Citizen Cup
The Citizen Cup is a trophy which was awarded to the winner of a regatta held in 1992 and again in 1995 to decide on a defender of the America's Cup.
==History==
The formal America's Cup races are always between two yachts from different countries. This means that any syndicate from the country of the defending yacht club would not be participating in the challenger series. The yacht club defending the America's Cup staged a series of races to select the yacht to defend and race against the challenger for the America's Cup. For many years a defender series had been a part of the defender selection process and in 1992 Citizen Watch offered the Citizen Cup to be awarded to the winner of the defender selection series. In parallel the challengers competed for the Louis Vuitton Cup and the winner went on to challenge for the America's Cup.
The 1995 Citizen Cup regatta was won by ''Stars & Stripes'', however, the defending San Diego Yacht Club opted to race the second-place boat ''Young America'', sailed by the winning ''Stars & Stripes'' crew, in the succeeding America's Cup races as it was thought that this would give them the best chance of beating Black Magic of New Zealand.
