Sailing: Marta Maggetti (ITA) wins women’s windsurfing gold!
Great Britain’s Emma Wilson – bronze medallist in windsurfing at Tokyo 2020 on the RS:X board – was leading the race early, but a gamble on one of her lines as she passed a mark opened the door for Maggetti and Sharon Kantor of Israel.
Maggetti stormed through to take the lead and held it through to the finish, winning gold ahead of Kantor in second and Wilson in third.
The Italian makes history as the first winner of the iQFoil class (making its debut at Paris 2024) in Olympic history!
