Francis BREBNER: "One of the best climax finishes"

If you read the blog, you know that Dan McKIM's won his 2015  title after a last-minute W.O.B 5.10 m victory under a pouring rain (photo: Thierry TURC)

If you are interested in the Highland Games you know that Francis BREBNER is the president of the International Highland Games Federation and a former caber-toss World Champion.

So his comment on the Bressuire Worlds is particularly interesting.

What a comeback!

"This was one of the best climax finishes to a World Highland games Championships I have ever witnessed...

what a comeback by Dan McKIM to take the crown in the last event just marginally over Matt VINCENT who is a great athlete and a great sports man!

Matt DOHERTY, in my books, is the best athlete lb for lb in the sport of Highland games at only 230lbm.

The entire World Championships was filmed by 6 TV net Works, with a main feature show being made for European TV.

 

The Worlds in Alaska next year

Looking ahead for the future with the IHGF World Highland Games Championships, they will next be hosted in Alaska USA.

There will be more updates soon on future locations of the IHGF World Championships from 2017 onwards.

That could be possibly be hosted in some new and incredible locations..."
