Dennis Conner’s Stars & Stripes came from more than a minute behind America3 on the final run to find a better breeze and score a surprise victory over the all-women team in America’s Cup.

America3 had seemed well in control at the turn for the finish line. But Stars & Stripes gambled on a freshening wind to the left of the course that lifted the boat past the women to its first victory of the third round of the defender trials.
