Twintig jaar geleden: Hein Verbruggen stelt de Pro Tour voor

De ProTour was een initiatief van de Nederlander Hein Verbruggen (1941-2017), destijds voorzitter van de UCI (Internationale Wielrenunie) naar het voorbeeld van de Champions League in het voetbal. De plannen met betrekking tot de ProTour werden gepresenteerd op 22 april 2004 in Luik. Het seizoen 2005 ging van start met zestien wedstrijden. Ten opzichte van 2004 waren dat er twaalf minder als gevolg van een conflict tussen de UCI en onder andere de ASO, de organisator van onder andere de Ronde van Frankrijk. Per 2011 zijn de ProTour en de Wereldkalender tezamen opgegaan in de UCI World Tour; de ProTour-status voor ploegen blijft evenwel voortbestaan als “hoogste status” van registratie. Deze registratie omvat voor wielerploegen onder meer het recht en de verplichting om aan alle World Tour-wedstrijden deel te nemen.
