The 2022 Tour began in Denmark, where immense crowds lined the streets to support the tour and their local riders. While the much-anticipated crossing of the Great Belt Bridge turned out to be anticlimactic, a Danish rider did thrill the home fans in Stage 2 by going into the breakaway and taking the polka dot jersey as "king of the mountains". He went on another long breakaway in Stage 3, this time solo, winning all the mountain points again, and ultimately ended up breaking the all-time record for most consecutive mountain summits won when the race returned to France. The fact that the highest altitude covered in these Danish "mountain summits" was only 77 metres above sea level does slightly tarnish the term "king of the mountains," but it doesn't diminish the efforts of this rider. Name him.

Kyler Murray's football teammate at Allen High School (Tex.) has gone on to greener pastures elsewhere. A fearsome linebacker, this individual turned in his pads for a singlet come the winter, becoming a three-time state champion in wrestling. He went on to go 120-3 over four seasons at Penn State, winning three national championships at three different weight classes. His success didn't diminish upon switching to the octagon, as a win over Kyle Daukaus at UFC Freedom 250, pushed his professional MMA record to 9-1.
