Still in Legal Limbo
The date and venue of the next America’s Cup remained in limbo yesterday after Judge Herman Cahn of the New York Supreme Court said he would take further time to consider his ruling. He was responding to a renewed claim by Ernesto Bertarelli’s Swiss defender Alinghi that it would not be ready to race this year.
The judge appeared to have ruled out a July defence against Larry Ellison’s San Francisco-based BMW Oracle, which is now the sole challenger. But he could order a match in October, 10 months after the court cases at the end of November last year. Or he could start the 10-month notice clock on the date of either his judgment, expected in about 10 to 14 days or his last judgment last month.

ISAF Women’s Match Racing World Championship
Auckland, New Zealand: Finland’s Silja Lehtinen lies in first place after eight matches on the first day of racing at the BSPORT ISAF Women’s Match Racing Worlds in Auckland.
Silja Lehtinen (FIN), aged just 22 and the youngest of the 14 competing skippers, won five of her six opening matches to top the round robin leaderboard. She is closely followed on the scoreboard by Australia’s Nicky Souter and Liz Baylis from the USA, who each have four wins after five races. With just a very narrow range of scores separating the top six skippers, the quarter-finals spots will be very closely fought tomorrow.
