The first year of the T100 Triathlon World Tour series, the successor to the PTO Tour, was launched on 30 January 2024 and featured 7 events with a points-based system to award the T100 Triathlon World Championship, a title recognised by World Triathlon, the sport's international governing body, as the official world championship for non-drafting long distance triathlon.
The T100 Triathlon series is unique in contracting its athletes to take part, giving long-distance professional triathletes a guaranteed regular income from a race organiser for the first time in the sport's history. This approach was designed to create a 'season-long narrative' that would increase mainstream engagement in professional triathlon.
Amateur T100 events
In addition to the professional T100 tour, amateur triathletes (sometimes referred to as 'age-groupers') can also take part in all T100 Triathlon events with the exception of the San Francisco T100, which is run alongside the famous Escape From Alcatraz Triathlon.
2024 T100 Triathlon World Tour
The 2024 T100 Triathlon World Tour contracted 20 men and women athletes to race in 2024 with more than $7m in athlete compensation.
Of the 20 contracted athletes for 2024, 16 were selected based on their PTO World Rankings with a further four 'Hot Shots' selected based on their pedigree in the sport outside of the PTO World Rankings.
The Hot Shots for 2024 included double-Olympic Champion Alistair Brownlee, Olympic silver medallist Javier Gomez, Olympian Marten Van Riel and 2023 Ironman 70.3 World Champion, Rico Bogen. On the women's side, the Hot Shots were Tokyo Olympic Champion Flora Duffy, Taylor Spivey, Lucy Byram and Amelia Watkinson. Wildcard athletes were also added at each event wherever contacted athletes didn't fill the full field.

2025 T100 Triathlon World Tour
Like in 2024, the 2025 T100 Triathlon World Tour contracted 20 men and women athletes to race in 2024 with more than $8m in athlete compensation.
Of the 20 contracted athletes for 2025, eight were selected based on coming within the top 10 of the T100 Triathlon standings for 2024. All top-10 athletes were offered a contract, however, of the men, Sam Laidlow and Alistair Brownlee (who had retired) turned them down, meanwhile Kat Matthews and Laura Philipp turned them down.
An additional eight athletes were selected via the PTO World Rankings as of 31 December 2024. A further four 'Hot Shots' were also added based on their pedigree in the sport outside of the PTO World Rankings.
The male Hot Shots for 2025 are Olympic silver and bronze medallist Hayden Wilde, Olympic bronze medallist Léo Bergère, double World Triathlon Champion Vincent Luis and double Olympic mixed-relay medallist, Morgan Pearson. For the women, the Hot Shots are Olympians Taylor Spivey, Jessica Learmonth (both mixed-relay Olympic medallists) and Kate Waugh, plus up-and-coming middle-distance triathlete Laura Madsen.
