    The Black Foils are hedging their bets on a showdown with three-time champions Australia in tomorrow morning's winner-take-all Sail GP finale in San Francisco

    The Black Foils are hedging their bets on a showdown with three-time champions Australia in tomorrow morning's winner-take-all Sail GP finale in San Francisco


    New Zealand have already booked their place in the three-boat decider, with the final two places to be decided over this weekend's five fleet races.

    Australia and Spain sit second and third respectively and Black Foils driver Peter Burling expects it'll remain that way.



    The first fleet races starts at 9.30am.
