On the 5th of December 2015, a cheque for USD1 million was awarded to Daniela Ryf, as the grand prize of HH Sheikh Nasser Bin Hamad’s Triple Crown award. Most commentators are saying that this is a turning point in triathlon and that it will change it, but I completely disagree with this view. What follows is why I think this is irrelevant, and how triathlon can actually change the game properly.
