Reigning Singapore T100 champion and PTO World No. 1 Hayden Wilde headlines a stacked men’s professional field for the Singapore T100 Triathlon scheduled for April 25–26, 2026, featuring one of the deepest lineups in the Professional Triathletes Organisation’s 100km format.

Wilde returns to defend his crown after winning in Singapore on debut last year, a victory that helped launch a dominant run in the T100 series. He now faces a significantly stronger field that includes nearly half of the current PTO World Rankings top 10.

Among the top challengers are World No. 3 Mika Noodt of Germany, No. 8 Mathis Margirier of France, No. 9 Jonas Schomburg of Germany, and No. 10 Youri Keulen of the Netherlands, who previously won in Singapore in 2024.

The lineup also includes returning 2024 runner-up Kyle Smith of New Zealand, British Olympian Sam Dickinson, and Australian world champion Matt Hauser, who will make his T100 debut.

Wilde targets repeat as elite field raises stakes

Wilde enters Singapore as the defending champion and benchmark athlete after his dominant performance last season, but he acknowledged the added challenge posed by depth, competition, and extreme conditions.

Matt Hauser’s debut brings added intrigue as he steps into middle-distance racing after a decorated short-course career, with his only prior attempt at the distance ending in a DNF at IRONMAN 70.3 Geelong due to a mechanical issue.

Hauser said he is eager to test himself against the sport’s best, including Wilde, while Wilde welcomed the arrival of short-course stars into the T100 circuit.

Deep field sets stage for elite Singapore showdown

The 20-man field also features Germany’s Mika Noodt, Jonas Schomburg, and Jannik Schaufler; France’s Mathis Margirier and Dylan Magnien; Netherlands athletes Youri Keulen and Menno Koolhaas; Belgium’s Pieter Heemeryck; South Africa’s Henri Schoeman; and Spain’s Guillem Montiel.

With Olympic champions, short-course specialists, and middle-distance veterans all competing, Singapore is expected to deliver one of the most competitive T100 races yet.

More than 7,000 amateur athletes will also participate across Olympic, Sprint, Standard, and Long duathlons, plus a Youth Aquathlon and 5km Music Run.
