Winning Odds

Both the male and female fields have an interesting mix of athletes that want to use their Kona fitness after have not being able to score too many points there (Butterfield, Wiltshire, Deckers, Holst) and athletes that haven’t qualified for Kona this season and want to start the 2017 qualifying cycle with a strong result (Croneborg, Nicholls, Riesler, Siddall). It’ll be two very interesting races in a demanding climate.
