Tuck's crew was not constant and changed regularly throughout the race.[2] On 27 July 2018 12.36 (UTC) she crossed the finish line becoming the first female skipper to win the Clipper Round the World race (or any Round the World yacht race).[9] The second-placed yacht was also skippered by a woman, Nikki Henderson.[2] Interviewed after the race, she said, “If one little girl sees this, sees it can be done and has a go, that will be what matters to me.”[9] Tuck has spoken about how she has been inspired by other yachtswomen such as Ellen MacArthur and Kay Cottee.[10] She will be a guest skipper on Maidens global voyage in 2018 in support of The Maiden Factor Foundation.[11] References1. ^{{Cite web|url=https://www.clipperroundtheworld.com/news/article/meet-clipper-201718-race-skipper-wendy-tuck|title=Meet Clipper 2017-18 Race Skipper Wendy Tuck|website=www.clipperroundtheworld.com|language=en|access-date=2018-07-28}} {{DEFAULTSORT:Tuck, Wendy}}{{Australia-yachtracing-bio-stub}}2. ^1 2 {{Cite news|url=https://www.bbc.com/news/uk-england-merseyside-44981245|title=First woman wins Clipper world yacht race|date=2018-07-28|work=BBC News|access-date=2018-07-28|language=en-GB}} 3. ^{{Cite news|url=https://www.eagleradio.co.uk/news/local-news/2630681/guildford-born-skipper-leads-team-to-victory-in-penultimate-clipper-race/|title=Guildford born skipper leads team to victory in penultimate clipper race|date=2018-07-15|work=Eagle Radio|access-date=2018-07-28|language=en-GB}} 4. ^{{Cite web|url=http://www.northwalespioneer.co.uk/news/national/16384291.first-woman-to-win-round-the-world-yacht-race-never-set-out-to-achieve-title/|title=First woman to win round-the-world yacht race never set out to achieve title|website=North Wales Pioneer|language=en|access-date=2018-07-28}} 5. ^{{Cite web|url=https://www.sail-world.com/news/201176/Wendy-Tuck-on-Leg-5-of-the-Clipper-Race|title=Wendy-Tuck-on-Leg-5-of-the-Clipper-Race|last=|first=|date=|website=Sail World|archive-url=|archive-date=|dead-url=|access-date=28 Jun 2018}} 6. ^{{Cite news|url=https://www.news.com.au/sport/sydney-to-hobart-2017-wendy-tuck-the-first-female-skipper-into-hobart/news-story/790b65775cddb5bf9cc5a4daa24b51c5|title=Wendy scores ‘surprise’ triumph|work=NewsComAu|access-date=2018-07-28}} 7. ^{{Cite news|url=http://www.abc.net.au/news/2016-01-19/first-australian-female-clipper-race-skipper-wendy-tuck/7098974|title=First Australian female Clipper Race skipper sets sail|date=2016-01-19|work=ABC News|access-date=2018-07-28|language=en-AU}} 8. ^{{Cite news|url=https://www.girl.com.au/wendy-tuck-clipper-round-the-world-yacht-race.htm|title=Wendy Tuck Sets Off In Clipper Round The World Yacht Race|access-date=2018-07-28|language=en}} 9. ^1 2 {{Cite news|url=https://www.dailytelegraph.com.au/sport/swoop/sydney-sailor-wendy-tuck-makes-history-with-victory-in-clipper-race/news-story/f01f8960f48b2ab47e910e2f90af1803|title=sydney-sailor-wendy-tuck-makes-history-with-victory-in-clipper-race|last=|first=|date=|work=Daily Telegraph|access-date=28 Jun 2018}} 10. ^{{Cite web|url=https://www.smh.com.au/national/nsw/first-australian-female-skipper-for-clipper-round-the-world-yacht-race-20150325-1m7793.html|title=First Australian female skipper for Clipper round the world yacht race|last=Phelan|first=Liam|date=2015-03-25|website=The Sydney Morning Herald|language=en|archive-url=|archive-date=|dead-url=|access-date=2018-07-28}} 11. ^{{cite web|title=The Maiden Factor: Maiden crew|url=https://www.themaidenfactor.org/Maiden/MaidenCrew|accessdate=28 November 2018}} 3 : Australian female sailors (sport)|Living people|1960s births |
