Britons Hannah Mills and Saskia Clark had to be content with a silver medal after losing out in their final 470 shootout with New Zealand in Weymouth.

The two crews were already assured of a medal and shared the lead going into the winner-takes-all final.

But the GB duo were undone by a big wind shift on the opposite side of the course in the first leg and finished the medal race next to last.

New Zealand's Jo Aleh and Olivia Powrie won the race to clinch gold.

The Netherlands pair of Lisa Westerhof and Lobke Berkhout held off a number of boats to take the bronze medal.
