By winning the Worlds, Paris Roubaix and TOF in one year Tom Boonen got himself in a pretty elite group. No one has ever won those three races in a year, but there are many such combinations when you talk 3 or 4 races. BUT:
Before him only 2 riders ever won Paris Roubaix and the Worlds in hte same year
and
Out of the 5 Monuments and the Worlds (6 races) only 2 riders had won 3 or more in a year.
Oh and this is only for a total of 3 riders because one is the same guy in the same year.
