    A hectic start to Tom Walsh's shotput season

    A hectic start to Tom Walsh's shotput season


    The double Olympic bronze medalist kicks off his Diamond League campaign at the Prefontaine Classic in Eugene Oregon this weekend, the same venue where the world championships take place in July.



    Tom Walsh says he's physically in great shape and is hopeful of throwing well over 22 metres to contend this weekend.
