14e mondial) a cédé au deuxième tour, quand Wallerand Roger (102e) et Adrien Helmy-Cocoynacq (160e) ont été les seuls à atteindre les huitièmes de finale, où ils se sont inclinés.
