The 2016 RS:X World Championships in Eilat end on Saturday but the Pole, who will take part in the Olympic Games in Rio de Janeiro in August, cannot be deprived of first place.

Myszka placed third, first and second in the three runs on Friday and has a total of 27 points while Nick Dempsey of Britain (second in the overall standings) - 49.8.

The difference is so big that even if the Pole does not complete the race on Saturday, he will not be deprived of first place, PAP was told by Tomasz Chamera of the Polish Yachting Association. (PAP)
