Will the medallists in Tokyo be true to form or are surprises in store?
This is your chance to Predict the Podium, earn points and win amazing prizes.
Make your predictions. The game launches on 12 September – the day before the first athletics final in Tokyo - and runs through to the final day of the programme on 21 September.
As soon as the start list of a final is published, you will be able to select who you think will win the gold, silver and bronze medals. Our computer has calculated the chance each athlete has of winning, based on their past 30 performances. Athletes with a lower chance of winning earn the highest points - so will you take a risk or play it safe?
You will earn points for each athlete that you correctly predict on the podium. Double points will be awarded if you get them in the right order!
The more you play, the more points you can earn to climb the leaderboard and be in with a chance to win prizes including a trip to the World Athletics Ultimate Championship Budapest 2026, tickets to the Ultimate Championship, signed merchandise and World Athletics goodie bags.
Every time you place a prediction on any final, you’ll automatically be entered into a draw to win exclusive World Athletics prizes.
At the end of the competition, a final draw will take place, with the winner receiving tickets to the World Athletics Indoor Championships Kujawy Pomorze 26.
You can Predict the Podium for all events except for the combined events and relays, so check back each day to make your predictions.
Register now and get ready for the thrill of the World Athletics Championships Tokyo 25!
Play opens 12 September 2025.
