'Really happy with the consistency' - Kiwi shot put star Tom Walsh thrilled with Christchurch victory

Kiwi shot put star Tom Walsh's preparation for next month's Commonwealth Games are tracking nicely, with the world champion taking out the Super Shot competition in Christchurch this evening.

With a throw of 21.65m, Walsh won the men's event.

Speaking to 1 NEWS afterwards he said: "It was not too bad considering the weather tonight, it was a little bit cold".

"Backing up two days in a row is tough work."

"(I'm) really happy with the consistency."
