Gold Coast, Australia – The Professional Triathletes Organisation (PTO) has announced an extension of its broadcast partnership with Fox Sports Australia, starting with this weekend’s Gold Coast T100 Triathlon [21-22 March].
The new deal, brokered by the PTO’s internal media team, follows the success of last year’s T100 Triathlon World Tour, which saw the 9-stop global series take the world’s best triathletes to iconic locations, starting in Singapore in April, before touching down in San Francisco, Vancouver, London, the French Riviera, Wollongong in Australia, Dubai and then the first ever Qatar T100 Triathlon World Championship Final in Doha.
In 2026, the PTO’s Fox Sports partnership includes a preview show, highlights and live coverage of the Gold Coast T100 on Fox Sports 507 with simultaneous transmission on Kayo Sports, and the rest of the series show live and on demand.
“We’ve been working closely with Fox Sports and Kayo SPORTS over the first two seasons of the T100 Tour to bring live coverage to fans across the country, so it’s great to be able to continue the partnership. It’s also a very strong endorsement of the broadcast product we’re building,“ said Nick Shakinosky, PTO Chief Media Officer.
The 2026 T100 Race To Qatar starts with the world’s top 20 professional women racing on the Gold Coast, including Brisbane-born Ellie Salthouse who is targeting the biggest win of her career on home soil in front of family, friends and Australian fans.
It will then go to Singapore (25-26 April), Spain (23-24 May), San Francisco (6-7 June), Vancouver (15-16 August), French Riviera (19-20 September), Dubai (12-15 November), Saudi Arabia (November TBA) & Qatar (11-12 December).
Australian fans can catch the Gold Coast T100 action live on Fox Sports & Kayo from 2.30pm AEDT, which is 1.30pm AEST on the Gold Coast, on Saturday 21 March.
As well as covering the professional Gold Coast T100 race live, Fox Sports News has also helped to showcase some of the most prominent amateurs who also make up a T100 weekend. Including Australia Olympic boxer Harry Garside, who will be tackling the same 100km distance as the professionals on Sunday 22 March.
There will also be thousands of other amateur athletes of all abilities doing an Olympic distance triathlon as well as a Gold Coast 10km run. For more details, visit: https://t100triathlon.com/gold-coast/participate/
