Tour de France Femmes: Marianne Vos delivers masterclass in suffering and grit to secure the green jersey

Marianne Vos in the green jersey at the 2024 Tour de France Femmes avec Zwift.

Marianne Vos (Visma-Lease a bike) went deep at the Tour de France avec Zwift. Real deep. Stages 6 and 7 saw her give a masterclass in suffering and grit as she pursued the green points jersey. The camera showed a rare sight of the 37-year-old at the edge of her limit—teeth clenched, shoulders sagging, willing her bike forward with sheer willpower.

"[The green jersey] is not the first ambition," Vos had told Cycling Weekly at the beginning of the week, seeking stage wins instead. But when the green jersey came within reach, the Dutch veteran went all in, leaving everything on the road.
