Compiled From Wire Services

America3’s all-women crew beat Dennis Conner’s Stars & Stripes in the opening race of the third-round robin of the America’s Cup trials to end a three-race losing streak.

The women led the entire way around the six-leg, 18.6-mile Pacific Ocean course and won by 1 minute, 26 seconds. It was their first victory since defeating Young America in the opening race of the second round-robin on Jan. 29.
