11 Olympic Medalists Head To Boston For League Opener & Prize Money Revealed
supertri League begins in Boston on Sunday, August 18, with the winners of 11 Olympic medals in Paris competing for glory across a five-round series and a prize pool focussed on Teams and rewarding emerging talent in the sport.
Paris gold medal winners Cassandre Beaugrand, Alex Yee and Tim Hellwig headline a stacked field as supertri kicks-off its 2024 League with back-to-back US events in Boston and Chicago. The 16 male and 16 female athletes will compete for Teams with Brownlee Racing, Podium Racing, Stars & Stripes Racing and Crown Racing all vying for glory.
supertri has made several enhancements for 2024, including the allocation of prize money. The athletes will compete for a Teams League prize pool of $925,000, with the leading team of four men and four women collecting a cool $375,000.
The Teams prize pool is in addition to the prize money paid to the top five athletes in the Men’s and Women’s Leagues and the winners of the Swim, Bike and Run Leagues.
The new prize money split is designed to further incentivise team racing under new franchise owners, and also to reward not only those at the very top of the sport but also promising young athletes - each team must have an under-23 athlete on their roster - as well as those on the margins.
With a field of Olympic and World Champions signed up to compete, the new split has proven popular as athletes strive for success and to be part of growing the future of triathlon as part of supertri.
Another enhancement will see athletes tackle the same supertri Format across all five rounds of the League. That is three continuous rounds of swim, bike and run with no breaks in the action.
supertri Boston takes place as part of the Boston Triathlon weekend, and will see the Olympic medallists renew their rivalries and seek revenge for results in Paris, as well forge their new team dynamics under superstar managers Tim Don, Non Stanford, Chris McCormack and Parker Spencer.
