Olympic medal in touching distance for Annalise Murphy

Annalise Murphy remains on target for a medal that she so surely deserves, and she will go into the medal race of the Laser Radial on Monday in third position after finishes of sixth and seventh at Pao de Acucar in the Marina Da Gloria today, writes Daragh Ó Conchúir.

The medal race provided Murphy the biggest disappointment of her career when she finished fourth in London four years ago, but she is a different individual now and knows how to deal with the situation.
