Commonwealth Games 2022: Men’s triathlon start list & bib numbers

The men’s elite triathlon at the 2022 Commonwealth Games will provide one of the highlights of Friday’s action as the showpiece event properly gets under way.

Some of the finest stars in the world will lock horns in the UK city of Birmingham with a prized gold medal on offer for the winner.

Will Alex Yee go one better on home soil than he did in Tokyo last summer?

Will New Zealand’s Hayden Wilde be too strong for Yee in the latest instalment of their gripping rivalry?

These and other questions will be answered on Friday when the action gets under way.

One thing we do know now is that South African star Henri Schoeman is a non-starter.
