Chicago Match Cup 2013 - Highlights Show

The cityscape of Lake Michigan plays host to the third edition of the Chicago Match Cup, Stage 4 of the Alpari World Match Racing Tour, ISAF's Match Racing World Championship.
Excitement has been building into the season so far as Tour Card Holder Bjorn Hansen and his eWork Sailing Team took a hat-trick victory at Stage 3 - Stena Match Cup Sweden. The swedes now trail Ian Williams (GBR) GAC Pindar by 3 places on the Tour leader board.
Will Bjorn Hansen and his eWork Sailing Team continue their winning form and exert their dominance over the leader board? Can local hero Taylor Canfield (ISV) USone win his home town event to secure him a place in the top three?
The event also sees Wild Card entry and former America's Cup helmsman Gavin Brady making a return to top flight match racing with the rest of Tour Card Holders. Will his team become the game changer of the series?
Watch all the action from Lake Michigan home of the Chicago Match Cup!
