San Diego Yacht Club

The Mission of the San Diego Yacht Club is to encourage and foster interest in all aspects of yachting. Tucked away in beautiful Point Loma, the San Diego Yacht Club is consistently ranked among the top 5 yacht clubs in the Nation and is recognized by the Club Leadership Forum as one of the finest facilities of its kind in the world.

Stories from San Diego Yacht Club

In 1886, a group of local boating enthusiasts joined together to found what has become a cornerstone yacht club in the annals of American yachting. San Diego Yacht Club’s facilities had humble beginnings in several locations, including an old ferry boat. SDYC has been at its present location on Point Loma since 1924. Its facilities operate year-round and include 576 boat slips, dry storage for 161 boats, tennis courts, a swimming pool, picnic areas, a full-service dining room, bar, banquet facilities, snack bar (summer only), gift shop, and an internationally renowned year-round Junior Program. SDYC members are dedicated to the principles and traditions of Corinthian yachting.

San Diego Yacht Club won the America’s Cup in 1987, 1988, and 1992, hosting the event in 1988, 1992, and 1995. In 1987 and 1988, Dennis Conner won the America’s Cup on behalf of SDYC. The competition was won a third time by SDYC in 1992, by Bill Koch on the yacht America .  In addition to America’s Cup, ten SDYC members have won the Star World Championships. San Diego Yacht Club has also had 13 members sail for their country in the Olympics earning 10 Olympic medals between them.

San Diego Yacht Club was founded in 1886 by five men who’d realized that the local bay was a great place for boating. Today the club is one of the most prestigious yacht clubs in the world, known for producing some of sailing’s top talent. Its first clubhouse stood at the tip of Point Loma on Ballast Point. In 1905, SDYC merged with the Corinthian Yacht Club, whose headquarters were downtown between B and C streets.

Years later, the clubhouse, which had moved into an old ferryboat named Silvergate , relocated across the bay to Coronado, near the ferry landing. Eventually a proper clubhouse, pictured above, was constructed. On January 14, 1934, at the break of dawn, the building was loaded onto two barges and towed across the channel from Coronado to Point Loma. It was maneuvered into place on pilings during high tide. This photo, taken 80 years ago, shows the clubhouse in its current and permanent location at the foot of Talbot Street in Point Loma. SDYC built a new clubhouse in 1963 that, with the exception of a few updates, is the structure that remains today.

The club has evolved in different ways over the years. Women did not become regular members until the 1930s. In 1928, Joe Jessop started the Junior Program, which is considered the best in the country according to a survey taken by fellow yacht clubs. The club hosts regattas about 46 weekends per year. From May 24 to June 3 it will host the College Sailing National Championship, welcoming young sailors from across the country. Main up!

• 5,000+ – The club’s current membership
• 3 Times SDYC has won the America’s Cup, including two victories by famed sailor Dennis Conner
• 10 – Olympic medals won by SDYC members
• 4 – Members in the National Sailing Hall of Fame: Lowell North, J. J. Fetter, Mark Reynolds, and Dennis Conner

50 YEARS OF SAN DIEGO YACHT CLUB’S MALIN BURNHAM

This yacht club history is reproduced from the SCYA 2017 Race Calendar & Yacht Club Directory

The San Diego Yacht Club, founded in 1886, boasts over 130 years of rich history including winning and hosting the America’s Cup, producing a world-class junior program, and operating under leadership from several prominent Commodores in the San Diego community. Malin Burnham, Commodore of SDYC in 1967, is one of these past leaders that inspires members as much today as he did 50 years ago.

Malin’s impressive sailing career started in the 1940’s when, at the age of 17, he became the youngest sailor to ever win a World Championship in the Star class. Proving that his win was not just lucky, Malin won another world title the next year at the age of 18. Malin has been on the winning Lipton Cup team for SDYC four times and has also won three San Francisco Challenge Cups. He sailed frequently on America’s Cup campaigns with Dennis Conner, helping lead Conner to his 1980 win. Malin played a key role in bringing the America’s Cup to San Diego when he was the President/CEO of the Sail America Foundation in 1987.

This can be seen when examining Malin’s seven virtues: commitment, dedication, hard work, teamwork, follow through, playing by the rules, and planning ahead. Over the years, Malin became a significant contributor to SDYC’s Junior Program, and helped fund SDYC’s Sailing Center, under the condition that these seven virtues would be printed on the building and taught in the junior program.

Malin’s influence is still recognized and commended in the contemporary sailing community. A few months ago, Malin was inducted into the 2016 Sailing Hall of Fame class with a special Lifetime Achievement Award. He also recently wrote a book named for one of his mantras, Community Before Self, regarding his philosophies on leadership and giving back.

Many SDYC sailors, adult and junior, keep Malin’s lessons and values close to heart when faced with challenges – sailing related and otherwise. Continued adherence to these timeless virtues proves that they are just as useful today as they were in 1967.

Haute Membership: The San Diego Yacht Club

What exactly does one have to do, besides own a yacht, to become a member of The San Diego Yacht Club , or the SDYC as it’s called?

First off, know your history. According to facts, this club dates back to 1886, when a group of boating enthusiasts joined together and formed one of the very first, and still one of the uppermost cornerstones, in Americal yachting history. Back then, they didn’t have one designated spot for meeting, they bounced around locations until 1924 where they settled in the Point Loma location they still use today. Since then, it’s grown from a group of die-hard boaters, to an highly organized business based on a dedication to teaching and living by the Corinithian principles of yachting, as stated by their website.

The club operates all year, with no off-season, and has everything from tennis courts, dining rooms, banquet facilities, swimming pools, and of course, a plethora of boats. It’s a fantastic place to become a member, and to do so, one must prove that you have past yachting experience, and a desire to grow that experience and participate in yachting activities. In addition, you must follow a guideline of application submissions including six references from current SDYC members, two sponsors with appropriate membership status, and aside from the other requirements, the applicant may only be requested to join by the sponsors only. In other words, you better know somebody. The SDYC is elite, but for good reason, as they take their club very seriously, and are careful to select people who will continue to participate and thrive in the yachting community.

In addition to the leisure activities, The SDYC also operates the philanthropic program of the San Diego Yacht Club Sailing Foundation , which is a non-profit corporation operating to increase education and promotion of amateur sailing activities, competitions, and all kinds of related maritime education. With an active scholarship and awards program, this foundation is increasing the young interests in all things marine life and sailing related.  The SDYC was also recently recognized for their many programs that support the US military. The San Diego Military Advisory Council awarded them reocgnition in December for their continued suuport and dedication to our armed forces. They were honored with the Achievement Award by the Council and were recognized for all they do for active duty servicemen and women in the US, and their families.

The SDYC is an organization this city is very proud of, and many wish to become a member. From their yachting activities, to their philanthropic programs, to their ongoing military support and edcuation, this is a club that is worth it’s standards of admission. Very Haute, SDYC, very Haute indeed.

The Malin Burnham Sailing Center at the San Diego Yacht Club includes space for the club's junior sailing program.

Roger Showley

The history of the San Diego Yacht Club since 1886 is displayed in a series of tiles on a "history rail" facing the clubhouse.

The Malin Burnham Sailing Center at the San Diego Yacht Club includes space for the club's junior sailing program.

Dedicated Sunday, the Malin Burnham Sailing Center and related buildings is named for the club member long active in yachting as well as real estate locally who donated to the project.

It was designed by Hanna Gabriel Wells and built by DPR Construction.

The club, founded in 1886 and located since 1924 at 1011 Anchorage Lane, sits on port tidelands near Shelter Island. It counts about 2,000 members.

“From the beginning, we were working on a tight schedule to ensure the new additions were complete prior to the busy summer boating season,” said DPR project manager Ross Brown. “We were proud to complete the project nine days ahead of schedule and turn it over to the San Diego Yacht Club with zero defects on the date of substantial completion.”

The project’s centerpiece is the 6,900-square-foot sailing center that houses the junior and high school sailing teams’ programs, the regatta manager’s office, dockmaster’s office, fitness and training room, plus classroom and banquet event spaces.

In addition the club’s archives dating back more than a century are stored in the building. They include thousands of photos, rare scrapbooks and artifacts and membership rosters and newsletters. Another historical feature of the building is a timeline on the railing that highlights the history of the club.

A two-story, 12,160-square-foot locker room building and 2,400-square-foot maintenance building also were constructed.

Other improvements included an 80-foot handicap-accessible gangway, stormwater management infrastructure and landscaping.

The project is expected to receive a LEED Gold certification for new construction from the U.S. Green Building Council in its Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design program. Green and sustainable elements included solar water heating panels, permeable pavers for stormwater runoff, natural ventilation, low-flow plumbing fixtures and energy-efficient heating, air conditioning and lighting systems.

“All of us on the San Diego Yacht Club board couldn’t be more pleased with our new world-class sailing center that will provide a larger space to serve our club’s membership and international sailing community,” said Chuck Hope Jr., president of Hope Engineering and club board member who was involved with the project.

Besides the architect and contractor, other consultants included B&G Consultants for project management; KPFF Consulting Engineers for structural engineering; McParlane & Associates for mechanical engineering; Nasland Engineering for civil engineering; Nowell & Associates for landscape architecture; and Sparling ILA Zammit for electrical engineering.

Funding came from membership dues.

A newly completed $8 million expansion of the San Diego Yacht Club in Point Loma includes new rooms for junior sailors, places to store their gear and a room to archive the club’s century’s worth of artifacts and documents.

“From the beginning, we were working on a tight schedule to ensure the new additions were complete prior to the busy summer boating season,” said DPR project manager Ross Brown. “We were proud to complete the project nine days ahead of schedule and turn it over to the San Diego Yacht Club with zero defects on the date of substantial completion.”

The project’s centerpiece is the 6,900-square-foot sailing center that houses the junior and high school sailing teams’ programs, the regatta manager’s office, dockmaster’s office, fitness and training room, plus classroom and banquet event spaces.

“All of us on the San Diego Yacht Club board couldn’t be more pleased with our new world-class sailing center that will provide a larger space to serve our club’s membership and international sailing community,” said Chuck Hope Jr., president of Hope Engineering and club board member who was involved with the project.

Setting Sail

The San Diego Yacht Club Sailing Foundation had its beginnings in the 1970s when members expressed interest in finding ways to provide increased support for the club’s mission and ensure its future. Frank Hope Jr., and Nick Frazee helped circulate those early ideas. In 1988, Paul Rayburn wrote to Gary Gould suggesting that the club establish a memorial to Ash Brown. Once again, the need for an organized group to handle such matters became evident, and in 1990, the Sailing Foundation was incorporated.

The original intent was to use donations to support the Junior Sailing Program founded by Joe Jessop in 1928. Jessop foresaw the club’s future in the development of young sailing enthusiasts. Not only has that vision been realized, but the program has grown in size and scope, offering opportunities for all youngsters in the community to participate, to experience the thrill of sailing, and to develop the skills and confidence that come with good seamanship and the Corinthian yachting tradition. In 1995, in order to ensure the club’s continued leadership and the expansion of its programs and outreach, members acted to restructure the Sailing Foundation. It was incorporated as a non-profit organization, the San Diego Yacht Club Sailing Foundation, under a designation that allows it to support a wide variety of activities through tax-deductible contributions.

Given this opportunity, pride in our history, and the support of caring members who want to share their love of sailing, the San Diego Yacht Club is committed to growing the philanthropy that will continue to sustain the Sailing Foundation in its mission of promoting national and international amateur sailing, maritime education and competition among people in the San Diego Area.

The San Diego Yacht Club Sailing Foundation is a California, non-profit benefit corporation exempt from income tax under Internal Revenue Code section 501C(3) and is a “qualified amateur sports organization” under Section 501(j) of the Internal Revenue Code, IRS Tax ID No. 33-0510953. Contributions to the San Diego Yacht Club Sailing Foundation are tax-deductible.

San Diego Yacht Club history

San diego yacht club company history timeline.

In 1888, the Excelsior Rowing and Swimming Club was formed with its first quarters at the foot of E Street, now Pacific Highway and E Streets.

Irene Phillips, in The Chula Vista Story, dates the Chula Vista Yacht Club as early as 1889.

SDYC’s first home was in Ballast Point in 1891 on the tip of Point Loma.

The first home of the San Diego Yacht Club was the northerly of the two keeper’s lighthouses at Ballast Point. It was here, on Admission Day, 1891, that the members first displayed their burgee.

Within one year after the organization of the State Normal School in 1897, rowing became an active part of the collegiate physical education program as well as the school’s social structure.

In August, 1901, the first race for the Montebello Loving Cup, donated by Mrs.

In 1905, SDYC merged with the Corinthian Yacht Club located between B and C Streets (now Broadway Street) downtown.

(By 1906) the physical education department had been divided into three groups: the Rowing Association, the Girls’ Athletic Association, and the Boys’ Athletic Association.

In an attempt to bolster its sagging membership, in 1916, the San Diego Yacht Club accepted the membership of the Coronado Yacht Club.

Finally, on August 18, 1923, the members raised their burgee over the completed clubhouse.

Miss Tanner decided to correct this tendency… In 1923, she brought the Women’s Athletic Association … on campus … and the rowing crews, as social organizations, went out of existence.

In 1924, the fourth annual Southern California Yachting Association and the Pacific Coast Yachting Association Regattas were held at the San Diego Yacht Club.

A second "site" was opened in 1924 in Point Loma because the water was deeper compared to Glorietta Bay in Coronado where the clubhouse was located.

In the late Fall of 1926, the first clubhouse, 20′ x 40′ enhanced by a large fireplace and a tower housing a flashing light, was completed at a cost of $700.

In 1927, Jessop asked the Navy if the San Diego Yacht Club could put their boats on the United StatesS. Gannet to be transported to Santa Barbara for that city’s annual regatta.

In 1928 a group of 6 juniors approached Commodore Joseph E. Jessop about starting a junior sailing program in the club.

Finally, on January 14, 1932, the clubhouse at Coronado was picked up, put on barges, and floated across to the Roseville site where it was placed on pilings at the end of the dock three blocks from land.

In 1932, an intensive drive was launched to refurbish the interior with new drapes and new rattan furniture.

In 1932, with the reorganization of the club, Henry Weston was elected commodore.

The clubhouse was then moved from Coronado to Point Loma on January 14, 1934 at dawn.

The Chula Vista Yacht Club like the Pacific Pioneer Yacht Club faded into obscurity, and the last known about the club is that its clubhouse was dismantled on March 18, 1934, and taken 250 miles south to Scammons Lagoon in Baja California where it was used for loading salt.19

In 1934, the San Diego Yacht Club proposed a merger of the two clubs.

By 1934 rowing was dropped from the curriculum because of the distance from the bay, and gone was the last connection of the women with one of the college’s oldest and finest traditions.59

In 1937, club member Milt Wegeforth won the International Star Championship (ISC). The San Diego Yacht Club had the honor of hosting the ISC the following year.

In 1939, a new dining room, lunch counter, ladies lounge, and an office were added.

On October 31, 1941, the clubhouse at the foot of Grape Street was sold to the Lemon Grove Post of the Veterans of Foreign Wars for $550.

During this same period Carl and Teddy Ackerman brought to the San Diego area the first Lightning class sailboat, the Tu Tu, which had originally been located at Pearl Harbor during the bombing in 1941.

Prior to 1941, yachtsmen on the West Coast were not racing for its beautiful trophy.

In 1947, two old WAVE barracks were purchased from the Navy, floated to the head of Glorietta Bay, and installed as the new clubhouse.

Lewis B. Lesley, San Diego State College, The First Fifty Years (San Diego: San Diego State College, 1947), p.77.

In January, 1948, the club’s first newsletter, the Whisker Pole, originated and named by club historian Ackerman, was issued.

On March 5, 1952, nearly twenty-five years after the formation of the Mission Bay Yacht Club, twelve men met at the Point Loma Anchorage Lounge to organize the Silver Gate Yacht Club.

Eventually, club membership grew to 73 with 35 yachts, until April, 1962, when it merged with the Southwestern Yacht Club.

The Commodore from 1965, Paul Kettenburg, was the President of Kettenburg Marine, which, during its time, was nationally known for the designing and manufacturing of high-grade sailing and competitive racing boats.

In January, 1973, the Cays Company moved the club facility to its present and permanent home on Grand Caribe Isle.

Space for a clubhouse was donated by the real estate developer in a sales office where Montego Village now stands.By September 1973, the Club moved into much larger rented space on Grand Caribe Isle and remained at this location for the next 21 years.

On May 11, 1974, the Club hosted its first invitational regatta, a Ranger Roundup.

Arthur DeFever, Commodore in 1974, founded the popular high quality cruiser company DeFever Yachts.

With a current membership of 400, the Southwestern Yacht Club is preparing for events which will commemorate their Golden Anniversary in 1975.

In 1987, Dennis won again on behalf of San Diego Yacht Club.

The San Diego Yacht Club Sailing Foundation was incorporated in 1990.

At the annual membership meeting in October 1991, Commodore Jack Figy presented a plan to change to an equity club, where members hold an ownership interest in Club facilities with the intent of funding construction of a new and expanded facility.

The America’s Cup was won a third time by SDYC in 1992 by Bill Koch on the yacht, America.

Just one year later, on September 2, 1994, Commodore Bob Tyner presided over the Opening Dedication attended by virtually the entire Club membership.

In the summer of 1997, the Club entered the big time in competitive sailing when Shillelagh , representing CCYC, won the coveted Lipton Cup.

Honored were 13 charter members of the original 90 who remained active in the Club.By 2002, the Club completed sales of all the 499 Equity memberships.

In 2004, the Foundation reached a milestone when it granted over $30,000 to aid youth programs under the governance of Staff Commodore Gary Gould.

🥇 Naomi Girma (USWNT) - Women's soccer

The U.S. Women's National Team took home the gold medal, beating Brazil 1-0 in the final soccer match at the Paris Olympics on Saturday.

Among those winners is San Diego Wave FC player Naomi Girma. She is also the first-ever player of Ethiopian descent to play for the USWNT.

The ladies took Team USA to their first Olympic championship in 12 years.

🥇 Jaedyn Shaw - Women's soccer

Although San Diego Wave FC player Jaedyn Shaw didn't play in Saturday's victorious game, she's still on the winning U.S. Women's National Team, so she earned an Olympic gold medal.

🥈 Brooke Raboutou - Sport climbing

While not from San Diego, Brooke Raboutou was educated in America's Finest City. University of San Diego alum Raboutou claimed the silver medal in sport climbing’s boulder and lead event at the 2024 Paris Olympics.

She made history becoming the first American woman to medal in the sport. It's the second medal in sport climbing for Team USA.

Janja Garnbret, the Slovenian who won the combined gold when sport climbing made its Olympic debut at the Tokyo Games three years ago, hugged the silver medalist and cried together in joy after the final.

The USD alum has been climbing since the age of 2, with a pedigree in climbing —  both her parents were world champion climbers in the 90s.

🥉 Alex Bowen - Santee

The U.S. men's water polo team beat Hungary in the bronze medal match with a penalty shootout victory with a score by Santee native Alex Bowen.

It's the three-time Olympian's first medal. The 2011 graduate of Santana High School attended Stanford University where he scored more than 200 goals.

With an 8-8 tied score, Team USA entered a penalty shootout. Hannes Daube, Max Irving and Bowen scored for the U.S., while Hungary was unable to score on any of its three attempts.

The bronze is Team USA's 10th ever medal in Olympic men's water polo, second all-time behind Hungary's 16. The team had not medaled at the Olympics since losing the gold medal match to Hungary and settling for silver at the 2008 Beijing Games.

🥉 Garrett Muagututia - Men's volleyball

The U.S. men’s volleyball secured bronze in a 3-0 win over Italy. The Americans won 25-23, 30-28, 26-24. The result is reassuring for the U.S. after a disappointing trip to the Tokyo Olympics, where they were eliminated in pool play. 

The team included Oceanside volleyball player Garrett Muagututia, who attended Francis Parker High School. His dad was a U.S. Navy SEAL and played volleyball for the U.S. Navy team. He was also an Olympian, competing in the two-man bobsled event for American Samoa at the 1994 Winter Olympics in Lillehammer, Norway.

Since winning their last gold medal in Beijing in 2008, the Americans have two medals (bronze in Rio and Paris) in their last four Olympics.

🥇 Kelsey Plum - Women’s basketball

USA women’s basketball eked out a 67-66 win against France to win its eighth consecutive Olympic gold medal in Paris.

Kelsey Plum, a Poway native, scored 12 points to help the US win over France.

As a collegiate athlete for Washington, Plum held the record for most points scored in NCAA women's basketball before  Caitlin Clark broke it  in February.

🥈 Nevin Harrison - Canoe Single 200m

American canoeist  Nevin Harrison , who lives in San Diego and attended San Diego State, was attempting to repeat as Olympic champion in the women's C-1 200m sprint.

But Harrison's repeat bid was denied by Canada's  Katie Vincent , who beat out the reigning champ by 0.1 seconds with a world-record time of  44.12 seconds . Harrison's second-place time was 44.13 — significantly better than the 45.93 she posted when she won the inaugural event at the  Tokyo Games  at age 19.

The event ended in a photo finish that left Harrison with a silver medal.

🥇🥇 Jennifer Valente - Women's cycling, track team pursuit

The United States won its first Olympic gold in the women's team pursuit cycling event. It's the 2nd gold for Scripps Ranch native Jennifer Valente, and fourth overall.

The U.S. beat New Zealand around the velodrome (that's cycling speak for a banked indoor track) in the gold medal match, putting up a final time of 4 minutes, 4 seconds over the race's 4 kilometers.

Valente was part of the bronze-winning team in Tokyo.

She then won her second gold of the game in the women's omnium to defend.

🥈 Tom Schaar - Park skateboarding

The skateboarder from Encinitas is taking home the silver in the men's park event. The 24-year-old earned a 92.23 on his second run, the highest of his three runs to take home his first Olympic medal.

Tate Carew, who went to Point Loma High School in San Diego, came in 5th place with a high score of 91.17.

Carew's best friend Gavin Bottger, of Oceanside, did not advance past the preliminary round.

🥇 Keegan Palmer - Park skateboarding (Australia)

Australia's Keegan Palmer, the defending champion from the Tokyo Games was born in San Diego before his family moved to Australia. Pictured above in the center, he maintains his title with another gold win with a top score of 93.11.

Brazil's Augusto Akio wins the bronze with 91.85.

🥉 Taylor Fritz - Tennis

Team USA earned another spot on the podium for men’s doubles tennis as Tommy Paul and San Diego County native Taylor Fritz (pictured on the left above) clinched the bronze win on Saturday.

Originally from Rancho Santa Fe, Fritz now lives in in Los Angeles and the Paris 2024 Olympics is his first Olympics experience.

🥉 U.S. Women's Rugby team

The U.S. women's rugby team , which trains at the Chula Vista Elite Athlete Training Center, had a  historic win beating Australia with a game-winning conversion to secure team USA its first-ever  Olympic rugby sevens medal .

Team USA's defense held strong early in the second half, holding the score to 7-7 until there was 1:25 remaining. In a photo finish, Alex Sedrick scored a try and hit the game-winning conversion on the final play to give Team USA a 14-12 victory over Australia.

Following the win, businesswoman Michele Kang announced a $4 million donation  over four years for the team's future.

🥉 Hans Henken - Sailing skiff

The U.S. men's skiff team is made of Ian Barrows and Hans Henken, who has a long history with the Coronado Yacht Club.

The pair won bronze with 88 points at the Paris Olympics, behind Spain and New Zealand. It was the first sailing medal for Team USA since 2016.

🥈🥉 Brady Ellison - Archery

Brady Ellison, who has lived and trained in Chula Vista off-and-on, made his fifth Olympic appearance.

He and his mixed team pair Casey Kaufhold beat India, 6-2, to win the bronze medal in the mixed team archery competition.

In the individual competition , Ellison was less than five millimeters away from his first Olympic gold. In a winner-take-all fifth set, Ellison and South Korea's Kim Woo-jin shot a perfect 30 to send the match to a  single, decisive shot . Ellison's shot was just a sliver further away from the very center if the target, cementing silver for the U.S. athlete.

It's Ellison's fourth and fifth Olympic medals — he's previously won two silvers and a bronze. It's the first Olympic medal for Kaufhold, the top-ranked women's archer in the world entering these games.

🥈 Jagger Eaton - Street skateboarding

The Encinitas local upgraded to silver at the 2024 Paris Olympics. Following the competition, Eaton told NBC 7 he "wouldn't be the skater I am without living in San Diego."

Eaton, a Tokyo Olympics bronze medalist, finished with a 281.04 total score in the final, putting him just one-tenth of a point behind Japan's Yuto Horigome, who successfully defended his gold medal.

Read the full story here and watch the highlights below:

🥈 Shanieka Ricketts - Triple Jump (Jamaica)

San Diego State Alum Shanieka Ricketts secured her first Olympic medal representing Jamaica at the 2024 Paris Olympics.

Rickets lept 14.61m in her first jump, 14.87m in her second and secured top eight after three more attempts, SDSU Athletics said. On her final jump, she went 14.73m and secured a spot on the podium.

🥇 Caroline Marks - Women's surfing

While not technically a San Diegan, surf culture is so Southern California that we can claim Orange County surfer Caroline Marks as one of our own, right?

Marks, the reigning world champion, secured gold in the  waters off the coast of Teahupo'o, Tahiti , triumphing over Brazilian Tatiana Weston-Webb with a score of 10.50 following days of weather delays. It was her first medal after missing the podium in Tokyo.

Marks, who hails from Melbourne Beach, Florida and now lives in San Clemente, California,  shared her excitement before the final round , already knowing she'd be going home with a medal -- the only question remaining what color.

"I’m so happy. It feels so good … I was really emotional about not medalling in Tokyo, so I’m going to stop talking now because I’ll get emotional now that I know I’m going to get one," Marks said to Olympics. com after advancing to the gold medal final. "I sliced my foot a few times on the reef, so I’m glad it worked out. I’m just so happy. Best feeling ever — such a big heat. I’ve had some big moments in my career and that win felt pretty big. Stoked I got the score."
