Olympic silver medallist Peter Burling will exchange the helm of his 49er two-person skiff for the helm of a five-person AC45 wing-sailed catamaran.

The 21-year-old has been named as the new skipper for Team Korea's White Tiger Challenge, which will contest the next round of the America's Cup World Series in San Francisco.

Team Korea plans to start training in San Francisco from Monday.
