Tadej Pogacar Wins Tour de France Stage 4, Reaches 100 Career Victories

Tadej Pogacar secured a dramatic victory in Stage 4 of the 2025 Tour de France, marking the 100th win of his professional career and moving him level on time with race leader Mathieu van der Poel. The 174.2-kilometer stage from Amiens to Rouen featured several late climbs and culminated in a sprint finish where Pogacar edged out Van der Poel, with Jonas Vingegaard close behind in third. Despite Pogacar's win, Van der Poel retained the yellow jersey due to better overall placings, with both riders tied in overall time, eight seconds ahead of Vingegaard. Pogacar also claimed the polka dot jersey as the top climber through Stage 4, further asserting his dominance in the race. The upcoming Stage 5 is a crucial individual time trial in Caen, which could shake up the standings. The competition remains intense among these top contenders, with American Matteo Jorgenson sitting in fourth place.
