Australia has named its team for the home UCI Gravel World Championships in Nannup, and it's built on depth, not star wattage. Nicole Frain, Tiffany Cromwell and Freddy Ovett anchor it, but the roster is filled out by former national champions O'Brien, Sens and Harris.

Mark O'Brien won his first elite Australian gravel title in 2025 — 22 years after his last national jersey, an U17 win back in 2003. Connor Sens (2023) and Holly Harris (2022) add more title history to a lineup that reads less like a star pick and more like a full bench of champions. On home gravel in October, that kind of depth matters as much as any single result.
