LONDON, July 26 (UPI) -- Two-time fencing gold medalist Mariel Zagunis has been selected to be the U.S. flag bearer for Friday's Olympics opening ceremonies in London.
Zagunis said the voting by the U.S. team took more than two rounds and was between her and an unidentified athlete. She is the third fencer since 1908 to carry the U.S. flag.
