Demi Vollering won the Women's Tour de France for the second time on Sunday, taking the final stage in Nice to finish 1 minute 18 seconds clear of Polish rider Katarzyna Niewiadoma-Phinney overall. The Dutchwoman attacked on the last climb of the 100 km stage and dropped her rival, who started the day just eight seconds behind. Vollering, the 2023 champion, made amends for 2024 when she lost by four seconds to Niewiadoma-Phinney on the final day. She has now won all three Grand Tours, including two Spanish Vueltas and the Giro d'Italia.
