Team Sunweb's Coryn Rivera is the new USA road race champion, after a fantastic team effort with team mate Ruth Winder saw the sprint contested by a reduced group in Knoxville.
Coryn said: "This was a race of attrition and patience and the win means the world to me. I had a team mate here which made the biggest difference. At the end of the day this is a team sport and I couldn't have done this on my own. I'm absolutely ecstatic; it's been a long time coming and I'm really happy to take the win now. After all of the hard work that me and Ruth put in through the race it's great that I could finish it off." |
