Paris Olympics: Tour de France winner Tadej Pogacar will not compete at the Paris Olympics after the Slovenian rider renounced the chance to go for gold due to accumulated tiredness.

The Slovenian agency STA confirmed the news on Monday after Pogacar won his third Tour with a lead of over six minutes over the second place Jonas Vingegaard of Denmark just one day ago, reports Xinhua.

Pogacar won six stages as he dominated the race, with his triumph made more impressive after he also won the Giro de Italia in May.
