STRENGTH. ENDURANCE. PERFORMANCE.

World Triathlon have released the start list for the Singapore T100, with 17 of the 20 contracted athletes set to make the trip out to South East Asia next month.

Alistair Brownlee, who led for much of the way at the first race of the season in Miami before finishing fifth, is set to race again and will chase a first ever win on the T100 Tour.

Denmark’s Magnus Ditlev, who won in Miami, leads a star studded field that will also feature three high quality wildcards in a race that is bound to be an absolute thriller.

Titans clash again

With two-time Olympic gold medalist Brownlee and PTO World #2 Ditlev putting on such a show in Miami, it will be a pleasure to watch the pair go head-to-head again next month in Singapore.

Joined by a strong contingent of athletes, the pair will undoubtedly have their work cut out, with top pros like Australian Max Neumann, who hasn’t raced since the PTO Tour European Open in Ibiza which he won, set to start.

Other big names include Javier Gomez, the multiple time world champion who was a last minute withdrawal from Miami, plus Sam Long, who stunned the field with a brilliant bike-run to take second place behind Ditlev in Miami.

Can Keulen continue to impress?

Of the athletes who received a wildcard to race in Miami, only Dutchman Youri Keulen returns, with the rising star looking to back up his fourth place in Florida with another top performance.

Joining Keulen as wildcards in Singapore are German Mika Noodt, who last year finished 12th at the PTO Tour Asian Open, plus Kiwi Kyle Smith, who is racing off the back of a big win at Challenge Wanaka.

Keulen, who just missed out on a permanent contract at the start of the year, looked like an athlete well worthy of a spot in Miami and will surely continue to press his claim, with a podium having to be the next objective for the 25-year-old.
