By winning the 32nd America's Cup, Alinghi has changed what seemed to have become a tradition: that the winner of race three goes on to win the match. Emirates Team New Zealand, despite winning the third heat, was not able to capture the Cup. The score of the 32nd America's Cup has also differentiated the match from previous editions. The past three America's Cups – 1995, 2000 and 2003 – were all sweeps, with the victorious boat taking all races.

Date	Team 1	Team 2	Winner	Score	Delta	Timings	Race Summary
June 23, 2007	Alinghi SUI-100	Emirates Team New Zealand NZL-92	Alinghi	1-0	0:35	[1]	Stable 12 kts breeze with choppy sea. No aggression in the pre-start with both teams making good starts. Alinghi lead by 0:13 at the first mark and 0:14 at the final turning mark.
June 24, 2007	Emirates Team New Zealand NZL-92	Alinghi SUI-100	Emirates Team New Zealand	1-1	0:28	[2]	10 kts breeze. Aggressive pre-start with ETNZ winning the start but Alinghi led at the first two marks. Alinghi did not apply a tight cover allowing ETNZ to benefit and lead through to the finish.
June 26, 2007	Alinghi SUI-100	Emirates Team New Zealand NZL-92	Emirates Team New Zealand	1-2	0:25	[3]	Very light breeze with race start postponed twice. Aggression from Alinghi forced a poor start by ETNZ who used conditions better to lead by 1:23 at the 1st mark. The gap closed right up when ETNZ could not sheet their jib due to a spinnaker handling error. Alinghi leading at the start of the final leg allowed a left/right separation of more than a kilometre to develop. Closing the finish line ETNZ gybed slightly in front of Alinghi to win.
June 27, 2007	Emirates Team New Zealand NZL-92	Alinghi SUI-100	Alinghi[1]	2-2	0:30	[4]	Tricky 8 to 10 knot breeze. Alinghi made excellent full-speed start and rounded first mark 20 seconds ahead. ETNZ then made small gains but suffered wrap in the spinnaker during a gybe, allowing Alinghi to extend their lead. ETNZ continued attacking through to the finish.
June 29, 2007	Alinghi SUI-100	Emirates Team New Zealand NZL-92	Alinghi	3-2	0:19	[5]	Perfect 15 kts sea breeze. Aggressive pre-start. ETNZ forced Alinghi across the top of the Race Committee boat and into the spectator fleet. ETNZ lead by 0:12 at the first mark. For the 3rd race running ETNZ had spinnaker problems. A small rip developed in the spinnaker which then blew apart. The 2nd spinnaker was hoisted before it had been properly attached and blew like a flag from the mast head. The third spinnaker set worked after 4 minutes of chaos but Alinghi by now had gone into the lead. ETNZ got to within three boat lengths on the 2nd beat and within one boat length on the final leg but Alinghi lead through to the finish.
June 30, 2007	Emirates Team New Zealand NZL-92	Alinghi SUI-100	Alinghi	2-4	0:28	[6]	Aggressive pre-start but each team made a good start. ETNZ lead at the first two marks. After a tacking duel where Alinghi got a right hand shift, Alinghi lead at the 3rd mark through to the finish.
July 1, 2007	Alinghi SUI-100	Emirates Team New Zealand NZL-92	Racing Postponed	4-2	NA	NA	Unstable winds caused racing to be postponed. Race will take place on Tuesday July 3.
July 3, 2007	Alinghi SUI-100	Emirates Team New Zealand NZL-92	Alinghi	5-2	0:01	[7]	The teams crossing the finish line at the conclusion of race seven Aggressive pre-start with both boats at full speed off the line. Alinghi rounded the windward mark 7 seconds ahead. Down the run, spinnaker handling by ETNZ looked a little better and at the bottom gate ETNZ rounded the left-hand mark and Alinghi rounded the right-hand mark 14 seconds behind. ETNZ tacked over to loose-cover Alinghi and a tacking duel ensued with Alinghi making very slight gains on each tack until eventually, still a boat length ahead, ETNZ disengaged. ETNZ tacked onto port to lay the mark and immediately bore away to go under Alinghi on starboard. Alinghi flew a Y flag in protest, and the Umpires awarded a penalty against ETNZ for not keeping clear. ETNZ rounded the final mark 12 seconds behind. On the run to the finish ETNZ could not close the gap until Alinghi, on their final approach to the finish, had their spinnaker pole fly off the mast collapsing the spinnaker and all coinciding with a drop in the breeze and a massive wind shift. Alinghi, now virtually stationary were being overtaken. Nearing the line ETNZ did a double-tack to undo their penalty but Alinghi squeezed across the finish line 1 second ahead.
