Sailing - Coutts hopes Olympics follows his lead to improve racing


TOKYO (Reuters) - Five-time America's Cup winner Russell Coutts believes the format used in the New Zealander's SailGP league could be adopted by the Olympics as the sport looks to modernise.

Sailing has been a staple at every Summer Games bar 1904 but the International Olympic Committee (IOC) are looking at ways to reach a younger demographic, with Coutts endorsing the use of modern technology to widen the sport's audience.
