SAILING: Australia's most celebrated sailing duo, Mat Belcher and Will Ryan, have confirmed their place in the history books after clinching gold in a poignant, emotion-fuelled race in the men's 470 at Enoshima.
The five-time World Champions entered Wednesday's medal race with an almost unbeatable 20-point lead, and only needed to avoid any false start penalties to be crowned Olympic Champions. But after taking no risks at the start line, the champions worked through the field and won the medal race in commanding fashion.
