🚵♀️ #KimLeCourtPienaar made history on Sunday by becoming the first African rider to win the #TourofBritain Women, securing her maiden overall victory in a #UCI Women's WorldTour stage race.
🏆The Mauritian took control of the race with a solo victory on the #GreatOrme on Stage 3 and successfully defended the green jersey over the final two days. She finished the five-stage race 14 seconds ahead of Lorena Wiebes, with Germany's Liane Lippert third overall.
💪Wiebes enjoyed a record-breaking week of her own, sprinting to victory on the final 123.8-kilometre stage in Royal Leamington Spa ahead of Lara Gillespie and Chiara Consonni.
🇳🇱It was the Dutch rider's fourth win in five stages and her 11th career Tour of Britain stage victory, the most by any rider across the men's and women's races.
💪Wiebes' 10-second bonus for winning the final stage also lifted her from third to second in the general classification, while Le Court-Pienaar finished safely in the main bunch to complete a landmark victory for Mauritius and African cycling.
