.Under trying
weather conditions, but with much fanfare, Sally Barkow was crowned the
winner of the 2005 U.S. Women’s Match Racing Championship. This is
Sally's second Match Racing title in as many months.
Two round
robins had been completed on Thursday and with racing abandoned on Friday,
abbreviated semi-finals (first to 2 points) and only one consolation round
robin were sailed this morning under cloudy skies with a south wind at 3-5
knots. In semi-final 1, Katy Lovell won the first two matches against
Betsy Alison and Sally Barkow beat Liz Baylis in three matches to move into
the final round.
The wind began
to shift way right, then way left before what little velocity they had
completely shut off and the race committee was forced to sit and wait for
the weather patterns to settle in. A shift to the north was predicted for
the day, but unfortunately, there was too little time remaining for a
complete final/petit round and only one match in each was sailed before the
RC made the decision to abandon.
