The Slovenian superstar is closing in on Peter Sagan’s legendary record for the most total jerseys won in Tour de France history — a milestone that many once believed would stand untouched for decades.
Peter Sagan famously dominated the green jersey (points classification), winning it seven times — a feat unmatched in modern cycling. But Tadej Pogačar’s dominance across multiple classifications makes him a unique threat to eclipse Sagan’s total jersey count.
Pogačar’s current Tour jersey totals:
- 👕 Yellow (GC Leader): 2
- 🧢 White (Best Young Rider): 4
- 🟣 Polka Dot (King of the Mountains): 1
- ✅ Now contending for a 5th White and a 3rd Yellow in 2025
With his versatility across mountain stages, time trials, and sprints, Pogačar is rewriting the narrative of what one rider can achieve in a single Tour — and across a career.
“Sagan’s green jersey streak was pure sprint dominance. Pogačar is something else — a complete rider redefining Tour greatness,” said former pro Christian Vande Velde on Eurosport.
Veteran commentator Phil Liggett added,
“If Tadej keeps this pace up, we might be watching the greatest all-around Tour rider of all time.”
At just 26 years old, Pogačar is far from finished. His ability to wear multiple jerseys in a single Tour puts him on a trajectory never seen before in cycling history. While Sagan’s legacy is cemented in sprinting dominance, Pogačar may soon stand alone as the most decorated jersey holder of all time — across all classifications.
