List of career achievements by Mark Cavendish
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
This is a list of career achievements by Mark Cavendish, a Manx professional racing cyclist for UCI ProTour Team Sky. Originally a track cyclist in the madison, points race, and scratch race, he has also competed on the road since 2006. Cavendish is a noted cycling sprinter, and as such is a prolific winner of individual stages in stage races.
Cavendish is ranked joint 6th on the all-time list of Tour de France stage winners with 20 victories, alongside Nicolas Frantz and joint 11th with Costante Girardengo on the all-time list of Grand Tour stage winners with 30 victories. He equalled Alessandro Petacchi's record of 11 professional wins in a début season in 2007.[1] Cavendish became the second British rider—after Tom Simpson—to win one the five monuments of cycling with victory in the 2009 Milan – San Remo. [2] In 2009 he became first British rider to wear the Maglia Rosa leader's jersey at the Giro d'Italia,[3] passed Barry Hoban's record of 8 for most Tour de France stage wins by a British rider.[4] and Chris Boardman's record of 41 for most professional victories by a British rider. [5] In 2010 Cavendish became the second British rider—after Robert Millar—to win a stage in all three of the Grand Tours with victory at stage 12 of the 2010 Vuelta a España.[6] In 2011 he tied Piet Oellibrandt for the most wins in the Scheldeprijs one day semi-classic, with a third victory at the Antwerp race.[7] At the 2011 Tour de France he became the first British rider to win the Tour de France points classification,[8] the first rider to win the final Champs-Élysées stage in the Tour de France three years in a row and only the second ever rider—after Eddy Merckx's 1969–1971 streak—to win the final stage of Le Tour three times in a row.[9]
