Tdf White Jersey
THE WHITE JERSEY Although the white jersey first appeared in 1968 to reward the leader of the combined classification, which was based on the overall, points and mountains standings, it wasn’t until 1975 that it began to symbolise the future and youth of the Tour de France peloton.

TOUR DE FRANCE: TV, Stream Schedule Stage By Stage Favorites, Predictions
Get ready for three weeks of little sleep, chopper shots of the French countryside and history lessons about châteaus you definitely can't afford.
That's right, it's Tour de France time.
Well, not yet, but soon. It kicks off on August 29. Later than usual, but boy we can't wait.
Here at Sporting News we've got you covered when it comes to all things le Tour.
TOUR DE FRANCE JERSEY MEANINGS
So there's 22 teams made up of eight riders for a total of 176 competitors.
Each team wears a jersey, usually covered in the colours of their sponsors, but some riders will be wearing something a little different.
Here's all the jerseys and what they mean:
YELLOW JERSEY
© Provided by Sporting News Geraint ThomasThe yellow jersey, or maillot jaune, is worn by the rider leading the general classification (GC).
That is, the competitor with the lowest aggregate time prior to the start of that stage.
The man wearing the yellow jersey at the completion of the final stage is considered the winner of the Tour de France.
Fellow Aussies Phil Anderson, Stuart O'Grady, Bradley McGee, Robbie McEwan, Simon Gerrans and Rohan Dennis all wore yellow but never won a Tour.
Belgium's Eddy Merckx holds the record for 96 stages in yellow, he is also one of four men to have won the GC five times, joined by Jacques Anquetil, Bernard Hinault, and Miguel Indurain.
Lance Armstrong won the GC seven times but was stripped of them in 2012. Performance-enhancing drugs and stuff, let's not talk about it.
2019 winner Egan Bernal made history by becoming the first Colombian to win the Tour de France. He shapes as a heavy favourite to go back-to-back in 2020's edition of the race.
POLKA DOT JERSEY

Riders are awarded points for the order they cross the summit of climbs, with more points available on the higher categorised climbs.
The most difficult climbs are labelled hors catégorie or uncategorised, with the first rider over being awarded 20 points.
If a rider is leading both the general and mountain categories, the polka dot jersey will be worn by the rider in second place.
Ten riders have finished the race winning both the GC and King of the Mountains, the most recent being Froome in 2015.
Frenchman Richard Virenque holds the record with seven polka dot jerseys.
No Aussie has ever topped the category.
France's Romain Bardet was King of the Mountains in 2019.
GREEN JERSEY

Points are awarded to riders in the order they cross the line at stage finishes and intermediate sprints, hence the points classification generally being won by 'sprinters'.
'Flat' stage wins have a higher points value than mountainous stages.
The 1st to 15th placegetters earn points, with 50 points being awarded to the winner of a flat stage, while a 'high mountain' stage will be worth 20 points.
On several occasions, the winner of the GC has also topped the points classification, in that case, the rider coming second in the green jersey standings wears it.
In 1969, Merckx finished the race leading the general, mountain and points classifications, the only man to have done so.
Australia has a fairly rich history in the green jersey, topping the points classification on five occasions, the fifth most of any nation.
Slovakian superstar Peter Sagan is the reigning champ and broke Erik Zabel's all-time record of five green jerseys when he claimed the title last year.
WHITE JERSEY
The white jersey, or maillot blanc, is awarded to the best young rider.
Riders under the age of 26 on January 1 in the year following the race are eligible to wear the white jersey.
It is awarded to the rider placed highest in the general classification who fits the age criteria.
Laurent Fignon (1983), Jan Ullrich (1997), Alberto Contador (2007), and Andy Schleck (2010) have won both the GC and the best young rider category in the same year.
In a sign of a changing of the guards, Bernal also claimed the white jersey, with the Colombian still eligible for the jersey until 2024.

OTHER CATEGORIES
MOST COMBATIVE

At the end of the race, the rider judged most aggressive throughout the Tour takes home the Combativity Award, or Le Prix de la combativité .
France's Julian Alaphilippe claimed the honour in 2019, while Merckx holds the record with four.

Tdf White Jersey
The team leading this category wear black numbers on a yellow background, instead of the standard white on black.
It is calculated by combining the times of the three highest-placed riders in the general classification per team.

BUT THAT GUY IS WEARING A DIFFERENT JERSEY?!
RAINBOW JERSEY
The rainbow jersey is worn by the reigning world champions in the road race and individual time trials.
Those riders wear a white jersey with green, yellow, black, red and blue bands around it.
Former world champions will often wear jerseys with rainbow trim on the sleeves and neck.
Mads Pedersen will be wearing the rainbow jersey in 2020 after winning the title in Yorkshire last year.
NATIONAL CHAMPION JERSEYS
Riders from UCI-recognised nations who win their national championships are permitted to wear a jersey bearing the colours of their country for the next year of competition.
Former national champions will often wear jerseys with different coloured trim on the sleeves on neck.
