Andrew Yorke a particip\u00e9 \u00e0 son premier triathlon international en 2007. En 2006, il avait rat\u00e9 sa qualification pour l\u2019\u00e9quipe des mondiaux juniors. C\u2019est cette qualification manqu\u00e9e qui l\u2019a motiv\u00e9 \u00e0 s\u2019investir corps et \u00e2me l\u2019ann\u00e9e suivante, un point tournant de sa carri\u00e8re. En 2008, Andrew a souffert d\u2019un abc\u00e8s \u00e9pidural et il croyait qu\u2019il ne pourrait plus participer aux triathlons professionnels. Heureusement, il a r\u00e9ussi \u00e0 prendre part \u00e0 toutes les comp\u00e9titions de grande envergure depuis cette blessure, hormis Londres\u00a02012 o\u00f9 il \u00e9tait rempla\u00e7ant.<\/p>\n

Apr\u00e8s ses d\u00e9buts sur le circuit de la Coupe panam\u00e9ricaine, il a fait son entr\u00e9e sur le circuit de la Coupe du monde de l\u2019ITU en 2010. La m\u00eame ann\u00e9e, il s\u2019est joint \u00e0 l\u2019\u00e9quipe nationale de d\u00e9veloppement et a ensuite rejoint l\u2019\u00e9quipe nationale senior en 2013. Andrew a perc\u00e9 aux Jeux du Commonwealth en 2014, \u00e0 Glasgow, o\u00f9 il a termin\u00e9 au 4e<\/sup> rang d\u2019une comp\u00e9tition tr\u00e8s relev\u00e9e. En 2015, il a rat\u00e9 de peu le podium de la Coupe du monde lorsqu\u2019il a termin\u00e9 4e<\/sup> \u00e0 l\u2019arr\u00eat de New Plymouth, en mars. Aux Jeux panam\u00e9ricains de 2015 \u00e0 Toronto, il a \u00e9t\u00e9 le meilleur triathl\u00e8te canadien avec sa 7e<\/sup>\u00a0position. Il a aussi souffert de plusieurs autres blessures, dont deux fractures de stress au tibia en 2009 et 2011, ainsi que des fractures aux c\u00f4tes en 2013 et en 2015. Il a effectu\u00e9 ses d\u00e9but olympiques lors des Jeux de Rio, en 2016.<\/p>\n

\u00c0 propos d’Andrew<\/strong><\/p>\n

Famille\u00a0: <\/strong>Il est le fils de Ward et Tracey Yorke. Sa s\u0153ur cadette s\u2019appelle Amy. D\u00e9buts\u00a0: <\/strong>Il a particip\u00e9 \u00e0 son premier triathlon \u00e0 l\u2019\u00e2ge de 12\u00a0ans parce que son p\u00e8re et lui se sont inscrits ensemble \u00e0 un club. En voyant Simon Whitfield remporter la m\u00e9daille d\u2019or \u00e0 Sydney 2000 et Peter Reid gagner l\u2019Ironman \u00e0 Hawaii, il a trouv\u00e9 que le sport avait l\u2019air cool. L\u2019effort physique \u00e9prouvant et le d\u00e9passement de soi sont les aspects qui l\u2019attirent vers ce sport. Au-del\u00e0 du triathlon\u00a0<\/strong>: Il a obtenu son dipl\u00f4me sp\u00e9cialis\u00e9 en histoire de l\u2019Universit\u00e9 McMaster en 2014. Il \u00e9paule des organismes comme Right to Play et Canadian Hero Fund. Il a grandi en faisant de la comp\u00e9tition en ski de fond, en athl\u00e9tisme, en v\u00e9lo de montagne, en soccer et en basketball. Pendant l\u2019entre-saison, il aime faire du camping et p\u00eacher. Il aime jouer au baseball, au football et aussi jouer de la guitare. Il aimerait devenir policier. Sa citation pr\u00e9f\u00e9r\u00e9e\u00a0: \u00ab\u00a0Tu peux toujours arr\u00eater.\u00a0\u00bb \u2013 Son grand-p\u00e8re, Bert Yorke. Avant une course, il se fait couper les cheveux, il se rase les jambes et il \u00e9coute les deux m\u00eames chansons. Il aime aussi ramasser des objets sur le parcours de chaque course, comme une feuille ou une plante, qu\u2019il garde sur lui pour se donner du courage. On le surnomme Yorkie et The Dog.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
