Joseph Bonassisa has become the Irish International Open Karate Champion for the fourth successive year.
The 13-year-old, from Yarnton, beat rivals from Ukraine, Ireland and Belgium to retain his crown.
Bonassisa also picked up silver in the 15 to 17-year-old team event with Matthew Lester and Ben Turner.
The Oxford Sports & Traditional Martial Artist member came second in the British International Karate Championships earlier this year and will now focus on the Italian Grand Prix in Monza later this month.
