GBR Match Race Girls

Finals here we come!

Friday 29th January, 2010

And the winning continued today… still undefeated we had some great racing, finishing our quarter finals 3–0 against Lotte Meldgaard (DEN) and then beating World #1 Claire Leroy (FRA) 3–0 in the semi finals!

We’re really pleased with how we’re sailing, and with how we are still chipping away at improving our tactics, speed and boat handling. The forecast is for us to have a bit more wind tomorrow from our 10 knot average today and after a very close semi final that went to 5 matches, Tunnicliffe’s team (USA) came out as our opponents for tomorrow.

Our aim for this event was a medal which we’re delighted to have achieved, but with that now secured, tomorrow is all about winning! Fingers crossed!
