New Zealand’s Hayden Wilde proved he is the undisputed king of the Lion City, delivering a masterclass performance to win the Singapore T100 Triathlon on April 25. In a display of pure dominance, Wilde secured his second consecutive victory in Singapore, becoming a back-to-back winner and setting the largest winning margin in men’s T100 history.

A Historic Performance in the Heat
Wilde crossed the finish line a staggering 6 minutes and 21 seconds ahead of his nearest rival. His back-to-back success mirrors the feat of F1 legend Lewis Hamilton, who recorded consecutive wins at the Singapore Grand Prix in 2018 and 2019. The race was a grueling test of endurance as athletes battled sweltering conditions. Wilde noted that this year felt even more difficult than his previous win due to an earlier start time that kept athletes in the intense heat for a longer duration.
“I just made sure I just raced my race out there today,” said Wilde. “Power was real low today, and obviously run speed was a bit lower. I just tried to keep my numbers and made sure I was just doing my own race up there”.

The Podium Battle
While Wilde was in a league of his own, the battle for the remaining podium spots was fierce:
Second Place: Great Britain’s Sam Dickinson secured a breakout performance, marking his best T100 finish to date.
Third Place: Germany’s Mika Noodt continued his incredible consistency, recording his sixth consecutive T100 podium. Noodt credited his success to a disciplined bike leg where he resisted the urge to “hammer it” early on, saving energy for the run. Australian Matt Hauser also highlighted the difficulty of the field, describing the race as a “big learning curve” and a humbling start to a competitive 2026 season.

A Festival of Multisport
The Singapore T100 was more than just a professional showcase; it was a massive “festival of multisport”. Over 7,000 amateur athletes participated throughout the weekend in various events, including:
The 100km T100 triathlon (2km swim, 80km bike, 18km run).
Olympic and Sprint distance triathlons.
Standard and Long distance duathlons.
The 5km Music Run and a new Youth Aquathlon.

What’s Next for the T100 World Tour?
The “Race to Qatar” continues as the professional athletes move on to the next stops of the nine-race series:
Spain T100 (Women): May 23 in Pamplona-Navarra.
San Francisco T100 (Men): June 6, featuring the iconic dive into San Francisco Bay.

The T100 Triathlon World Tour offers a total athlete compensation pool of $4.2 million USD, rewarding both individual race winners and the overall season champions.
