USVI
Katy Pilley-Lovell (USA) and her team executed a perfect final jibe and stayed powered up in their own breeze to pass Liz Baylis (USA) and cross the finish line with yet another win. Pilley-Lovell's team punched their ticket into the semi-finals and made it mathematically impossible for their Baylis to carry on.
The number one Women's Match Racing team, Claire Leroy (FRA); US Champion, Genny Tulloch; and number 6 ranked, Julie Bossard (FRA) had already secured their opportunities to move on to the Semi-Finals.
In the Franco-American Semi-Finals Leroy selected Pilley-Lovell and Tulloch waged battle with Bossard. The women sailed two semi-final flights in strong winds on Saturday afternoon. Tulloch was infallible during the pre-starts and had control of each of her races against Bossard well before the starting gun sounded.
The Leroy and Pilley-Lovell pre-starts were not as one-sided, but the results were the same. Both Leroy and Tulloch came off the water this afternoon with two wins leaving their opponents facing sudden death in tomorrow's first race.
Petite-Final and Finals will be sailed Sunday. The wards presentation will be in the vicinity of presenting sponsor, Trident Jewels & Time at Yacht Haven Grande.
