Tyler Hamilton is a former American professional cyclist who had stints on U.S. Postal, Team CSC and Phonak during his career. Tyler rode with Lance Armstrong while at U.S. Postal and helped Lance win 3 Tours de France. Hamilton would achieve some stellar results himself winning Liege Bastogne Liege in 2003 and the Olympic Time Trail in 2004. His best results in a Grand Tour were 4th overall in the 2003 Tour de France and 2nd overall in the 2002 Giro d' Italia. Hamilton has since been stripped of some of his results as a consequence of his admission to using performance enhancing drugs during his career.
