In 1992 Armstrong turned professional and soon became a dominant force on the European tour. In 1993 he won 10 titles, including his first stage victory in the Tour de France and the title of youngest world road-racing champion ever. During the next two years Armstrong continued to impress with more victories and a world ranking of No 1, but the gruelling nature of the month-long Tour de France proved too much and overall victory in that event eluded him.
