Hi Begemot, you need to look up the 'compatriot' winners of the tourist events in 2018. Each has an associated specific colour. And the three identical shapes you end up with in the final grid are laid over each other so you don't see each of them separately,

Hi jobobs, 31d cycling' refers to reordering the letters in a fairly common synonym for 'elites' to get another (less common) slang synonym for 'whizz along'.
42d; the 'support' is the usual golfing one.

Very late to this...when the rows are cycled ..the columns have the same letters in...so column 1 should have the letters of 2 more tourists...but my 14 letters in column 1 don't seem to anagram into anyone? Am I understanding it wrongly?

xwordfan, your letters in column 1 are not anagrams, they are the normal 7-letters names of two (non-British) tourists. Do the cycling once you have those in place
As other posters have said, if you do the row cycling correctly, you will see the name of a tourist event in column 14.

Still trying to complete this, do you mean tourist event in row 14, or column 12 - as there are only 12 columns?!
