Mohamed Rayan Samandi is a Tunisian foil fencer,[1] African champion in 2014. At the 2012 Summer Olympics, he competed in the individual event but was defeated in the second round.

Career[edit]

Samandi took up fencing at the age of ten. In 2005 he was the first African to win a stage of the Junior World Cup in Viana do Castelo in Portugal. He claimed the gold medal at the 2007 All-Africa Games. [2]

Samandi qualified for the 2008 Summer Olympics in Beijing through his results at the African qualifying fencing tournament held in Casablanca,[3] but could not attend the competition due to lack of funds. He qualified to the 2012 Summer Olympics as the best-ranked African fencer. In the first round, he defeated 15–8 Great Britain's Husayn Rosowsky, but he fell 7–15 in the next round to World No.1 Andrea Cassarà.[4]

He qualified to represent Tunisia at the 2020 Summer Olympics.[5]
