Live stream information and how to watch Olympics sailing online and on television on Thursday, August 18.

Wednesday’s medal events were pushed to Thursday, so on the final day of Olympics sailing in Rio there will be medal races in the women’s and men’s 470 dinghies, the men’s 49er skiffs and the women’s 49er FX skiffs.

Olympics sailing events come to a close in Rio on Thursday. So far, medals have been awarded in men’s and women’s RS: X windsurfers on Sunday, and on Tuesday the women’s laser radial dinghies, men’s laser dinghies, mixed nacra 17, and men’s finn medal races took place.

During Tuesday’s races, Great Britain’s Alison Young took home the gold in the women’s laser radial dinghies, Brazil’s Robert Scheidt won gold in the men’s laser dinghies, Team USA’s Caleb Paine won bronze in the men’s finn dinghies, and New Zealand won gold in the mixed nacra 17 multihulls.

The men’s laser and women’s laser radial dinghy medal races were scheduled for Monday but were added to Tuesday’s schedule, while the preliminaries continued in men’s and women’s 49er and 470 skiffs. Monday’s preliminaries were dominated by France, which won half of the events.

On Sunday, Team Netherlands won both the men’s and women’s medals in the RS: X windsurfers. On the men’s side, Dorian van Rijsselberghe came in first place for the Netherlands, followed by Ivan Pastor of Spain and Chun Leung Michael Cheng of Hong Kong, China. Van Rijsselberghe has been dominating the men’s RS: X preliminaries and it’s no surprise that he’s the gold medalist.

The medal race for the women’s RS: X windsurfers was a tight race between a group of women who all had strong showings in the preliminaries. Lilian de Geus of the Netherlands came in first, taking the gold medal, followed by Charline Picon of France with silver, and Chen Peina of China with bronze. Brazilian Patricia Freitas came in fourth place.
