The Triathlon Hour

Matt Hauser is one of the best short course triathletes in the world. He recently won the bronze medal at the Commonwealth Games, has been featuring on podiums at WTS events and looks to be the next guy to challenge Alex Yee, Hayden Wilde and Kristian Blummenfelt as being the king of short course.
