The Tour de France is an iconic cycling race that has been held since 1903. The race is open to all professional cyclists, however, no women have ever been allowed to compete in the race. In recent years, there have been some efforts to open the race to women, but they have not been successful. In 2019, a professional all-female cycling team was formed with the goal of qualifying for the Tour de France, but the team was not able to secure a spot in the race. Ultimately, no women have ever been able to qualify for the Tour de France, due to the lack of support from race organizers and sponsors.
