Lola's career has not been without its challenges. She underwent elbow surgery in August 2018 and tore her right hamstring in 2009. Despite these setbacks, she has continued to excel in her sport.

"Training in France has changed me a lot. I feel better both technically and physically, and I have more confidence in myself," she said. "Since I started fencing in Udine [Italy] I have always practised the French style."
Looking ahead, Lola aims to compete at the 2024 Olympic Games in Paris. Her dedication and rigorous training regimen suggest she is well on her way to achieving this goal.
