EVENT: Sailing: Women's Windsurfing (IQ Foil)
Ten Have is a Youth Olympic Games athlete and has been the country’s top prospect in women’s windfoiling since making the switch from the non-foiling RS:X in late 2021. Since then, she has dominated the local scene and made rapid progress internationally - claiming several impressive results in her first season against the best iQFOILers on the planet (in 2022).
She continued her upward trajectory the following year, with bronze at the Princess Sofia Regatta in Palma de Mallorca, and sixth place at the Olympic test event in Marseille.
