    Lukas Walton-Keim and Justina Kitchen's Olympic kite foiling campaigns are over

    Lukas Walton-Keim and Justina Kitchen's Olympic kite foiling campaigns are over


    A lack of wind at Marseille prevented any racing today, meaning the pair missed any last chance to earn a top-10 spot and advance to tomorrow's semi-finals.

    The conditions meant fewer than half of the scheduled 16 opening series races were held.

    Mixed multihull sailors Micah Wilkinson and Erica Dawson were moments away from a start in their medal decider before a lack of breeze forced a 24-hour postponement.

    Winds did allow the completion of the men's dinghy event - Tom Saunders finished seventh overall.
