Wednesday offered the race committee and the sailors steady winds that lasted for the whole day, which made it possible to catch up in the programme after a Tuesday afternoon with no wind on the Swedish West Coast waters. Stephanie Roble was among the sailors sailing the most matches, but that obviously didn’t concern her at all. World #1 and reigning Lysekil Champion, Camilla Ulrikkeholm Klinkby of Denmark, was one of the opponents that had to give up against the US force.
World #2 Anna östling of the Royal Gothenburg Yacht Club won both her Wednesday races, now holding fourth place in the round-robin on four wins and just a single loss. After their Tuesday loss against fellow club member Caroline Sylvan, the östling team analysed their performance and decided to have another attitude Wednesday.
Lysekil Women’s Match continues Thursday with the round-robin, before Friday’s quarter finals and Saturday’s semi finals and final.
