With competition for the Finn Class just 12 days away, the 24 sailors are ramping up for a fierce medal race. Favorites Ben Ainslie (GBR) and Zach Railey (USA) are just two players among any of the top 14 sailors who could arguably take home a medal of any color.

Today, the U.S. Olympic Committee announced the 530 members of the 2012 U.S. Olympic Team. Among the athletes will be 16 American sailors competing in 10 Olympic events, comprised of nine men and seven women. Seven of the athletes are returning Olympians, including 2008 Olympic gold medalist Anna Tunnicliffe and 2008 Olympic silver medalist Zach Railey. Railey was chosen by his teammates to serve as Team Captain.

With a little more than one year to the Atlanta Olympics, the results of the largest Olympic classes event in the U.S. made it clear that the pressure was on the U.S. team to pick up the pace. From our May 1995 issue.

Hoping to convince any doubters that sailors are athletes, too, 2008 gold medalist Anna Tunnicliffe goes sailing in the buff for ESPN the Magazine‘s annual The Body issue.
