Great Britain's Beth Potter wins Olympic triathlon bronze after the race is cleared to go ahead at Paris 2024 following days of uncertainty over the water quality in the River Seine.
Great Britain's Beth Potter battled to a superb Olympic triathlon bronze after the race was cleared to go ahead at Paris 2024 following days of uncertainty over the water quality in the River Seine.
Potter, eight years after she finished 34th in the women's 10,000m at Rio 2016, was nine seconds further back as British team-mate Georgia Taylor-Brown finished sixth. The men's race, featuring Great Britain's Alex Yee and Sam Dickinson, is scheduled to begin at 09:45 BST.It was one of the most remarkable moments in recent triathlon history which helped inspire Potter to make the switch to the multi-sport event.
With that success asserting her as one of the Olympic gold medal favourites in Paris, Potter lined up with the additional confidence gained by winning the Olympic test event here in Paris last August.
