San Francisco T100 Triathlon World Tour: Start time, preview and how to watch live
The T100 Triathlon World Tour returns to America this weekend for the third round of the series, with the San Francisco T100 welcoming the best athletes in the world to one of the sport’s most iconic locations.
Competing on the same weekend as the famous Escape from Alcatraz Triathlon, athletes will swim to shore from a ferry in San Francisco Bay, bike six laps of a course that passes the famous Golden Gate Bridge and run along the Marina Boulevard.
In our preview of the race below, you can find all the information you need including start times, streaming information and a preview of both professional fields.
Start times and how to watch live
In San Francisco, both races will take place on Saturday June 8, with the professional men kicking things off at 06:00 local time. This corresponds to 09:00 on the East Coast, 14:00 in the UK and 15:00 in Central Europe.
Starting just 45 minutes later, the women will begin at 06:45 local time. This corresponds to 09:45 on the East Coast, 14:45 in the UK and 15:45 in Central Europe.
The broadcast will begin at 05:45 local time. In Europe, the races can be watched on Eurosport or Discovery+. Elsewhere, you can watch the official broadcast here, available outside of Europe via YouTube.
Pro Men
In the men’s race, American home favourite and World #1 Sam Long leads the lineup, with the 28-year-old chasing a third successive podium after successive second-place finishes in Miami and Singapore.
With a podium streak which dates back to September 2023 and spans seven races, Long is the in-form athlete coming into the event, and will hope he can finally clinch a maiden T100 win after finishing on the podium on three separate occasions.
He will face some stiff competition, however, with Miami T100 winner Magnus Ditlev returning from injury, after the Dane sustained a broken wrist during race week at the Singapore T100. The 26-year-old, who sits at PTO World #2, will relish the hard bike in San Francisco.
Other athletes to watch out for include Pieter Heemeryck, Mathis Margirier and Jason West, who have all finished on a PTO podium in the last twelve months. West, who has struggled so far this season, will be particularly eager to kickstart his T100 Tour campaign this weekend.
Wildcards Kyle Smith, Mika Noodt, Menno Koolhaas and Jackson Laundry will also likely feature, with Smith looking to build more momentum on a magnificent win at The Championship in Slovakia last month.
PTO stalwarts Aaron Royle of Australia and American Ben Kanute, who was won the Escape from Alcatraz race four times, will hope that they can impress, and will bank on a strong swim-bike to get away from danger men like Long, West and Ditlev.
Marten Van Riel, a real dark horse, could also have a sizeable impact on the way the race plays out. A terrific swimmer and a fearless biker, the Belgian Olympian is a firm fan favourite and should garner a lot of support out on the course.
Finally, veterans Alistair Brownlee and Javier Gomez, who 12 years ago finished 1-2 at the London Olympic Games, are sure to make an impact on Saturday, given the hard nature of the race that favours both of their strengths.
Brownlee, who has been at the front of both T100 races early on in the run prior to this weekend, will hope to have a complete performance in California and finally get on to the podium. Gomez, who has had a tough year so far, will likely prioritize making it across the finish line.
Pro Women
In what might be the most competitive women’s middle distance field of all-time, eight of the top 10 ranked athletes in the world are racing in San Francisco, led by Australian Ashleigh Gentle, who in April won the Singapore T100.
Widely recognized as the “Queen” of the 100km distance, Gentle has the run pedigree to reel in anyone over 18km, and alongside German Anne Haug and Canadian Tamara Jewett, is one of the fastest runners in the sport
In addition to Haug, Gentle’s main threats will come from Taylor Knibb, the two-time IRONMAN 70.3 World Champion, and India Lee, the Miami T100 winner who recently defended her The Championship title in Slovakia.
Knibb, perhaps more than Gentle, is the favourite for this race, thanks to her unrivalled strength on the bike and phenomenal ability in the water. After cruising to the win at IRONMAN 70.3 Oceanside earlier this season, the Olympic medalist appears to be almost unstoppable over this distance.
Both Haug and Gentle will fancy their chances up against the 26-year-old, but for everyone else, the race could quickly turn into a battle for the minor places. The presence of top athletes like Laura Philipp, Emma Pallant-Browne, Paula Findlay and Kat Matthews means that no position can be taken for granted.
Outside contenders who could be within touching distance of the podium are Denmark’s rising star Laura Madsen, who recently finished second behind Lee at The Championship, and Jewett, the 2023 IRONMAN 70.3 Oceanside champion.
Familiar faces such as 2022 IRONMAN World Champion Chelsea Sodaro, IRONMAN 70.3 World Championship podium finisher Imogen Simmonds, plus Britain’s Lucy Byram, could all have top results here too.
Prize Money and Points
Racing for a total prize purse of $250,000, plus valuable T100 Tour points in SF, there is plenty at stake. On race day, the winners will take home $25,000 and 35 points, with the prize money and points for each position outlined below.

50 Beagles Rescued From Wisconsin Lab Arrive in Bay Area, SF Activist Faces Felony Charges
Animal rescue groups persuaded a Wisconsin breeding lab to sell 1,500 beagles after activists worked for a decade to free them, and 50 of the dogs arrived in the Bay Area Sunday. Meanwhile, an SF activist faces 12 years in prison for rescuing some of them prior to the deal.
Last month, several animal rights activists attempted to free 1,500 beagles at Wisconsin-based Ridglan Farms, the second-largest breeder of beagles for laboratories in the US, as KGO reported last week. Four activists, including Dean Guzman Wyrzykowski of San Francisco, were arrested during the rescue operation and charged with felonies, with up to 12 years in prison, according to a post by Wyrzykowski on social media.
“There are thousands of dogs just like her in laboratories across the country,” says Wyrzykowski, while holding the dog he’s accused of stealing.
Last week, animal rights group Big Dog Ranch Rescue, which is based in Florida, and DC-based Center for a Humane Economy made a confidential agreement with the lab to purchase the animals to be adopted out by rescue groups. Per KGO, well-known Berkeley activist Zoe Rosenberg, who brought one beagle named Chester home with her, was among the volunteers helping the dogs in Wisconsin after they were rescued.
As KGO reports, the Northern California Beagle Rescue Group brought 50 beagles to the Bay Area via school bus Sunday, and they’ll be adopting them out to homes in San Francisco, San Jose, Sacramento, and nearby cities once they’ve received veterinary care.
The dogs had likely never touched grass until after leaving the lab, and they’ve been slowly acclimating to their new lives. Some were reportedly malnourished and most had bad teeth and were in need of dental work.
“It was very emotional,” says Wendy Lansdon, a volunteer with Northern California Beagle Rescue, speaking to KGO about when the bus full of dogs first arrived in the Bay Area. “Some of them were really quiet when we got in there, some of them were happy, and the other ones were terrified.”
Prior to the dogs’ arrival, the Northern California Beagle Rescue Group announced on social media it was seeking foster home volunteers in Fremont, San Jose, and Sacramento — near where the beagles will be receiving veterinary care. The group is also requesting donations to help fund the dogs’ vet care.
According to the site Save the Dogs, activists had been pushing for the closure of Ridglan Farms for almost 10 years, as investigators, whistleblowers, veterinarians, and others worked to spread the word about the inhumane conditions of the lab, which stayed in operation for decades, despite being hit with hundreds of state-level cruelty violations.
“The dogs born there were treated as inventory: bred, confined, sold to research, disposed of,” says Save the Dogs.
Save the Dogs notes that activists are now targeting Marshall BioResources, the largest breeder of dogs for laboratories in the country, which has operations in New York and the United Kingdom.

Division-leading Dodgers aim to snap home losing trend as they open series against the Giants in a matchup of NL West foes
After dropping their second straight home series over the weekend, the Los Angeles Dodgers head into Monday night’s series opener against the San Francisco Giants sitting atop the National League West Division standings, aiming to avenge a series loss to the Giants from two weeks ago. San Francisco has lost nine of its last 12 games overall and have dropped seven in a row on the road as they begin a 10-game road trip that will keep them away from home until Memorial Day Weekend. The Giants will start Trevor McDonald (1-0, 1.29 ERA) in his fourth start in the Majors while the Dodgers will counter with second-year Japanese import Roki Sasaki (1-3, 5.97 ERA) who has given up a home run in five consecutive outings.

Happy Mother’s Day to all the McCoven who hopefully have better things to do than watch this dreadful baseball team. But if this is your chosen way of spending the day, then welcome, and may the Giants beat the Pittsburgh Pirates to win the series for you.
Right-hander Tyler Mahle takes the mound for the Giants, as the veteran makes his eighth start of the year. He’s 1-4 on the season, with a 5.00 ERA, a 4.91 FIP, and 34 strikeouts to 18 walks in 36 innings. He was very strong his last time out, pitching 5.1 shutout innings against the Tampa Bay Rays.
For the Pirates, it’s right-hander Bubba Chandler, a 23-year old in his second season. In seven starts this year, Chandler is 1-4 with a 4.76 ERA, a 5.60 FIP, and 31 strikeouts to 26 walks in 34 innings. Chandler gave up two runs in five innings against the Arizona Diamondbacks in his last game. He has issued the most walks in the Major Leagues, so he’s probably foaming at the mouth to face the Giants, who apparently believe that drawing walks is a sin on par with murder.
Enjoy the game, everyone. Go Giants! Go moms!
