Prince William and Kate Middleton went head-to-head again on Wednesday, this time with a foam javelin. During their Canada visit last year, William beat his bride in a dragon boat race. The prince came out on top again, reportedly throwing the rocket five feet farther than his wife. As part of the Diamond Jubilee celebration, William spoke at the event, saying, "Fields in Trust is very dear to my grandparents' hearts, as it is to mine." Queen Elizabeth II was present for the event at Vernon Park in Nottingham, England. William noted that Prince Philip "very sadly cannot be here today."
