Ben Healy Leads Tour de France After Stage 10

Ben Healy made history as the first Irish cyclist in 38 years—and only the fourth ever—to wear the Tour de France yellow jersey, after a third-place finish on Stage 10 in the Massif Central. The 24-year-old EF Education-EasyPost rider now leads both the overall and best young rider classifications, having overtaken defending champion Tadej Pogacar by 29 seconds. Simon Yates won the stage with a late attack, while Pogacar, Remco Evenepoel, and Jonas Vingegaard finished further back, unable to close the gap to Healy's breakaway. This achievement comes just days after Healy's Stage 6 victory, marking him as a rising star in the sport. Healy expressed pride in representing Ireland and following in the footsteps of legends like Stephen Roche, Sean Kelly, and Shay Elliott. Irish officials and fans have widely celebrated this milestone as a great day for Irish cycling.
