In 2013, Dorian Coninx won both the Junior European and Junior World Championships and went on to win the U23 World title in 2014. In 2015 he won his first international Elite race at the Quarteira European Cup event later in the year. He qualified for the 2016 Summer Olympics in Rio representing France, and finished 36th.

In 2019 Dorian claimed his first World Triathlon Series win in Bermuda, going on to score another gold in Montreal’s Eliminator format in 2021 following his Olympic bronze with the French Mixed Relay team at Tokyo 2020.

In a dramatic end to the season, Dorian was crowned the 2023 Men’s World Triathlon Champion. By winning the Championship Finals Pontevedra in a tight sprint finish, he leap-frogged FOUR athletes in the rankings (Alex Yee, Hayden Wilde, Vasco Vilaca and Leo Bergere) to claim a superb world title.
