Predicted for 21. July 2026
·
Based on: Statistical Pattern
Stage 16 is the only ITT of TdF 2026 — 26.1 km around Lake Geneva with the Côte de Larringes (9.4 km @ 4.3%) as the key climb. Evenepoel is widely regarded as the best active time trialist (World TT Champion). After Stage 12 he sits GC 3rd (Pogačar leads +3:36 over Vingegaard). Cycling analysts (Velo/Outside Online) rate Evenepoel as clear favourite; Pogačar and Vingegaard can also win TTs, limiting certainty. Bookmaker odds imply ~50–55% for Evenepoel. Neither Stage 16 nor the ITT result is captured in open predictions.

Lucas Herbert and Sam Burns share the lead after Round 2 (July 17, 2026) at -9 under par — both shot a 62 on the same day, equaling the course record at Birkdale. Cameron Young follows at -7, Jackson Suber at -6. With a two-shot lead over Young and a larger gap to the broader field, Herbert is in a strong position for Round 3. Bookmakers imply Herbert as a co-favorite for the overall win. However, Major leaderboards are volatile, and Burns as co-leader plus a potentially charging Young could put Herbert under pressure. No specific prediction market data available for top-3-after-R3.

McIlroy shot 72 (+2) in Round 1 and sits T-114, eight shots off leader Jackson Suber (–5). Projected cut is +1; he must shoot at least 70 in R2. He ranked 155th out of 156 in Strokes Gained: Putting (six bogeys, repeated three-putt errors). Aggregate bookmaker odds imply ~55–60% for a McIlroy cut miss. Without a massive putting turnaround, advancing is unlikely.

England lost the semifinal to Argentina 2-1 and faces France in the third-place match. Kane is England's captain and tournament top scorer. The open prediction 'France beats England' is not contradicted — Kane can score in a match England still loses. A separate open prediction covers Mbappé as scorer (France). Aggregate bookmaker odds imply ~32–35% for Kane as anytime scorer.
