Britain's Ainslie wins Finn sailing gold August 17, 2008 4:43 AM QINGDAO, China Britain's Ben Ainslie has won his third straight Olympic sailing gold with a commanding win in the final medal race for Finn class sailors.
Ainslie, 31, was guaranteed at least silver on overall points heading into the medal race, and only the 24-year-old Railey could have threatened his gold. Ainslie has previous golds from 2004 and 2000, as well as a silver from 1996, and came on strong in the medal final, which counts double. The British sailor led all the way, while Railey was sixth in the 10-boat fleet, securing enough points to clutch his silver. Florent finished fourth in the final to take the bronze. |
