“In the competition I beat my personal best and it got me close to the qualifying scores for Worlds,” says Thomas, who credits expert physiotherapy for his conditioning that helped him secure the win.
“My two other New Zealand teammates competing in the same event both got first and third, so overall it was the best turnout New Zealand could have had.”
Thomas’ final took place on 31 May, half way through the five day competition. Thomas was competing against Tasmania, Western Australia, New South Wales, Queensland, and Northern Australia.
