Swiss number one Julie Derron produced an Olympic-distance Triathlon masterclass in Chengdu, China, putting together three superb segments to take her third World Cup win by almost a minute.
Hawley would finish 14th clocking a time of 1:59:08, she would exit the water in 20:41, and she would then clock a time of 1:00:26 on the bike Course, before closing out with a time of 36:45 on the Run Course.
Great Britain’s Max Stapley rose to the occasion, pulling clear of a four-deep lead group over the last lap to deliver a scintillating Olympic-distance Gold and register a first World Cup win.
At the halfway point the leaders’ gap was out to a minute, Holm along with Luke Bate, Tyler Smith, and Russell White among the 26-deep bunch trying to dig their way back into the race, but with little success.
Smith would eventually finish 24th clocking a time of 1:46:01, he clocked 18:20 on the Swim, 53:36 on the Bike, and 32:54 on the Run.
