Araceli Navarro Laso (born August 9, 1989) is a Spanish sabre fencer.[1] She won one of the bronze medals in the women's sabre event at the 2022 World Fencing Championships held in Cairo, Egypt.[2] Navarro represented Spain at the 2008 Summer Olympics in Beijing, where she competed in the women's individual sabre event.
At the Olympics, she defeated Mexico's Angélica Larios in the preliminary round of sixty-four, before she was forced to retire in her next match against United States' Rebecca Ward, because of a dislocated left shoulder injury, with a score of 7–12.[3][4]
