The U.S. SailGP Team clinches victory at the KPMG Sydney Sail Grand Prix, finishing ahead of Emirates GBR in second and Los Gallos in third. This win marks the team's first since Cádiz in Season 4 and Kyle Canfield's first-ever in SailGP, calling it "an incredible feeling." The Americans dominate the tricky Championship Sunday with strong finishes of 3, 1, and 6 in the final qualifying races. Canfield emphasizes the team's strategy: "We had to keep the pedal down, stay in clean air." Emirates GBR controls the early stages of the final race but Canfield's crew seizes the lead mid-race and maintains it to the finish. Emirates GBR holds second, while Los Gallos takes third. The U.S. now ranks third overall with 20 points, trailing Emirates GBR (28 points) and Australia (25 points). Northstar SailGP Team struggles, finishing last, with driver Giles Scott eager to move on from Sydney.
