Ranked number 11 in the world, Garozzo was the surprise winner of the gold medal in the Men's Individual Foil at the 2016 Summer Olympics, beating the American world number 1 Alexander Massialas in the final; his victory raised his world ranking to number 2.[5][6] In the same event at the next Olympics in 2021, he was defeated by Cheung Ka Long from Hong Kong with a score of 15-11, claiming his first Olympic silver medal.[7]

In June 2022, Garozzo won the gold medal in the men's foil event at the 2022 European Fencing Championships held in Antalya, Turkey.[8][9]
