contents We prove that for two-marginal optimal transport with Coulomb cost, the optimal map is a $C^{1,α}$ diffeomorphism outside a closed set of Lebesgue measure zero provided the marginals are $α$-Hölder continuous and bounded away from zero and infinity. Excluding a set of measure zero is necessary as optimal maps for the Coulomb cost have long been known to exhibit jump singularities across codimension $1$ surfaces (even for smooth marginals on convex domains).
