Kerenza Bryson of Great Britain and Changwan Seo of South Korea on Saturday claimed gold medals in the UIPM 2024 Pentathlon World Cup Ankara in the Turkish capital.

In the Women’s Final, Bryson, 25, won her second world cup gold ahead of 20-year-old Seungmin Seong of South Korea and 19-year-old Malak Ismail of Egypt.

"I am on a run at the moment and I feel like it’s just positive vibes all round. I’m really happy with how my prep is going this season," said Bryson.

In the men's final, Changwan Seo won the gold medal in front of two Egyptian athletes, Moutaz Mohamed and Malak Ismail.

Seo said: "Here in Ankara I always get good scores, and thankfully it happened again in this competition. I always felt that my fencing skills were a little bit under strength, but this time I got a good score in fencing and that’s why I was the best in the competition."

The UIPM 2024 Pentathlon World Cup started in the Turkish capital Ankara on Tuesday and is due to end on Sunday.
