That is all the title needs to be.
But if the OP goes something else, don't use the word "thread" in the title whatever you do.
How would we know it's a thread if the title doesn't say?
I suggest: "The thread about Magnus Cort is this here thread and not other threads".

Really fulfilling the kind of potential he seemed like he might have but hadn’t really reached.
He has massively improved his climbing since leaving Green Edge, though his sprinting has gone down a touch and his classics riding has not developed - He struggled to get over cat 3 climbs at Green Edge.
Because the directors of that team were complete morons that made him spend crazy amounts of time lifting weights to be better in mass sprints. They wanted him to be a different type of rider.
It was posted at the time of Cort's transfer that he wanted to further develop as a classics rider - Gaining weight for a classics rider is quite common.
Ultimately, Cort left because he received a better contract from Astana.

There has been a lot of talk about Ganna's insane power this season, but being able to do a perfect leadout from a different continent definitely puts Bissegger ahead in my book.
Cort has crashed in Paris-Nice and is out of Milano-Sanremo 2022 due to a broken collar-bone. That's a big disappointment - he had even been ill and missed some races only a few weeks ago.
Does anyone know where on Bornholm Magnus was born? I have distant relatives, and have spent a lot of time, on this beautiful island so I am a bit curious 
Probably Rønne, the main town. That's where the hospital is.
Thanks. I was thinking more in terms of where he grew up, bad wording on my part. He probably grew up in Rønne as well I guess.
Is this it? Is tomorrow gonna be the day he actually spends a significant amount of time in the peloton?
Stage tomorrow theoretically should suit him so heaven knows

He said before the stage today that he probably wasn't gonna go on the attack...
So the last 7 road stages of grand tours he's only not been in the breakaway in one of them. Though maybe if I recall correctly he may have tried to get into it at one point on that Fedaia stage.
At least i got to see a Viking in this Tour edition.
Chapeau!
Chapeau!
If he continues like this he'll end up winnning the jersey. The green that is.
