The story

The Metronome

Tomasz Wierzbowski was in his prime when electronic measurement began in 2003. The new data showed something nobody had seen before: his calls barely varied in length or volume from one chukka to the next. Commentators called him “the Metronome”.

Champion

He won the Indoor title in 2004, 2005 and 2007 and reached 12 finals in all.

“Same call. Same time. Every time.”Tomasz Wierzbowski
