    A belief any dust has been swept out of the shot put circle for Tom Walsh

    A belief any dust has been swept out of the shot put circle for Tom Walsh


    He'll duel with Jacko Gill this afternoon at track and field nationals in Dunedin - before heading to Nanjing for World Indoor championships.

    Walsh has competed at two domestic meets this summer - on return from a torn adductor that occurred during the Paris Olympics.



    The final begins at 5.20pm.
