World Triathlon Championship Series Montreal to be replaced by WTCS Weihai on 2024 Series calendar
Following extensive consultation between World Triathlon, the Local Organising Committee and Triathlon Canada, World Triathlon regretfully announces the cancellation of the 2024 World Triathlon Championship Series and Mixed Relay Series Montreal events, originally scheduled for 14-15 September.
The event has been a regular fixture of the Championship Series since 2017 and will be sadly missed in 2024. The World Triathlon Para Series Montreal on 29 June is not affected by the cancellation, and will go ahead as planned.
As a result of the decision, the World Triathlon Cup Wehai, scheduled for 27 September, has been upgraded to a WTCS event and will now form the fifth stop of the 2024 Series. World Triathlon would like to thank the China Triathlon Sports Association for stepping up as hosts and for ensuring the same number of events can be maintained in the 2024 Series.
With the last minute cancellation of WTCS Abu Dhabi in March, 2024 World Triathlon Championship Series ranking points will be awarded at the four Series events of WTCS Yokohama, WTCS Cagliari, WTCS Hamburg and WTCS Weihai, at the Continental Championships, plus the Paris 2024 Olympic Games and the Championship Finals Torremolinos-Andalucia. The athletes with the most points achieved at three of those six potential events plus the Championship Finals will become our 2024 World Triathlon Champions.
