Annie, Kate and had a solid final day of the round robin yesterday winning all three of our matches and therefore qualifying us for the quarter finals against the French team helmed by Leroy.
We had three tough opponents yesterday in the French, Germans and Americans and despite a bit of pressure particularly in our final match against the Americans, we were able to continue our run of wins to finish 4th in the round robin.
Today we have a day off while the laser radials and 470s start their racing then tomorrow we are back on the water to start the best of 5 race quarter finals.
We have raced the French a lot in the past but not raced many playoffs against them recently. They are a very strong team but yesterday we felt really good when we were racing them and we are confident going into tomorrow.
The RSXs started their racing yesterday and the GBR sailors started well, Bryony getting an 8th and 3rd and Dempsey a 1st and 2nd so good luck to them today!
Now back to that day off...
