Tour de France 2019: Daryl Impey pips Tiesj Benoot to clinch first win

The Hindu  

Daryl Impey edged a thrilling duel with Tiesj Benoot to claim his first Tour de France victory while Julian Alaphilippe retained his overall lead after stage nine's run from Saint-Etienne to Brioude. No South African had won a tour stage since Robert Hunter in 2007, but Impey joined a 15-man breakaway and then feigned fatigue on the final climb before clinching a dramatic win. Jan Tratnik, Oliver Naesen and Jasper Stuyven followed Impey and Benoot over the line, while Alaphilippe came home in 35th. Impey's smart race management paid off in the final 7 kilometers as he brushed Roche aside before tussling with Benoot in a tense finish.
