According to many reports, today could be “the greatest day in America’s Cup Sailing history” as Larry Ellison’s Oracle Team USA makes a comeback run in the finals. As millions watch, the America’s Cup Sail Racing final will play out live online and on television.
A final race today will ultimately decide the fate of Team USA after a series of ups and downs over the last three weeks of America’s Cup sail racing. “Never before in the history of the America’s Cup has it been so close,” Regatta Director Iain Murray said Tuesday.
For those looking for how to watch the America’s Cup live online or on television, it has been reported that NBC sports will carry the event live this afternoon at 4PM eastern, and viewers can also watch the 2013 America’s Cup final race live online via streaming video from NBC Sports Live Extra.
As the defending champions from last year’s America’s cup, Larry Ellison’s Oracle Team USA, was just a single loss away from elimination in the 2013 America’s cup race last week. Rather than a loss, however, Team USA won its seventh consecutive race creating a tie in the event.
Now with just a single race to go, today’s America’s Cup Sailing final, in San Francisco Bay, could be one of the greatest, and most dramatic comeback’s in sports. All that stands between Team USA and the 2013 America’s Cup Championship is Emirates Team New Zealand.
