Published Date:

Christina Bassadone and Saskia Clark missed out on the medals today - but still finished a creditable sixth in the women's 470 sailing.
The pair finished fourth in the medal race, which moved them up to sixth place in the final table.
Australia won the gold.
While Bassadone, from Itchenor, and Clark, a former University of Chichester student, will be upset not to be coming home with a medal, they can take great pride in finishing sixth.
For Bassadone, it is one place better than she managed in the same class in Athens four years ago, when she was paired with Catherine Hopson.
