RIO DE JANEIRO， Aug. 14 (Xinhua) -- Dorian Van Rijsselberghe from the Netherlands and Charline Picon from France split the men's and women's RS:X golds in the sailing competition of the 2016 Olympic Games here on Sunday.
Thus Van Rijsselberghe who defended his title in the class， said after winning the gold: "I'm very happy. We had a wonderful week sailing and today it was only a kind of show， but I'm glad that I pulled off another first place and win. I'm very fortunate."
"I think everybody is very happy for me. It's a huge thing of course after all of the support they put in and they see that it has played out，" he said about the meaning of the win.
Britain's Nick Dempsey took the silver medal like what he did four years ago in London.
Dempsey was not disappointed about the result. "No， never a disappointment. You know I've trained hard over the last four years and I've given it everything I had. I couldn't ask anything more of myself. I was only good enough for second here and I'm very happy."
It was Dempsey's fifth Olympic Games. He has been considering retiring.
"I will sit down when I have a quiet space on my own， but I think it will be. I would like to do some photography stuff， some coaching， work within the team. I am just going to take some time."
Pierre Le Coq from France took the bronze， the second medal for France in this event following silver by Julien Bontemps in 2008.
"It's crazy because this week it was very difficult for me. I had some ups and downs all along the week， and mentally， physically it was really hard. I knew it was the Olympic Games， my first Olympic Games and I knew it would be difficult. It was a great experience， I'm very happy to finish with a medal. It's a life achievement. I was dreaming about this since a long time ago and I just want to enjoy it and celebrate it with my family and friends，" said he.
Charline Picon from France won the gold in the women's RS:X.
On the hard fought medal race， Picon said: "It was such a hard race， the hardest of my life because the Chinese (Chen Peina) was so close to me and I had to fight until the line."
China's Chen Peina was only two points behind Picon to settle for a silver medal.
Chen was not disappointed about a silver medal. She said: "Before the competition started I think everyone had a chance to win， including me， so I am very happy to have got a medal."
This was Chen's first Olympic Games， and she was really happy for what she had achieved.
"I have worked very hard for this so I am delighted with the result of all the effort I've put in."
Stefaniya Elfutina from Russia took the bronze medal， which was Russia's second Olympic medal in a sailing event after it took silver in the soling in 1996.
MADRID Cheap Nike Air Max Outlet , Jan. 14 (Xinhua) -- The second half of the Spanish football season kicks off this coming weekend with the three favorites for the title playing their games on Sunday.
League leaders Atletico Madrid travel to play an improving Las Palmas with the disadvantage of having played their King's Cup tie 24 hours later than their rivals.
Las Palmas have picked up their performances under coach Quique Setien and will be a tough rival for an Atletico who will once again base their challenge on a solid defense and the effectiveness of Antoine Griezmann in attack.
Real Madrid received a moral boost when Zinedine Zidane's debut as coach ended in a 5-0 win at home to Deportivo la Coruna a week ago and they will expect a similar result when Sporting Gijon visit the Santiago Bernabeu.
The visitors have slipped away after a bright return to the Primera Liga and the limits of their squad have become clear as injuries and suspensions begin to bite. Sporting will be cheered on by 2,000 fans on Sunday Cheap Air Max 1 Outlet , but a repeat of the 0-0 draw they kicked the season off with would be a surprise.
Finally Barcelona, who have a game in hand over Atletico and Real Madrid Cheap Air Max 90 Outlet , entertain Athletic Club Bilbao, the only club to deny them a trophy in 2015 when the Basques beat Barca 5-1 in the Spanish Supercup.
Both sides made it into the last eight of the King's Cup on Wednesday Cheap Air Max Outlet , but with Barca able to rest Luis Suarez, Sergio Busquet Cheap Nike Air Max 1 , Iniesta and Neymar against Espanyol, they will hope to have the edge in the Camp Nou.
Saturday's games kick off with an interesting Andalusian derby as two improving sides Cheap Nike Air Max 90 , Sevilla and Malaga battle it out. Sevilla's impressive home form has lifted them to sixth in the table, while four wins and a draw for Malaga in their last five matches has taken them from the relegation zone to mid-table.
Celta Vigo look to be struggling following the sale of Augusto Fernandez to Atletico Madrid a fortnight ago and rumors of the return of Nolito to Barcelona won't help matters Cheap Nike Air Max , but even so they should have enough firepower to see off bottom of the table Levante.
Betis are in freefall following the sacking of coach Pepe Mel and a 4-0 Cup thrashing by local rivals Sevilla and a trip to fourth place Villarreal is probably not the place to recover bruised confidence.
Villarreal were knocked out of the Cup in midweek and are clearly focusing on finishing fourth in the table and it could be a long night for stand in Betis boss Juan Merino.
Saturday ends with Real Sociedad looking to continue their improved home form under Eusebio Sacristan against a Deportivo la Coruna reeling from a 3-0 Cup defeat at home to second division Numancia.
Gary Neville has yet to win a league game in charge of Valencia but will probably not have a better chance than Sunday's match at home to struggling Rayo Vallecano, which is a mid-day kick off.
Finally the round of matches ends on Monday as sixth placed Eibar look to keep their miracle going at home to Granada.
