America's cup report

Today I am going to talk about the America's cup which  is super close between Emirates and Oracle.
Firstly, The boat with 9 points/races wins the America's cup. They have to sail for legs, legs means each section of the race and who crosses the finish line first wins 1 point. The races are held in San Fancisco  on the western side of America. The skipper for the Oracle team is Jimmy Spithill and the skipper for the Emirates team is Dean Barker. There is a Cup called the Louis Vuitton cup which means who ever gets it is called the "challengers".
The America's cup is called the "defenders". New Zealand have the Louis Vuitton Cup and the American have the America's Cup. New Zealand is so close to winning. In San Fancisco there is the golden gate bridge and an island called Alcatraz.  Alcatraz  was an island that used to be a prison but now everybody calls it the island that used to be a prison. Pretty long name for an island. There are in total of 17 races. So basically the America's Cup is a  boating race  that is held every four years and this year it is held in San Fancisco.
