Cycling Weekly profiles the spinters competing for the Tour de France top points scorer's green jersey.

 
Factfile
Country  Estonia 
Team  Ag2r 
Age  32 
Stage wins  2: Challans, 1999;
Strasbourg, 2001 
 

Three years ago, Kirsipuu took the yellow jersey early on and wore it for a full week before Armstrong took over.

Another stage win last July in Strasbourg naturally made him the center of Ag2r’s hopes for this summer, but a series of injuries have left the burly Estonian doubtful of his chances.
