ENOSHIMA, Japan (Reuters) - Britain's Hannah Mills brought the Tokyo regatta to a glittering finish by winning a second Olympic gold with new partner Eilidh McIntyre to become the most successful female Olympic sailor of all time, despite a recent dip in motivation.

Mills has won two gold medals and one silver over the last three Olympics, and though she faces an uncertain future with the 470 class switching to mixed, she is delighted that she found her fire again.
