The race for world triathlon title glory is reaching boiling point after Friday’s epic races in Weihai, China.

Alex Yee and Lisa Tertsch both notched brilliant victories on a brutal course to put themselves in position to challenge for glory at the Grand Final in Torremolinos-Andalucia next month.

Olympic champion Yee is now in pole position in the men’s standings with a perfect record of three races and three wins so far in 2024, and in with a great chance of claiming a first world title after multiple near misses.

Tertsch meanwhile is snapping at the heels of Olympic champion Cassandre Beaugrand and Beth Potter in the women’s standings after her maiden WTCS win put an exclamation point on a terrific season so far.
