This Weeks Discussion: Toni Hodge sent through this question, here's her message: Leaving aside the typical controversy of giving spots to celebrities, there is another issue which is the fact that he joins a long line of MALE celebrities being given this opportunity.  Women are currently underrepresented in the sport and so we should be encouraging WTC to find a female celebrity to take on the challenge and inspire women around the world. So, question of the week, which female celebrity would you like to see WTC inviting to race at Kona in 2015? Comment here.
