RIO DE JANEIRO -- Saskia Clark and Hannah Mills were stuck on their 470 boat near the Marina da Gloria for nearly three hours in temperatures above 30 degrees celsius as they waited for the wind that was supposed to blow them to gold.They had hardly slept the night before, disturbed by the anticipation of a race they simply have to complete without serious error to claim the Olympic sailing title they have waited four years for.But no matter how many points the British pair have accrued from their performances here so far, the 2012 silver medallists could do nothing as the weather refused to provide the right conditions.A disappointing day, Mills said. We wanted to get things wrapped up but, as they say, good things come to those who wait, so we will be waiting another 24 hours.Clark, due to retire from sailing after the Games, added: It will be a massive relief when we get out there because its not done.It must be almost painful to have those gold medals so tantalisingly close and be deprived of the chance to claim them, so were they sitting their grinding their teeth in frustration?We were chatting away, said Clark. Han was putting the world to rights. If a bit of breeze comes in and it looks like its going to happen we get engaged, get our numbers, get a feel for conditions.Otherwise, we try to switch down a little bit so we dont fry our brains too early. That would have been an intense three hours if we had thought we were going to race the whole time.It was a bit too hot to be on the water [but] we could stay relatively calm because there wasnt something keep pulsing in so that we had to get ready and check everything. It was pretty mellow and never looked like it [would happen].Apart from talking to each other, they spoke with their coach and the television camera crew on a boat nearby, eat and took on water and hydration drinks and, apparently, there was lots of going to the toilet.After nearly a month in Brazil and 10 races leading up to the postponed finale, it seemed a little rough on Clark and Mills.But at least an afternoon on the water may have calmed their nerves a little before Thursdays attempt. We should sleep because we are so tired, Mills said.We have had a few delays but Rio is the sort of venue when we knew the wind could be tricky and we might have to wait every now and again -- and it has certainly proved that. We havent got it yet.When Clark and Mills finally get their medals they plan to celebrate with the family and friends who have made the trip to Brazil and have an evening at the Team GB house, but they arent taking things completely for granted.The plans can wait, said Mills. We will do another boat check to make sure nothing is likely to break and go through the whole routine again.She didnt need to say they would be checking the weather forecast - which looked better for them on Wednesday -- too.Kyle Turris Jersey .

LOUIS -- Alexander Steen scored a power-play goal with 59. NEW YORK -- Jurgen Klinsmann envisions Landon Donovan returning to the U.S. national team. Hes just not sure when. Back with the Los Angeles Galaxy following a four-month sabbatical, Donovan was bypassed for the American roster for three World Cup qualifiers next month. Klinsmann wont commit to recalling the 31-year-old midfielder for a pair of qualifiers in September. Donovan might be selected for the CONCACAF Gold Cup in July, when most of the Americans with European clubs will be given time off from the national team. "Well simply take it week by week and month by month," Klinsmann said during a telephone conference call Friday, one day after announcing his 29-man roster. A veteran of three World Cups, Donovan has appeared for the national team 144 times and is the American career scoring leader with 49 goals. Because of injuries, illness and the time off, Donovan has played in just eight of 25 games since Klinsmann replaced Bob Bradley as the U.S. coach in July 2011. Klinsmann has monitored Donovans play with the Galaxy. He has two goals and three assists in six league games since his return on March 30. "Ive seen him kind of catching up. Ive seen him getting a rhythm, getting more games in," Klinsmann said. "I dont see him ready yet to come back in our group, and on the other hand I see guys in our group that are ahead of him in his position or in the different positions he can play at." Seeking their seventh straight World Cup berth, the Americans have exhibitions against Belgium on May 29 in Cleveland, and Germany on June 2 in Washington, D.C., ahead of three qualifiers: at Jamaica on June 7, against Panama four days later in Seattle and versus Honduras on June 18 in Salt Lake City. The United States (1-1-1) is third in the six-nation final round of qualifying in North and Central America and the Caribbean with four points, one behind Panama (1-0-2) and trailing Costa Rica (1-1-1) on goal difference. Honduras (1-1-1) is behind the U.S. on goal difference, while Mexico (0-0-3) has three points and Jamaica (0-1-2) two. The top three nations qualify for next years tournament in Brazil, and the No. 4 team faces Oceania champion New Zealand in a home-and-home playoff for another berth. Even though Carlos Bocanegra has started seven straight games for Racing Santander in Spains second division after a benching of nearly two months, the former U.S. captain was bypassed by Klinsmann.dddddddddddd The coach said Bocanegra has dropped behind Omar Gonzalez, Geoff Cameron, Clarence Goodson and Matt Besler at central defender. "I clearly see Carlos only as a centre back in our roster. I dont see him as a left back, and there we are fully loaded," Klinsmann said. While Michael Parkhursts only games for Augsburg this year were on Feb. 10 and 16, he provides Klinsmann with cover at outside back. Klinsmann does have concern over Parkhurst and midfielder Brek Shea, limited to two substitute appearances with Stoke this year and none at all since March 10. "When players choose to go overseas and challenge themselves, then Im happy with it, but at the same time they need to also break through in Europe or otherwise they will struggle getting back into our picture," Klinsmann said. "An example certainly is Brek Shea. He wanted badly to go there and now didnt get his playing time. So hes kind of on the worst. He needs to figure out how he wants to continue his career." NOTES: While players will start to report to Cleveland on May 26, Roma MF Michael Bradley arrives May 30 after the Italian Cup final against Lazio. Tijuana D Edgar Castillo and MF Joe Corona also are due in May 30 after their Copa Libertadores quarterfinal against Brazils Atletico Mineiro. It is not clear when Santos Laguna F Herculez Gomez, Hoffenheim D Fabian Johnson and MF Danny Williams and Parkhurst will be able to report because of their club commitments. Williams, who hasnt played since March 30, has recovered from injuries and has been training for two weeks, according to Klinsmann. ... MLS players will stay with their teams for games May 26-27 before reporting. ... With Tim Howard the starter in goal and Brad Guzan his backup, Klinsmann will rotate his No. 3 goalkeepers, with Chicagos Sean Johnson in Cleveland, D.C. Uniteds Bill Hamid in Washington, Houstons Toby Hall in Jamaica and Salt Lakes Nick Rimando in Portland and Salt Lake City. Rimando appears to be the U.S. starter for the CONCACAF Gold Cup, which has gained in importance because the winner will play the 2015 Gold Cup champion for a berth in the 2017 Confederations Cup in Russia. ... Klinsmann might invite Aron Johannsson, a teammate of Jozy Altidore on AZ Alkmaar, for his Gold Cup roster, but the 22-year-old forward also is eligible for Iceland and has played for Icelands Under-21 team. 21:52ET 17-05-13 ' ' '
