World Triathlon Championship: Beth Potter joint leader after Weihai gold

The Paris 2024 double bronze medallist held the lead, allowing her to ease off for the victory lap and comfortably cross for her second series gold.

“I’m just thinking about myself, about my race processes and I’m really happy with that,” Potter said.

“I don’t take winning for granted so it’s great to back up my win in Karlovy just 12 days later.

“I’m feeling quietly confident and good in myself, trusting the training and it’s coming good.”

In hot, humid conditions in Weihai, Potter’s compatriot Sophie Alden earned a sixth-place finish on her debut at this level while in the men’s race, Jack Willis and Connor Bentley ran in 11th and 13th respectively for Great Britain.

“Beth once again delivered a masterclass and showed that she’s getting right back to her very best,” British Triathlon performance director Mike Cavendish said.

The 2025 World Triathlon Championship series will conclude in Australia on 15 October.
