Oracle Team USA again held off elimination in the America’s Cup by defeating Emirates Team New Zealand today on San Francisco Bay.
The victory still left the defending champions behind 8-3 in the best-of-17 series, which continues tomorrow. An earlier race today was abandoned with New Zealand ahead by more than two minutes because a lack of wind prevented the Kiwis from finishing the course within the required 40 minutes.
