Maximilian Maeder gave Singapore a first medal of the Paris Olympics after securing bronze in the men’s sailing kite final on Friday. Maeder, whose father emigrated to Singapore from Switzerland, took third behind gold medallist Valentin Bontus of Austria and Slovenia’s Toni Vodisek. Five races in the final were due at Marseille Marina on Friday, following just one happening on Thursday, but only two took place amid calm winds. Bontus won all three final races to merit victory, having taken bronze in this year’s world championships also in France.
