Phil Liggett

He currently commentates on the Tour de France and bike races for ITV and NBC Sports, and was previously associated with Australia's SBS.

[citation needed] Liggett has reported on 17 Olympic Games and 52 Tours de France, generally alongside fellow veteran cycling commentators and former cyclists Paul Sherwen (UK) and Bob Roll (US).

His involvement with organising cycle racing events led to his becoming vice-president of the Association Internationale Organisateurs des Courses Cycliste.

[9] Liggett was a long-time supporter of Lance Armstrong and was a regular speaker at "Livestrong" functions along with his Tour De France co-presenter Paul Sherwen.

[13] This provoked an angry response from USADA, who dismissed his claims,[14] and a comprehensive, point-by-point rebuttal by Michael Ashenden, PhD, a leading doping expert.
