It’s indoor time! Get ready for the supertri E World Triathlon Championships
Two world titles are up for grabs this Saturday at the supertri E World Triathlon Championships powered by Zwift in London on Saturday April 13. And for the first time, the 2024 edition is all about a one-off extravaganza with up to 60 athletes competing.There will be no margin for error as three heats will determine the top 10 women and men who will make it through to the evening finals for a chance to lift the titles. Start lists are filled with talent! Get ready to watch some epic battles as some of the most laureated Olympic athletes of the world take the stage.
Women’s race
The showdown between Olympic favourites Beth Potter and Cassandre Beaugrand is the headline battle in the women’s event. They are currently the top two in the world rankings and this will provide an early indicator of form ahead of Paris. Potter just got the better of her French rival when it mattered at the end of last season and both have an excellent record in this format.
But they won’t have it all to themselves - American superstar Katie Zaferes is desperate to boost her prospects of an Olympic place and will need a big performance to do so, while fellow mum Vicky Holland is aiming to showcase her Paris credentials too.
And watch out for 16 year old Fanni Szalai, the Hungarian phenom who burst onto the world scene in this series in 2023. She’s continued her meteoric progress since then and underlined her complete dominance of European junior racing recently in Quarteira.
Men’s race
And it’s a similar story in the men’s event as U23 World Champion Simon Henseleit of Germany wears #1.
Up against him is Chase McQueen, back in London and seeking redemption after things unravelled in the final 12 months ago following his victory in this format in Montreal.
And there’s a group of young Brits looking to highlight their Olympic claims, with many eyes likely to be on rising star Hugo Milner. He makes his debut in this fast and furious format, knowing that in this format, it’s all about the transitions when every second counts.
Previous winners
What was then called the Arena Games began in 2020 to enable live professional triathlon to continue behind closed doors during the global COVID-19 pandemic.
It was so popular that it’s gone from strength to strength and the world’s first Esports Triathlon World Champions were crowned in Singapore in 2022 - Brits Beth Potter and Alex Yee.
Sophie Linn (AUS) and Henri Schoeman (RSA) would emerge as the victors after a three-event series 12 months ago.
But on Saturday it’s a one-off winner-takes-all showdown in London.

T100 athletes get ready for the heat at the Singapore T100
Everything is ready for the second stop on the new eight-leg T100 Triathlon World Tour: Singapore. Defending women’s champion Ashleigh Gentle, double Olympic champion Alistair Brownlee, reigning Ironman World Champion Lucy Charles-Barclay or winner in T100 Miami Magnus Ditlev are ready to put up a show in the Singapore heat.
Women’s race
Toeing the start line on Saturday will be Miami T100 champion India Lee, who will be looking to pick up where she left off in Florida at the Homestead-Miami Speedway, where she ran down fellow Brit and reigning Ironman World Champion Lucy Charles-Barclay to clinch her maiden T100 win. By her own admission, India had expected “nothing” going into the season opener in Miami other than to “see how her winter had gone, with no pressure”.
It turns out her winter had gone ‘pretty well’ and has catapulted the British star into the PTO World Top Ten for the first time. She will get an immediate chance to put that newfound confidence to the test against a strong field in Singapore that features 7 of the world’s top 20 athletes including #2 Australian Ashleigh Gentle, who’s making her T100 debut after winning the inaugural PTO Asian Open in Singapore in 2023, and #3 Lucy Charles-Barclay, who is putting all of her focus into the T100 Tour in 2024 as well as Chelsea Sodarao of the USA, the 2022 Ironman World Champion.
The full line up for the Singapore T100 can be found here. It features 8 of the 20 contracted T100 athletes and 12 wildcards – including America’s Haley Chura and Estonia’s Kaidi Kivioja who finished a very creditable 7th and 10th respectively in Miami. The wildcard contingent also features the powerful Aussie trio of Ellie Salthouse, Radka Kahlefeldt and Rebecca Clarke – adding to the fresh faces looking for a chance to prove themselves at the sport’s highest level in Singapore’s infamous heat and humidity.
Men’s race
The men’s race features 15 of the world’s top 20 PTO Ranked athletes and will continue many of the battles started in Miami. #2 Magnus Ditlev put in a commanding performance to win the first race of the season in Miami, but it will not be easy for him to repeat the victory after a crash a few days ago in Singapore. The field will also feature American #3 Jason West, who’ll be looking to improve on his seventh place in Florida, and fellow American and the new #5 Sam Long, who’ll be bursting with confidence after biking and running through the field to go from the last swim pack to second on the podium and only 35 seconds down on Ditlev.
Flying Dutchman Youri Keulen gets another T100 wildcard, following his impressive fourth at the Homestead-Miami Speedway, and double Olympic champion from Great Britain Alistair Brownlee – who led for long periods in the Miami heat but ultimately ran out of gas on the run – goes again after having taken heart from his first outing of the season.
The full line up for the Singapore T100 can be found here. It features 16 of the 20 contracted T100 athletes and 4 wildcards.
The women’s Singapore T100 race takes place on Saturday 13 April. The race starts 14:15 (local time). The men’s Singapore T100 race takes place on Sunday 14 April, at 15:15 local time and you can watch both races on TriathlonLIVE (georestrictions might apply)

Oceania Triathlon continental titles on the line in Taupo this weekend
The Oceania Championships will take place in Taupo, New Zealand, this weekend and a star-studded field is due to compete for regional supremacy. The event will be the second of the five standard distance continental championships of 2024 and is shaping up to be incredibly tight.
Men’s raceLast year’s shock winner Bradley Course (AUS) is back to defend his title. Course achieved the remarkable feat of winning the Oceania junior, U23 and senior titles all in the same season in 2023. In doing so, he earned the uncommon right to start at both the Junior World Championships and the U23 World Championships. Now a year older, he will wear the number 1 in Taupo.
Should Course triumph again this season, he will have to do it the hard way. WTCS race winner Matthew Hauser (AUS) will be making his first start of the season and will be a formidable opponent. The fastest swimmer at last year’s WTCS Final in Pontevedra, Hauser will likely press his advantage in the first discipline.
The Australian team will also be represented by Brandon Copeland, Oscar Dart and Luke Bate. Former WTCS gold medallist Jacob Birtwhistle will be another to watch from the Australian team. He took the bronze medal at the Oceania Championships over the sprint distance earlier in the season and is the only male medallist from that event slated to start in Taupo.
As things stand, the second Australian male Olympic slot remains up in the air (Hauser locked in his place in Pontevedra). An eye-catching performance this weekend could therefore set one of those racing on the path to Paris.
From the home New Zealand team, Tayler Reid will have the dual objectives of claiming continental gold and furthering his own Olympic ambitions. He is currently locked in a fight to join Hayden Wilde on the New Zealand Olympic team.
Saxon Morgan and Janus Staufenberg will be two further men to watch from the home team. In addition, Benjamin Airey (NZL) will look to attempt a similar result to Course and add a senior continental medal to his recent bronze from the Oceania Junior Championships.
Women’s raceIn the women’s race, Jaz Hedgeland (AUS) will be the provisional favourite after winning the Oceania title over the sprint distance in March. She will wear number 1 this weekend. Her fellow medallists, Brea Roderick (NZL) and Tara Sosinski (AUS), will also be racing and so she will not have things all her own way. As the Oceania champion from 2021, though, Hedgeland has plenty of pedigree at the event.
Roderick will be joined by World Cup medallist Ainsley Thorpe (NZL) on the home team who will no doubt be a contender for the podium. Meanwhile, Sosinksi will start alongside the experienced Natalie Van Coevorden (AUS). Having made WTCS and World Cup podiums previously, Van Coevorden will fancy her chances of breaking into the medals in Taupo.
Furthermore, Van Coevorden will look to nail a place on the Australian Olympic team after missing out in Tokyo. Neither of the Australian berths have been officially claimed. As a result, the likes of Hedgeland, Van Coevorden, Sosinski and more will treat the Oceania Championships as a valuable chance to showcase their abilities.
A dramatic pair of races could therefore await in Taupo. Stay up to date with all the latest from Oceania across World Triathlon channels this weekend.
