Magnus Sheffield, a former skier turned cyclist from Pittsford, New York, quickly distinguished himself in local and national competitions, leading to a seamless transition into the elite ranks. Sheffield demonstrated his talents early, riding to a podium at the Junior World Championships Road Race in 2019. He has since become one of the best Americans in the World Tour, especially after signing with Ineos Grenadiers in 2022. Sheffield took three wins in his first year as a pro, including a marquee one-day victory at De Brabantse Pijl, and continued to clock more World Tour podiums in the time trials.
