In June he won the black jersey during the COVID marred 2022 Tour de Suisse.
During the 2022 Tour de France he suffered two defeats in back to back stages; finishing 2nd to his friend Tadej Pogačar, and then the next day to rival Wout van Aert.
On stage 14 he got involved in a breakaway and survived to the final climb outlasting all of the breakaway riders except Alberto Bettiol.

Matthews was able to recover, catch and drop Bettiol, and solo to the line for his first Tour win this decade.
