    The Black Foils are "king of the hill", "top of the heap" and "A-number one" after winning the latest Sail GP event under the gaze of the Statue of Liberty.

    They have beaten Canada and Britain in the regatta decider.

    Skipper Peter Burling describes their ascendancy against the odds.



    New Zealand lead the series on 93 points, 15 clear of Australia, guaranteeing them a spot in the final next month at San Francisco.
