Sarah Haskins is one of the sport’s best swim-bikers and a perennial podium finisher in the American non-draft circuits. She won the first ITU World Cup of her career this year in Monterrey, Mexico, and she has finally recovered from a nerve injury she suffered back in 2007 when she sprained her ankle during a race. The silver medalist at the 2008 ITU world championships and fourth at the 2009 Grand Final, Haskins should never be counted out for London.
