    Men's 470 coach Geoff Woolley wants to see his sailors take more chances at the Tokyo Olympics

    Men's 470 coach Geoff Woolley wants to see his sailors take more chances at the Tokyo Olympics


    Paul Snow-Hansen and Dan Willcox sit third in the overall standings after six of their 10 regular races - the top 10 progress to the medal race.

    They have secured one second - their other five finishes have been outside the top four but inside the top seven as they prepare for a rest day.



    Laser sailor Sam Meech has sneaked into Sunday's Olympic medal race with a third in his final regular outing.

    The 49erFX crew of Alex Maloney and Molly Meech are 11th overall with three standard races left.

    Peter Burling and Blair Tuke are locked in a three-way tie at the top of the 49er class.
