Hayden Wilde entered the French Riviera T100 triathlon in Saint-Raphaël and Fréjus as the favorite and current leader of the Race To Qatar standings. Despite recent respiratory issues and the fatigue of competing shortly after the Ironman 70.3 World Championships, Wilde was positioned to defend his title.

Wilde ultimately secured victory in a closely contested race that remained undecided until the final 18 kilometers of running. Belgian athlete Jelle Geens finished second, 19 seconds behind, while New Zealander Kyle Smith took third place, finishing 24 seconds behind the leader. This victory brought Wilde to 96 points in the men’s T100 standings.
