2025 World Triathlon Series: Athletes to watch

El calendar of the 2025 Triathlon World Series It is presented as one of the most attractive in recent years.

After a vibrant 2024, with exciting duels and new champions, expectations for this year are high.

Below, we offer you a review of the male and female names that promise to cause a stir this year in terms of the rankings.

From established legends to youngsters demanding a place in the elite, the 2025 season will have everything it takes to keep us glued to the television.

In search of the new great champion

The domain of Cassandre Beaugrand In 2024, she was overwhelming: she won the Olympic and world titles in the same season, a milestone that confirms her as the great reference of today. Her consistency, combined with an impressive ability in running, made her the woman to beat.

The question now is whether he can maintain this form in 2025 or whether, after an almost perfect year, his performance may decline.

In any case, the Frenchwoman has already shown that she knows how to compete at the highest level.

Rivals ready to surprise

Although Beaugrand She is the undisputed queen, the fight to dethrone her is still very open. Lisa Tertsch, the other big winner of the World Series last season, showed that she has the level to make anyone tremble. In fact, the German was the one who managed to beat Beaugrand in a previous event last season, which confirms her enormous potential.

On the other hand, Beth Potter, world champion in 2023 and Olympic bronze medallist, is an experienced athlete who can take on the Frenchwoman. Although she lost to Beaugrand in several events in 2024, she has proven that she can beat her in competition.

Meanwhile Emma lombi continues to grow by leaps and bounds. Two consecutive years on the final podium of the WTCS make it clear that her progress is steady. As of today, she is the only one of the quartet of favourites who has not yet won a WTCS race; therefore, 2025 could be the year in which she debuts her record.

Others like Leonie Periault o Georgia Taylor-Brown They also aspire to the top. Periault already knows what it is like to triumph in top-level races, but he still needs consistency to take the definitive throne.

For Taylor-Brown, who has already been champion on previous occasions, the challenge is to recover her best version after not shining as much in 2024.

A male panorama full of unknowns

Favorites with loaded agendas

The men's category is more unpredictable than ever. Alex Yee, Hayden Wilde y Leo Bergere They have established themselves as great benchmarks thanks to their consistency on the podium over the last two years. However, each of them has decided to explore new challenges in 2025, either by competing in marathons or venturing into different test formats.

This decision leaves the door open for other names who want to win the World Series. If the three favorites do not make enough appearances, their dominance could be cut short, giving way to new leaders in the standings.

Candidates to break the script

In that context, Dorian Coninx He appears to be one of the strongest options to win the title, as long as he puts the injuries that marked his 2024 behind him. The Frenchman already knows what it is like to be proclaimed world champion (2023), and if he recovers his best level, few can stop him.

Matthew Hauser y Basque Vilaca They have also hinted that 2025 could be their year.

Both have won WTCS events in the last two seasons and their confidence is therefore sky-high.

In addition, Csongor Lehmann y Miguel Hidalgo They won their first medals in 2024.

On the Spanish side, the young man David Cantero del Campo, the current U-23 world champion, is another contender to make a splash. His progress makes him a real dark horse who could sneak into the fight for the top spots.
