Despite a pregnancy-induced hiatus for Queen Val, the kiwi Diamond League contingent has actually grown without its long-time pioneer. Tom Walsh is back to defend his crown and he’s been joined by Olympic bronze medallist Eliza McCartney.
Valerie Adams has competed in 39 shot put meets within the Diamond League calendar in her career. Of those 39 she has finished in the top three on 37 occasions and taken first place on 28 occasions.
The Olympics may have only just ended but the noble art-form of shot put knows no interruptions and with that both Valerie Adams and Tom Walsh were straight back into competition in Europe.
