Another victory for Nicolas Goyard in IQ Foil. The Caledonian won gold at the end of the Olympic week in Hyères, in the south of France. “I won 11 out of 16 races. It’s a great victory and a good warm-up for the upcoming European championship. I am confident for the future“, Cagou told the French Sailing Federation.

A nice performance two years before the Paris Olympics. “The speed is there, I had a good race. It lacked serious competitors, but there was still a very good level. Clément, who is just behind, also confirms his very good level. The France team is dense. It was the first time I raced here, it was a discovery but it’s nice to be at home“, continues the Caledonian.

His brother Thomas Goyard, Olympic vice-champion in Tokyo on the old windsurfing model, finished 9e en IQ Foil.
