Matthew Hauser has won his first Noosa Triathlon, adding to his world championship triumph.
Hauser broke from the pack on the 40km bike leg and held off American John Reed by one minute over the 10km run to win in 1 hour 42 minutes and 38 seconds.
Defending champion Brayden Mercer fell on the bike leg, while Luke Willian finished third.
Bit nauseous, but elated. It's good to get on the top step.
Hauser's win caps a dominant campaign, becoming Australia's first world triathlon champion in 15 years.
