Ashleigh Gentle and Max Neumann are returning triathlon glory to Australia.
In the 1990s and 2000s Australia dominated triathlon with the likes of Michelle Jones, Emma Snowshill, Emma Carney, Mirinda Carfrae, Chris McCormack, Peter Robertson and Craig Alexander. However, Australia has now gone 7 years without a world champion.
Ashleigh Gentle dominated the inaugural PTO Tour in 2022 winning the Canadian Open and US Open, as well as winning her match at the Collins Cup. 2023 has proven a little tougher having landed back to back second place finishes and she now as to step it up in Singapore to prove she’s still the ‘Queen of the 100k’.
Meanwhile, Max Neumann burst onto the scene twice in the past year, having dominated long distance triathlon in Australia. He placed fourth at the ironman World Championships in Kona before causing somewhat of an upset against three Olympic champions at the 2023 European Open in Ibiza.
This is the Aussie way and when it’s working there’s very little you can do to stop it.
