Demi Vollering became the second woman to win the Giro d'Italia Women, La Vuelta Femenina, and the Tour de France Femmes avec Zwift after her triumph in Italy on Sunday.
With one day to go at the Giro, it looked like Vollering's dream was over. The Dutchwoman, aiming for her first pink jersey, and the first part of her Giro-Tour goal, remained 49 seconds behind race leader Anna van der Breggen (SD Worx-Protime) heading into the final stage. Her opportunity to turn the race around on the Sestriere stage had been dashed, after snow and ice shortened the day and took out the final climb.
