Kevin McDowell of USA looks like his nose is running after the 16:41 he ran for the 5km to finish as the silver medallist. The cap he has on is, according to him, his “lucky hat”. “One race I didn’t wear it, I crashed. I’ve worn it ever since,” he says. On his cap are the signatures of triathlon’s big names such as 2008 Olympics and 2009 World Championship female gold medallist Emma Moffatt and 2008 Olympics male gold medallist Jan Frodeno.

Are you sure the CHIEF National coach made that comment about Scott? He can’t even speak proper English!
He spoke in Mandarin. The writer translated. You heard the interview? You have a different version? If so, feel free to share it.
Hi Deli, I know he can’t speak very much English.
I had spoken to him in Mandarin. And though my Mandarin is not the best, it is still of conversational standard. Heh.
If anyone knows the story differently from what we have understood and portrayed here, do let us know and we’ll corroborate. Thank you.
