The Bermuda Tourism Authority and the International Triathlon Union have signed a three-year contract to host World Triathlon Series events with the first to be held on April 28 next year.

The ITU has already inspected and approved the racecourse for the World Triathlon Bermuda. Sprint and standard distances will offer a swim in the crystal clear Atlantic Ocean, a challenging bike course over hilly terrain and a run along Front Street.

Flora Duffy, the reigning ITU World Champion, said her local knowledge could prove decisive during the race.
