In the city of Greenville, Lydia O'Rear, the sister of Olympic champion Charlie Ogletree who helped navigate a two-man catamaran to capture the silver medal in the sailing tornado class competition, says she was elated when news broke that her brother, after 11 years of struggle and three Olympics finally captured a medal and was coming home a winner.
In former Olympic competitions the American sailing team came in eighth in Atlanta and seventh in Sydney.
