The women's foil was one of eight fencing events on the fencing at the 1968 Summer Olympics programme. It was the tenth appearance of the event. The competition was held from 19 to 20 October 1968. 38 fencers from 16 nations competed. [1]

Competition format

The 1968 tournament continued to use a mix of pool play and knockout rounds, but with substantial changes from 1964. The first two rounds were round-robin pool play, followed by a knockout round, finishing with another pool for the final. Barrages were eliminated and the knockout round was a modified double elimination round. [1] [2]
