Gomez and Moffatt victorious in New Zealand
Javier Gomez overcame a 1 minute deficit after the bike to win the 2008 New Plymouth BG Triathlon World Cup and with it his ninth world cup title. Emma Moffatt won the women's title and thus most likely helped her chances for a spot on the Aussie Olympic team.
