Aaron Harris has said that he is happy to be seen as an underdog heading into the men's triathlon at the Commonwealth Games.
The England triathlete has had two top-10 finishes in World Series events this season, but the majority of the focus in the build-up to the event has been on brothers Alistair and Jonathan Brownlee.
"I am excited and looking forward to it. I have had a good few weeks in training, so hopefully I can go really well," the Basingstoke Gazette quotes the 26-year-old as saying.
"Whether or not I can get a medal depends on how the race works out, because on my day, I know I can get close to the other guys battling near the head of the race.
"Because the Brownlee brothers have a higher profile, people will be talking about them and putting pressure on them to win medals. I'm quite happy with that, but it's a chance for me to show that I'm more than that. I like to prove people wrong, so it's good to be going into the race as an underdog."
The men's triathlon gets underway at 3pm.
