Taylor Knibb. Photo: Kevin MackinnonRemember all the angst after T100 San Francisco when Taylor Knibb competed in a series event and didn’t win? As we reported, the multi-talented American was coming off her second full-distance effort in Texas just a few weeks earlier, so it wasn’t much of a surprise that she wasn’t firing on all cylinders. Swiss Olympic silver medalist Julie Derron took the win in San Francisco, leaving Knibb to “only” finish second.
