TYR Sport Re-Signs Olympic Gold Medalist and 2X IRONMAN World Champion Jan Frodeno
Seal Beach, CA-March 14, 2018- TYR Sport is proud to announce the re-signing of Olympic Gold Medalist and 2X IRONMAN World Champion Jan Frodeno to its roster of sponsored athletes.
Certainly no stranger to the sport of triathlon, Jan Frodeno has spent nearly a decade turning heads at the highest level of competition. As a breakout star at the 2008 Summer Olympic Games in Beijing, Frodeno earned gold for his jaw-dropping sprint finish performance. Since then the 2x Olympian has kept the triathlon world on its toes. Making history in 2015 he became the first triathlete (male or female) to win both the Olympic Triathlon Gold and the IRONMAN World Championship title. In 2016, Jan clinched his second IRONMAN World Championship win. Most recently, Jan has taken home four major wins in IRONMAN 70.3 races throughout the world.
“After my first season and some great success in the water I‘m happy to remain a part of the TYR family. I think we‘ve found a good match in our relentless strive for better performance, and I‘m proud to be associated with the best in the business.”
Sharing in the sentiment, TYR Sport Chief Executive Officer Matt DiLorenzo commented, “Jan is a staple in the triathlon community. His talent and performance level have made him a true force in the sport, and we proud to continue supporting his success.”
