Pavlo Kirpulyanskyy (UKR) and Peter Tibolya (HUN) were the top scorers in fencing (collected 1072 points), followed by Martin Dvorak (CZE, 1000 points) and Mordasov (RUS) and Gebhardt (GER) with 892 points.

The fastest swimmer in all heats of semifinal A was youngster Irish Lanigan O'Keeffe, 2:06 (worth 1288 points), but still he failed to qualify for the finals, just like veteran American Eli Bremer, who clocked the 4th best time. Motsios (GRE) and Marosi (HUN) were the second and third fastest swimmers, and almost missed the qualification by finishing in 16th and 18th overall in the group. Marosi probably will perform better when it counts, in tomorrow's final. The pentathletes that promise a good display in the final's combined event are Thomas Daniel (AUT), Hernandez (MEX), Weale (GBR) and Köllner (GER), that improved their positions in the semifinals with a great run and shooting.
