The inaugural Collins Cup, to be hosted by DATEV Challenge Roth, will move to 2019, and as part of this arrangement, the PTO and DATEV Challenge Roth have agreed to increase the prize purse for DATEV Challenge Roth 2018 to $200,000, the largest purse in Europe.

CEO of DATEV Challenge Roth, Felix Walchshöfer, said: “This year’s race will feature a USD200,000 prize purse, the largest in Europe and more than doubled from 2017. First place male and female will each earn USD40,000.”
The Collins Cup, named after Ironman founders John and Judy, is a three-way non-drafting competition inspired by golf’s Ryder Cup: Europe versus USA versus the ‘Internationals.’ Set off at regular intervals, six men and six women from each region, (eight from the new PTO world rankings plus four captain’s picks – which allows wriggle room to involve stars from the ITU’s World Triathlon Series) will race head-to-head-to-head over a 3km swim, 120km bike course and 25km run.
