    Tom Walsh has laid down a challenge to his rivals ahead of the 2019 shot put season

    Tom Walsh has laid down a challenge to his rivals ahead of the 2019 shot put season


    The world number one ranked shot putter is squarely focused on his world championship title defence in Doha in October.

    Walsh says he has every intention of keeping the crown he claimed in London in 2017.

    He says he doesn't like giving things up and that's why it's his focus.

    Tom Walsh opens his season at next week's Potts Classic in Hastings.
