As Tour de France Femmes sensation Maëva Squiban soloed to her second stage victory in as many days over the Col du Granier and the GC contenders raced to a stalemate, Ruth Edwards scored the best Tour result of her two participations, taking third in Chambéry.
Edwards returned to racing last season, having retired at the end of 2021. She joined Human Powered Health and quickly signed a two-year extension to stay with the US squad.
