Sprint star Dylan Groenewegen won his first stages in road races as a junior in 2011, adding a second at Kuurne-Brussel-Kuurne Juniors and a silver medal in the Dutch junior road race nationals. The next year at the age of 19 he turned professional in 2012 and competed with a local Dutch continental team for three seasons.
It was in 2015 that the Dutchman, born in Amsterdam on June 21, 1993, had a breakthrough win in the Arnhem-Veenendaal Classic and Brussels Cycling Classic with the ProContinental outfit, Roompot - Oranje Peloton.
Groenewegen joined his first WorldTour team in 2016, signing with LottoNL-Jumbo. He scored 11 victories that first year at the top tier, highlights including the Dutch National Road Race title and a stage of the Eneco Tour, his first WorldTour victory, and the points classification title at Tour of Britain.
Having made his debut in the Tour de France in 2016, Groenewegen scored his first Grand Tour stage win the following season on the Champs-Elysées. Among his 13 victories in 2018 were another two Tour stages, as well as a victory at the prestigious spring Classic, Kuurne-Brussels-Kuurne, and his first stage win at Paris-Nice.
