May 26, 2018 (Cervinia, ITA) – Canada’s Michael Woods (EF Education First-Drapac p/b Cannondale) is back in the top 20 following Stage 20 from Susa to the summit in Cervinia, 214km, where he finished 22nd behind winner Mikel Nieve (Esp) Mitchelton-Scott and is now 20th overall.

Chris Froome (Gbr) Team Sky finished 7th on the stage to all but clinch his first Giro title with only one stage remaining as Tom Dumoulin (Ned) Team Sunweb in second on the GC is 46 seconds behind. Miguel Angel Lopez (Col) Astana Pro Team took over third as Thibaut Pinot (Fra) Groupama-FDJ cracked as well finishing 88th at 43 min behind.

Dumoulin was unable to challenge the maglia rosa on the final mountain stage as Froome is destined to become only the third rider to claim all three Grand Tour titles at the same time. Eddy Merckx and Bernard Hinault are the legends he will join barring any unforseen problems on the tomorrow’s final stage.
