Keerati sails to Olympic first

Promising Thai sailor Keerati Bualong, gold medallist at the 2010 Asian Games and last year's SEA Games, became the first Thai Laser sailor to qualify for an Olympics this week.

 The 19yearold from Nakhon Pathom secured his ticket with a remarkable run at the Audi World Laser Standard Seniors Championship (Laser Worlds) in Germany, qualifying for the elite Gold Fleet race where he finished 25th among 168 competitors.
