World Sailing Rankings – November 2019

The World Sailing Rankings seek to establish an order of ability based on the results of certain events over a 24 month period. The rankings focus on the 10 Olympic events and Open and Women’s Match Racing.

In match racing, Eric Monnin (SUI) moves up from third to take over the top position with Nick Egnot-Johnson (NZL) remaining in second while previous leader Ian Williams (GBR) falls to third. Among the women, the top three positions remain unchanged with Pauline Courtois (FRA) at the front of the field, Anna Oestling (SWE) in second, and Johanna Bergqvist (SWE) in third. Top North Americans are Nicole Breault (USA) and Chris Poole (USA) in 4th and 8th, respectively.

The fleet racing rankings (last updated in October) in which the North Americans are in the top 20 include Canadians Tom Ramshaw (7th, Finn) and Sarah Douglas (13th, Laser Radial) and from the USA are: Stu McNay/ Dave Hughes (8th, 470 Men), Paige Railey (7th, USA), Erika Reineke (16th, Laser Radial), Stephanie Roble/ Maggie Shea (10th, 49erFX Women), Charlie Buckingham (11th, Laser), Chris Barnard (18th, Laser), Luke Muller (20th, Finn), and Riley Gibbs/ Anna Weis (15th, Nacra 17).
