Ealing teenager Dimitri Coutya won a bronze medal for Great Britain at the Hungarian Wheelchair Fencing World Cup.
The St Benedict's School lower sixth student took third place in the foil to earn his place on the podium in Eger.
And having finished 13th in the epee, Coutya remains in the top 10 for both disciplines and on course to qualify for the 2016 Paralympics in Rio.
Coutya's bronze was his first individual medal abroad and he said: “I may not have won either competition, but I have gained invaluable points contributing to my world rankings and the respect of many of the world’s top fencers.”
The 17-year-old made a flying start in the foil, winning all four pool matches, including impressive victories over world number two and London 2012 bronze medallist, Alim Latreche of France and world number 10, Zbigniew Wyganowski from Poland.
After trailing 5-1 in his next fight against Jacek Gaworski of Poland, he went on to win 15-6 and in the quarter-finals he defeated Latreche again, triumphing 15-7.
Coutya fought Wyganowski again in the semi-final but lost a close match 15-13 to land bronze.
In the epee, Coutya qualified from the pool stage but lost in the first elimination round to world number one, Alexander Kuzyukov of Russia, 15-13.
Fellow GB fencer Gemma Collis won a bronze medal in Hungary in the women’s epee.
