Duffy Named Best Overall Triathlete Of 2017
Bermudian Flora Duffy has been named 2017′s best overall female triathlete by Triathlon.org, which said that her performance through 2017 “only gets us more pumped and excited to see what she can do in 2018.”
The story said, “Every year and every single new triathlon season always brings its own set of memorable moments such as exciting performances, close battles on the race course, personal best finishes and emotional triumphs. The 2017 season was no different, from the World Triathlon Series, World Cups, Multisport milestones and Paratriathlon Championships, the whole entire season was one for the record books.
“So, what better way to honour an amazing season such as the one of 2017 than to name the Best of the Best!
“Duffy will forever be known as one, if not the top cyclists in the triathlon world. However, over the last couple of seasons, Duffy has proved that her strength does not lie in only pedalling alone.
“She has transitioned into one of the best overall triathletes, where she excels in all three disciplines – swim, bike and run. With her six WTS wins in 2017 and her second WTS World Crown, Duffy continued to be on fire in 2017, which only gets us more pumped and excited to see what she can do in 2018.”
