Centred on London's historic and sprawling Hyde Park, there will be a distinct British feel for the triathlon events at the 2012 Olympics, but expect Australia to spoil the host country's party.

AUSSIES TO WATCH

Emma Moffatt

Age 27

Triathlon

Along with partner Brad Kahlefeldt, she has received an early nomination from Triathlon Australia for London. Struggled for form through much of last year, but the Beijing Olympics bronze medallist remains one of the best in the world. Emma Jackson (Getty)

Emma Jackson

Age 24

Triathlon

Unlucky not to receive an early nomination, Jackson is a rising star in triathlon who was Australia's best overall performer in the world championship series with fourth place. Emma Snowsill (Getty)

Emma Snowsill

Age 31

Triathlon

Has struggled for form, fitness and health since her outstanding gold medal at the last Olympics. But if she can regain her consistency, Snowsill is the one every woman will fear at the Games. Brad Kahlefeldt (Getty)

Brad Kahlefeldt

Age 33

Triathlon

The only Australian to make the top 10 last year in the world championship series. A consistent performer who needs to match his top rivals, particularly Great Britain's Brownlee brothers.
