Krystal Weir hoping for 2012 London Olympics entry: 2012 Delta Lloyd Regatta
Australia’s Krystal Weir was able to hit the top spot of the 2012 Delta Lloyd Regatta with 22 points after claiming the Medal race.
She had a convincing event from the start and claimed three bullet positions during her regatta campaign. Her run of 22 points include 10 races including a discard race and a medal race.
Besides the Laser Radial title of the 2012 Delta Lloyd Regatta, Weir was also aiming for an entry in the 2012 London Olympic Games as she was hoping that the Australian Sailing Federation will consider her for the mega event especially after she performs
better in the Delta Lloyd Regatta 2012.
Speaking to the local media about her aim, Weir said that she had a good week here. The pressure was a bit off in the last race, so that make things easier. She is hoping that her win in the 2012 Delta Lloyd Regatta will be good enough to bring her the Olympic
ticket.
She is still waiting for the answer form the Australian federation and is hopeful for a positive response from them because participating in the 2012 London Olympic Games has been her foremost priority.
