The "White Jersey" is a distinctive garment worn by the leader of the general classification in the Tour de France, a prestigious annual cycling race. This jersey signifies that the cyclist has the fastest cumulative time over the course of the event, making it a symbol of excellence and achievement in the sport. In addition to the Tour de France, the white jersey is also used in other cycling competitions, such as the Giro d'Italia and the Vuelta a España. Each race has its own criteria for awarding the jersey, but it consistently represents the top performer in the overall standings.
