Career Overview

Tadej Pogačar has established himself as one of cycling's most dominant all-around racers. The Slovenian prodigy burst onto the scene with his 2020 Tour de France victory at just 21 years old, followed by another yellow jersey in 2021. After focusing on the Giro d'Italia in 2024, Pogačar won a stunning third Tour de France title while also claiming the World Championship road race and multiple monument victories in a single season.

Known for his exceptional climbing ability, time trial prowess, and tactical acumen, Pogačar is attempting the historic Giro d'Italia-Tour de France double in 2026. His combination of explosive power and endurance makes him equally dangerous in one-day classics and three-week Grand Tours.
