Hauser wears the one as 2025 Series hits stop two at WTCS Yokohama

The second stop of the 2025 World Triathlon Championship Series sees the action head back to the familiar surrounds of Yokohama's Olympic-distance challenge on Saturday, site of both crash chaos pain and Olympic qualification joy just 12 months ago.

Current Series number one Hayden Wilde is out after a bike crash of his own in Tokyo derailed an impressive start to his season, marathon man Alex Yee continues his blue carpet detour, and the door now sits open for those who pushed that duo so hard in 2024 to take charge of the world title race. 

It's a 1.5km harbour swim in two laps, a 9-lap 40km bike and 4-lap 10km run that awaits, along with 1,000 Series ranking points to the winner. The top 3 scores plus those earned at the Championship Finals Wollongong will count towards the final tally, and with eight stops in 2025, there will be plenty eyeing the big prize.

Watch the men’s race on TriathlonLive.tv from 1pm local time on Saturday 17 May.
