Kate Waugh versus Taylor Knibb. Marten Van Riel versus Rico Bogen versus Kyle Smith. Laura Philipp versus Kat Matthews. Lucy Charles-Barclay versus Chelsea Sodaro. Lionel Sanders versus Sam Long. Cassandre Beaugrand versus the clock. Matt Hauser versus Vasco Vilaca.

This week, we remember Jay Luke and Matías Opitz, two much-loved members of the triathlon community. We also unpack the viral Laidlow versus Yee headline, which turned out to be their younger brothers racing each other at the Outlaw Half.

We preview this weekend's T100 San Francisco, break down the key storylines heading into Ironman Hamburg and Eagleman 70.3, and take a look at who's returning and who might dominate at WTCS Alghero.
