Consistency is the name of the game when it comes to the World Match Racing Tour. Adam Minoprio and BlackMatch Racing have achieved that best over the first three events of the 2009 World Match Racing Tour, and are at the head of the leaderboard. One point behind, after top three finishes, including a win, in just two events, is TEAMORIGIN's Ben Ainslie.
Last year's winner, Ian Williams, is fourth, behind last year's third-placed Mathieu Richard. Damien Iehl, after a 2nd and 4th from competing in just two events, is fifth. Paolo Cian and Peter Gilmour, also competitors at only two of the events so far in 2009, are 6th and 7th, with Torvar Mirsky in 8th place.
However, there's still a long way to go. The best five results on the 2009 Tour count for the final overall result, together with the last event, the Monsoon Cup, in Malaysia.
