US EditionAn America's Cup without an American boat? American Magic says it may not sail in Naples
- American Magic has raised concerns that it may not compete in the 2027 America's Cup planned in Naples, Italy, risking no American entry for the first time.
- The uncertainty follows Team New Zealand's announcement to host the regatta in Naples and alleged lack of transparency and cooperation in arrangements with Italian organizers.
- British challenger Athena Racing supports American Magic's position and criticizes insufficient information on the event's framework and the Naples hosting deal.

- If American Magic withdraws and no other American team enters, the 38th America's Cup will mark the first without an American syndicate, potentially changing the event's longstanding tradition.
