YESTERDAY'S RESULTS
NEWPORT, R.I.--Skipper Dennis Conner, sailing conservatively after bolting into an early lead, steered Liberty to within one victory of the America's Cup by beating Australia II in today's fourth race, the closest of the series.
The American boat leads 3-1 in the best-of-seven content for the Cup the United States has held since the first competition 132 years ago. The fifth race is scheduled for Wednesday.
Liberty led by six seconds at the start and never trailed.
Comer, who had called a lay day for Monday for fear of the light winds predicted for Rhode Island Sound, found himself in similar unfavorable conditions for most of today's race. Southwest winds of 10 knots blew under bright skies at the start.
