The PTO have announced their wildcard picks for the San Francisco T100, the third stop of the T100 Triathlon World Tour, which takes place next month in California.

Following on from the first two fixtures of the season in Miami and Singapore, San Francisco will mark the second race of three Stateside.

Laundry looks to make mark on debut

Jackson Laundry, who over the course of his career has made quite a name for himself racing in California, mainly at IRONMAN 70.3 Oceanside, gets his first T100 Tour start in San Francisco next month.

Unfortunately, Real Tri Squad teammate Marc Dubrick, who won the Escape from Alcatraz triathlon last year in SF, misses out, but will no doubt be cheering his fellow squad member on race day.

Kiwi Kyle Smith gets another wildcard call up after racing last month in Singapore, where he finished in fifth, just ahead of German Mika Noodt, who also gets the nod for San Francisco.

Finally, rounding out the quartet of wildcards, Menno Koolhaas from the Netherlands returns to a T100 start line after a strong showing in Miami earlier this season, where the PTO World #11 secured sixth.
