Tadej Pogačar's Playful Pool Break During Tour de France Rest Day

Tadej Pogačar Finds Playful Respite on Tour de France Rest Day As the demanding stages of the Tour de France continue, Slovenian cycling star Tadej Pogačar was captured enjoying a moment of levity during a recent rest day. A video shared by TNT Sports, originally from Pogačar's Instagram, shows the athlete unwinding in a swimming pool. Pogačar was seen relaxing on a distinctive pink flamingo inflatable when a teammate or companion, dressed in a cycling jersey, playfully cannonballed into the pool, creating a splash that momentarily disrupted Pogačar's calm. The companion later exited the pool and performed an impressive backflip, re-entering the water to continue the lighthearted session. The brief glimpse into Pogačar's downtime offers fans a look at the lighter side of professional cycling, highlighting the importance of rest and relaxation amidst the intense competition of the Tour. The informal nature of the video provides a contrast to the rigorous racing, showcasing the athletes' personalities off the bike.
