In an emotional interview, Pembrokeshire sailor Micky Beckett thanks his family and British sailing colleagues for their support after a heartbreaking finish to his Olympic campaign.

Beckett looked to be heading for a medal in the men's dinghy event but after the second restart of the day, a windshift forced that race to be abandoned.

In the third attempt, the 29-year-old from Solva sustained three penalties and finished last, and subsequently sixth overall.
