Burrows to draw on Gold Cup experience

With just three more days of action left in the Finn Class, Ireland's David Burrows is in line to better his ninth place finish of four years ago and achieve Ireland’s best Olympic sailing result since 1980.

To do that, he still needs an improvement in his final five races and the 27-year-old Dublin accountant will surely draw on the experience of making a late run to bronze at January’s Gold Cup, the Finn World Championships in Rio de Janeiro.
