| For any of you who are interested in windsurfing at the Olympics, I have found the following links: 1) http://www.nbcolympics.com/sailing/resultsandschedules/rsc=SAM102901/index.html for the men’s RS:X results and 2) http://www.nbcolympics.com/sailing/resultsandschedules/rsc=SAW102901/index.html for the women’s RS:X results. Alternatively, go to http://results.beijing2008.cn/WRM/ENG/Schedule/SA.shtml and then click on the results for RS:X men’s and RS:X women’s. There are probably many other websites that also have schedules, results and photos, which can be found by googling “Olympics”, then looking for the schedules and results for the genre of sailing and then the sub-genre of boardsailing or RS:X. I noticed that each of the men’s and the women’s RS:X has 10 races and a Final, 2 of the 10 races have already been completed. Jim, how do they calculate the winner, 2nd place etc from the above 10 races and the Final? For the men’s RS:X, Benjamin Barger representing the US was 21 out of 34 in the first race and 22 out of 35 for the second race. For the women’s RS:X, Nancy Rios is representing the US, and she placed 25 out of 27 for the first race and 24 out of 25 for the second race. Jim, being such an affluent and powerful nation that the US is, why can’t the windsurfers representing the US at the Olympics make a commensurate showing? Why do we place near the bottom in windsurfing? Windsurf Resource |
