New Zealand champion Hayden Wilde has shown his class after missing on an Olympic gold medal in a thrilling finish to the men’s triathlon on Wednesday. Wilde looked like a certain winner after pulling away in the gruelling run, but British star Alex Yee came from nowhere in the final kilometre to seal a stunning gold. Yee improved on his silver medal from Tokyo, winning the 1.5km swim, 40km cycle and 10km run event in one hour 43 minutes 33 seconds.
It culminated in organisers postponing the men’s race from Tuesday to after the women’s race, won by French triathlete Cassandre Beaugrand, who collapsed in a heap at the finish line. Australians Sophie Linn and Natalie Van Coevorden said they struggled with the Seine current. “It was more about the current than the actual dirtiness of the water by the end,” Van Coevorden said. “It was way stronger than the test event last year.
