Azerbaijan`s triathlete Rostislav Pevtsov has won a gold medal at the 2017 Gran Canaria ETU Triathlon European Cup in Las Palmas, Spain.
The Azerbaijani triathlete secured the medal after timing 1.50.42 among 72 athletes, Azertac reported.
The national team included Rostislav Pevtsov and Kseniya Levkovskaya.
The Azerbaijani triathletes will also have a training camp in Las Palmas after the tournament.
The Azerbaijan Triathlon Federation was established in 2013.
Currently it is being affiliated with both World Triathlon Union
and European Triathlon Union on the basis of official appeal of the
National Olympic Committee.
Although triathlon is an innovative sport for Azerbaijan, success
in international sport gives the country a confidence that is worth
a great deal.
