Tomas Walsh - World Champion Shotputter

By TBHS | Posted: Wednesday August 9, 2017

Timaru Boys’ High School extends warmest congratulations to our Old Boy, Tom Walsh who is the newly crowned IAAF Shotput World Champion.

Tom’s success in London follows his Olympic bronze medal, world indoors gold and overall Diamond League crown achieved last year, and looks set to be New Zealand's most laudable sporting achievement of the year.

The success of our Old Boys is always gratifying to see, none more so than when we produce a World Champ!

Congratulations also to Peter and Karen Walsh, Tom’s parents – we are immensely proud of you all.
