Britain’s Emma Wilson, winner of the Women’s iQFOiL windsurfing, was crowned outright champion of 54 Trofeo Princesa Sofía Mallorca by FERGUS Hotels.

Wilson’s triumph is the finishing touch to one of the best performances by the British team in the history of the prestigious regatta in Mallorca, with a total of nine medals in this edition, five of them gold.
