Tadej Pogacar wins Tour de France for a record-equalling fifth time

Tadej Pogacar, a Slovenian cyclist with the UAE Team Emirates, won his third consecutive Tour de France title on Sunday, achieving a record-equalling fifth overall victory in the prestigious race. This accomplishment places him among legendary cyclists like Jacques Anquetil, Eddy Merckx, Bernard Hinault, and Miguel Indurain. The final stage was won by Mathieu van der Poel, who narrowly beat Jasper Philipsen in a photo finish. Pogacar's dominance was further highlighted by his five stage wins during the event. His path to victory was eased when his main rival, Jonas Vingegaard, withdrew due to a crash. The race concluded earlier than usual due to security measures related to wildfires near Bordeaux.
