Youth Olympics: Bronze medal for Just v. Aanholt

Just van Aanholt, born on Curacao, was the last athlete competing at the Youth Olympics in Singapore. Before the last sailing race (Byte CII class), he was ranked 4th. With faith and motivation Just miraculously  succeeded in winning the last race, and then won the Bronze Medal for the Netherlands Antilles.

Virgin Islander Ian Barrows sailed to gold in the boy’s Byte CII class. His score of 44 points gave him a 16-point margin of victory over Germany’s Florian Haufe, who claimed silver.
Just van Aanholt made it two Caribbean nation medals on the podium and was proud of his experience in Singapore.

“I feel very happy, at one moment I was looking back all the time, I’m just very happy. I think I’m going to celebrate with all my friends.” “The Caribbean sailors are having a very good generation!”
