Primoz Roglic became the first Slovenian winner of the Giro d'Italia when he retained the overall lead after Sunday's 21st and final stage in Rome, while Cork's Eddie Dunbar consolidated his seventh place overall.
Primoz Roglic (Jumbo-Visma) was sent a guardian angel to help salvage his Giro d’Italia dream on Saturday – none other than his former ski jumping team-mate, Mitja Meznar. The Slovenian’s dream of winning a maiden Giro looked in disarray when his chain came off on the individual time trial, with the odds already stacked against him as he aimed to overturn a 26-second deficit on Geraint Thomas (Ineos Grenadiers) in the leader’s pink jersey.
Katie-George Dunlevy and Linda Kelly claimed gold in the time trial at the Huntsville Para World Cup in Alabama, adding to the golds they won in rounds one and two of the Para-cycling World Cup.

Ross — the former Head of Physiology at the English Institute of Sport, who specialises in improving sport for women and girls — says more money needs to go into research and also the education of coaches to create «great knowledge and awareness» around the subject. Ad «Research is costly,» she said in conversation on 'The Period Panel' with Eurosport's Orla Chennaoui, England international footballer Jodie Taylor and Team GB track and field athlete Jazmin Sawyers, with the full discussion to be aired on Sunday.
After a barnstorming ITT that saw Primoz Roglic take pink, the Giro d’Italia concludes on the streets of Rome on Sunday. Geraint Thomas (Ineos Grenadiers) entered the ITT with an advantage of 26 seconds on Roglic (Jumbo Visma), but the Welshman had no answers to the power of the Slovenian.
Ineos Grenadiers rider Geraint Thomas was seemingly on course for a first ever Giro d'Italia title but a disappointing performance in the time trial on the penultimate day gave Slovenian Primoz Roglic a likely race-winning lead. In the circumstances, Thomas would have been forgiven for being in a less than genial mood, but the Welshman was able to see the lighter side. Ad Moments after Roglic completed his rapid ascent of Monte Lussari, Thomas gave his wry response.
Geraint Thomas saw the pink jersey snatched away on the penultimate day of the Giro d’Italia as Primoz Roglic overcame a mechanical problem to win a punishing time trial to the summit of Monte Lussari.
Primoz Roglic is poised to win his first Giro d'Italia title after snatching the overall lead from Geraint Thomas with victory in the 18.6km individual time trial on Saturday, with Eddie Dunbar slipping to seventh overall.
