A Brazilian sailor with a very famous name in Olympic history is in contention to earn a place for his country at the Paris 2024 Games after day three of competition at the Last Chance Regatta in Hyères, France.
Team USA windsurfer Noah Lyons has put himself on course for a place at the Paris 2024 Olympic Games this summer after day two of the Last Chance Regatta. Lyons, already selected as the American representative in the iQFOiL windsurfer should the United States qualify a country place, has his fate in his own hands at the final qualifying event of the Olympic campaign being held as part of the Semaine Olympique Française in Hyères this week.
The first day of the final qualifying event for the Paris 2024 Olympics saw Switzerland’s Elena Lengwiler claim three first places at the Last Chance Regatta to live up to her billing as an also-ran turned medal contender in the Formula Kite event.
