Biography

Matteo Jorgenson is an American road cyclist who rides for Team Visma | Lease a Bike. He was born on 1 July 1999 in Walnut Creek, California, grew up in Boise, Idaho, and credits the Boise Young Rider Development Squad for his start in the sport. He speaks English, French and Spanish and lives in Nice.

He turned professional in 2018 with Jelly Belly–Maxxis and was a stagiaire at AG2R La Mondiale in 2019, the year he won the points classification at the Tour de l’Avenir. From 2020 to 2023 he rode for Movistar Team, finishing 20th in the 2022 Tour de France and winning the overall title at the 2023 Tour of Oman. That year he also placed second at the Tour de Romandie, fourth at E3 Saxo Classic and ninth at the Tour of Flanders, and he was awarded the combativity prize on stage 9 of the Tour de France after a long solo effort that ended fourth at the Puy de Dôme.

He moved to Visma | Lease a Bike in 2024 and won Paris–Nice in his third race for the team, becoming the first American to win it since Floyd Landis in 2006. He soloed to victory at Dwars door Vlaanderen after a crash took Wout van Aert out of the race, finished second at the Critérium du Dauphiné, eight seconds behind Primož Roglič, and was 8th overall at the Tour de France. He won Paris–Nice again in 2025 and finished the Vuelta a España in 10th place while helping Jonas Vingegaard to the overall victory. In 2025 he extended his contract with the team until at least 2029.

His 2026 season produced several podium and top-ten finishes. He finished second at Tirreno–Adriatico, second at La Drôme Classic and eighth at Strade Bianche, and was fourth overall at the Tour Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes. He helped Visma win the opening team time trial of the Tour de France in Barcelona, was third on stage 18 and finished 30th overall. Later in the year he was third at the Tre Valli Varesine and 8th in the world championship road race.
