Mario Sanzullo & Bettina Fabian Crowned Overall Winners At LEN Open Water Cup
Mario Sanzullo and Bettina Fabian were crowned overall women and men’s champions in the LEN Open Water Cup following the sixth and final leg in Barcelona.
Marc-Antoine Olivier returned to the water following his ban from the French federation and picked up where he left off in Eilat, Israel, in March.
The 2016 Olympic 10k bronze medallist was in a great tussle with Sanzullo and his Italian teammate Marcello Guidi.
While Olivier enjoyed a clear win by 1.7secs in 1:52:52.8, Sanzullo held off his compatriot in 1:52:54.6 to 1:52:54.9.
Men’s overall rankings at Len Open Water Cup
Mario Sanzullo 3600 points, 3. Marcello Guidi 3100, 3. Marc-Antoine Olivier 1600
The women’s event was similarly exciting with Fabian separated from leader Arianna Bridi by just 50pts coming in to Barcelona.
