X-Yachts Aurum Cup 2024

X Yachts Aurum Cup 2024

The biennial X-Yachts Gold Cup has been a fixture on X-Yacht owners’ calendars for years, combining great racing and superb social activity, so extending the concept from Denmark to Australia was a natural progression.

Owners in Australia have gathered at the Middle Harbour Yacht Club in Sydney for the Aurum Cup, the brainchild of X-Yachts importer Kevin Wallis. Aurum is the Latin word for gold if you were wondering where the name came from!

The first day saw a 20 nautical mile passage race from Pittwater to Sydney on a stunning winter’s morning, with unbroken sunshine and a sometimes-fickle breeze. Concentrations was required, in an ‘eyes out of the boat’ race to make best use of the wind.

Steve Burcher, one of three sailors who own Trilogy, a new X43, described his day:

“We struggled a bit as our wind vane was damaged, so we didn’t know the true windspeed and direction, but we managed, and it was a lovely day out there. The wind was all over the shop, but it was good fun. Today was one of the first times we’ve used the Code Zero downwind, and we got a lot of performance out of it which was good.”

Steve and his fellow owners had been looking to retire, but somehow seem to be busier than ever, and have found the X43 ideal for their situation and time in life:

“We love the boat! We were looking for the ultimate racer-cruiser, and she ticked all the boxes for us. We’re still learning, and we’d all been racers before, so this is us getting back into sailing a boat that we thought would allow us to do that. We’re not spring chickens, and she’s a very comfortable boat, so we’re very happy with it. We have a couple of little luxuries, such as bow thrusters and electric winches, which are all very handy. It fits us perfectly.”

Sal Ridulfo is the owner of an IMX-40 called Xcalibur that he races successfully at the Royal Prince Alfred Yacht Club and had a superb day on the water:

“We started with an asymmetric spinnaker inside Pittwater, then gybed behind Blacksmith, an Xp50, and XS Moment, an Xp44, trying to make the most of the variable breeze.”

Sal is pleased with how his yacht is performing:

“We’re doing well, considering it’s a 24-year-old boat, but it’s solid as a rock. The steel grillage inside doesn’t go anywhere, and we have a carbon mast and boom, so it’s a beautiful boat with a superb performance. It’s a testament to the guys in Denmark that they can build a boat that can last that long.”

On the X-Yachts Aurum Cup Sal added:

“It’s a great initiative for a brand with such a high kudos in terms of ownership and quality.” Saturday sees two more races on Sydney Harbour, followed by Dinner and the Prize Giving Party at the Middle Harbour Yacht Club.

Naomi campbell wows in gold bikini during ibiza getaway with gal pals, naomi campbell sizzles in gold for ibiza getaway.

Naomi Campbell was rocking that supermodel bod on a girly getaway with Eiza González and Michelle Rodriguez ... living it up on a yacht in Ibiza.

Check out these pics -- Naomi was killing it in a teeny metallic gold bikini, with matching gold bling and shades while soaking up the sun like a pro on Monday.

NC was clearly living her best life, working those angles in her two-piece like a pro -- just as effortlessly as when she first hit the modeling scene at 15.

It wasn't just Naomi making waves -- Eiza and Michelle also sent temperatures soaring ... rocking tiny bikinis and diving into some serious snorkeling action before drying themselves off back on board.

As for Naomi, it's unclear if her two young kids joined her on the yacht, but judging by the pics, it looks like she got some well-deserved mommy time off.

The British legend welcomed her second baby at 53 last year, just two years after her first -- proving that age is just a number!

Article body

Olympiastadion Berlin, Germany, hosted the UEFA EURO 2024 final between Spain and England on Sunday 14 July.

When and where was the EURO 2024 final?

The UEFA EURO 2024 final was played on Sunday 14 July, kicking off at 21:00 CET.

The match took place at Olympiastadion Berlin, the biggest stadium at the tournament with a capacity of 71,000. German second-tier side Hertha BSC Berlin play their home matches at the stadium, which has also staged every German Cup final since 1985 as well as several high-profile European and international games, most notably the 2006 FIFA World Cup final between Italy and France and the 2015 UEFA Champions League final, in which Barcelona beat Juventus .

As well as the 2024 showpiece, the stadium held three group stage matches, a round of 16 game and a quarter-final .

Which teams were involved in the EURO 2024 final?

Champions in 1964, 2008 and 2012, Spain became the first team to win four titles in what was their fifth EURO decider, their only defeat to date against France in the 1984 competition.

England finished runners-up for the second successive EURO, having lost the 2020 showpiece to Italy on penalties at Wembley Stadium – their first final appearance in the competition.

Had Olympiastadion Berlin staged a EURO final before?

This was the first time that Olympiastadion Berlin staged a EURO final. West Germany hosted the 1988 UEFA European Championship but the final was held in Munich, with Netherlands beating USSR 2-0.

Who was the referee for the EURO 2024 final?

François Letexier from France refereed the UEFA EURO 2024 final .

Who has played in and won the most EURO finals?

Spain became the most successful side in the history of the UEFA European Championship after winning the competition for the fourth time in Berlin. Germany have featured in six finals in total, while Spain appeared in their fifth at EURO 2024.

Have the hosts ever won a EURO final?

Spain (1964) , Italy (1968) and France (1984) all won the EURO final as host nations, but the hosts have also lost the decider on three occasions, with Portugal (2004) , France (2016) and England (2020) all upstaged on home soil. Germany were knocked out by Spain in the quarter-finals in 2024.

What has been the biggest win in a EURO final?

Spain beat Italy 4-0 to win the EURO 2012 final in Kyiv .

What was the highest-scoring EURO final?

Four goals have been scored in two EURO finals; Spain beat Italy 4-0 to win the 2012 showpiece while the 1976 decider between West Germany and Czechoslovakia in Belgrade ended 2-2 after extra time, with Czechoslovakia prevailing 5-3 in the shoot-out .

Has anyone won the UEFA Champions League and EURO final in the same summer?

Ten players have been on the winning sides in both the European Cup/UEFA Champions League and EURO finals in the same summer:

1964 : Luis Suárez (Inter & Spain) 1988 : Hans van Breukelen, Ronald Koeman, Berry van Aerle, Gerald Vanenburg (PSV Eindhoven & Netherlands) 2012 : Fernando Torres, Juan Mata (Chelsea & Spain) 2016 : Cristiano Ronaldo, Pepe (Real Madrid & Portugal) 2020 : Jorginho (Chelsea & Italy) 2024 : Dani Carvajal, Nacho, Joselu (Real Madrid & Spain)

Have any players played in more than one EURO final?

Thirty-one players have featured in two finals. England's Jordan Pickford, Kyle Walker, John Stones, Luke Shaw, Declan Rice, Harry Kane and Bukayo Saka joined this elite band at EURO 2024 after being involved in the Three Lions' loss to Italy in 2020 (Jude Bellingham was an unused substitute that night), while Ronaldo holds the record of appearing in finals 12 years apart (2004 and 2016).

No player has scored more than twice in a EURO final, with Fernando Torres (Spain, 2008 and 2012) holding the unique distinction of having scored in two separate deciders.   Berti Vogts (West Germany 1972, Germany 1996), meanwhile, is unique in having won the EURO as a player and a coach, having been a non-playing squad member in that 1972 final.

Where has the EURO final been held?

The final has been hosted by 14 different venues in 12 countries. The EURO 2024 decider was the 17th EURO final.
