Healy, at 24 years old, has made history by becoming the fourth Irish rider to wear the prestigious Yellow Jersey after a stellar performance that included a victory in Stage 6. Competing on a challenging 165.3-kilometer course, Healy finished third in Stage 10, 31 seconds behind Simon Yates, who secured his third stage win. The overall standings now place Healy 29 seconds ahead of top competitors like Tadej Pogačar and Jonas Vingegaard, completing an impressive rise in this year's Tour.
The 24-year-old becomes just the fourth Irishman to wear the Yellow Jersey after yet another brilliant display, just four days after he won Stage 6.
Healy was nominated the most combative rider of the day after forcing the initiative on the 10th stage, but British rider Simon Yates timed his break perfectly on the final climb to win a stage for the third time.
Three-time Tour champion Tadej Pogačar finished further back alongside main rival Jonas Vingegaard and French rider Lenny Martinez with a gap of 4 minutes, 51 seconds.
Stage 10 took the riders on a tough 165.3-kilometer route in the Massif Central - France's south-central highland region - from Ennezat through seven category two climbs before concluding on the ascent of Puy de Sancy.
