Australian cycling champion Ruby Roseman-Gannon has been gifted her first WorldTour triumph, winning the final stage of the Tour of Britain after a rival threw away the chance of victory by celebrating too early in a bizarre finish. The 25-year-old Melbourne star, who took both the Criterium and road race titles at the national championships, just couldn’t believe it when rival Christine Majerus sat up just before the line at the race finish and raised her arm in triumph believing she had won.
Aussie wins after arrogant act backfires at the finish line. But it was a calamitous miscalculation as Roseman-Gannon stormed through in the wet conditions in stage around Greater Manchester to pip the Dutchwoman to the victory by less than half a wheel. “I still can’t believe I have won that — it’s my first European win and I’m still in shock,” beamed Roseman-Gannon. The Aussie had to check afterwards with her opponents and officials to find out whether she had actually prevailed.
