Young Americans Win

SAN DIEGO () -- Pact 95's Young America defeated the all-women America3 by 3 minutes, 32 seconds on the defender course in the America's Cup trials.


In light wind, Young America, skippered by Kevin Mahaney, earned its second victory in as many races Tuesday over the women and now leads the America's Cup defender scoreboard.


At one point, the women were almost 13 minutes behind Young America, but closed the gap over the final six miles of the 30-kilometer course. On Tuesday, Team New Zealand easily defeated Tag Heuer Challenge.

A Message from The Moscow Times:

Dear readers,

We are facing unprecedented challenges. Russia's Prosecutor General's Office has designated The Moscow Times as an "undesirable" organization, criminalizing our work and putting our staff at risk of prosecution. This follows our earlier unjust labeling as a "foreign agent."

These actions are direct attempts to silence independent journalism in Russia. The authorities claim our work "discredits the decisions of the Russian leadership." We see things differently: we strive to provide accurate, unbiased reporting on Russia.

We, the journalists of The Moscow Times, refuse to be silenced. But to continue our work, we need your help.

Your support, no matter how small, makes a world of difference. If you can, please support us monthly starting from just $2. It's quick to set up, and every contribution makes a significant impact.

By supporting The Moscow Times, you're defending open, independent journalism in the face of repression. Thank you for standing with us.
