Career
Healy took early career stage wins in both the Tour de l'Avenir and Baby Giro. He came to international prominence in 2023 after a strong spring classics season with results including winning the 2023 GP Industria & Artigianato di Larciano and podium finishes in the Amstel Gold Race,[4] between Tadej Pogačar and Tom Pidcock, and Brabantse Pijl,[5] and a 4th place finish in the Liège–Bastogne–Liège.[6]
Following his successful classics season, Healy made his grand tour debut in the 2023 Giro d'Italia, and on 13 May won his first grand tour stage a week later, winning after a solo break of 50 kilometres on stage 8.[7][8]
The following season, he competed in his first Tour de France, where he was part of the breakaway on multiple stages, finishing fifth on stage 9 and winning the combativity award on stage 14.[9] He next competed in the road race at the Olympic Games, where he placed 10th.
