Ratu Kadavulevu School long distance runner, Sailosi Tubuilagi will be Fiji’s lone representative to this year’s Athletics World Championships in London.

Tubuilagi was part of the winning 4x400m relay team that won gold at this year’s Oceania Championships in Suva.

The 2017 Coke Games 400m gold medalist was selected by Athletics Fiji based on universality and has been earmarked for the 2020 Olympic Games.

He is currently ranked number 2 in this year’s 400m national rankings behind Samuela Railoa.

His personal and season’s best is 48.33 seconds.
