Israel's Noga Geller surged to the summit of the women's RS:X leaderboard as she won all three races on the second day of the Sailing World Cup in Miami.

Geller has a total of three points at the top of the standings following a dominant day of racing for the Israeli.

Olympic bronze medallist Stefania Elfutina of Russia is five points adrift in second, while third place is occupied by Japan's Fujiko Onishi on 17 points.

"All my races were smooth, and I kept good speed and tactics in all," said Geller.

"It was really close between [Stefania and I], especially the last race.

"I started second and I caught up on the gate. 

"In the end, I went to the better side, which paid off."

Switzerland's Mateo Sanz Lanz leads the way in the men's RS:X standings after two victories and a discarded seventh saw him end the day with two points.

He has a slender one-point advantage on the overall standings with four.

Australia's Rio 2016 Olympic silver medalist Nacra 17 sailors Jason Waterhouse and Lisa Darmanin also claimed three race wins to strengthen their position on the leaderboard.
