His Third! TDU24-18
Sam Welsford (Bora-Hansgrohe) wearing the blue sprinter’s jersey claimed his third stage of this year’s Tour Down Under. And he did it on his 28th birthday. Not a bad present to give himself. Most likely, all he has to do is finish the next two stages inside of the time limit, he will be claim the title of best sprinter in the 2024 Tour Down Under. The only one who could upset that plan is the guy who finished second today, Biniam Girmay (Intermache-Wanty). The Eritrean is a much better climber that the average sprinter, so he does have a slim chance of closing the points gap to Welsford in the finals two stages of the Tour.
