Former world champion Luca Brecel has switched his focus to competing in an Ironman triathlon in 2028 after his Northern Ireland Open exit.
It has not been the most conventional week of snooker for former world champion Luca Brecel as he shifts his focus from the table to Ironman.
The Ironman triathlon includes a 2.4-mile swim, a 112-mile cycle ride and a 26.2-mile run, and Brecel is aiming to race in competition in 2028. The 29-year-old added that he is likely to avail of some professional help as he continues his preparations for the gruelling challenge that awaits him. He also lost to Pang Junxu in the last 32 of the inaugural Saudi Arabia Snooker Masters and went out in the third round of the British Open.
