Sisters Cade and Tallulah Wright Tipped for Triathlon Greatness

High-achieving sisters Cade and Tallulah Wright have been tipped to grow into two of Hong Kong’s greatest triathletes, on condition they narrow their focus on the sport until at least the 2032 Olympics.

Poised for Asian Games debuts in September, the 23-year-old twins have juggled their senior international emergence over the past few years with studying at The University of Edinburgh.

A talented linguist, Tallulah Wright completed her international relations degree this summer and is professionally ambitious, while Cade Wright is deliberating over whether to delay the final year of her mathematics degree.

They both performed soundly in their final Games preparation races in Canada over the weekend, albeit a minor shin issue forced Cade’s withdrawal from the individual event before the closing run.

“Tallulah and Cade both have the potential to be great athletes if they focus and stay consistent over the next four-to-six years,” said Andrew Wright, the head coach, who is no relation to his athletes.

“I’d say they are capable of winning major games medals and achieving Olympic qualification.”
