British cyclist, Olympic champion and double Tour de France stage winner
Froome has confirmed retirement after a career defined by four Tour de France titles and Grand Tour success, with a dramatic crash in 2019 and subsequent struggles ending his competitive career following injuries sustained in August 2025. He leaves as one of cycling’s most decorated riders, with seven Grand Tours won.
Marlen Reusser has retained her world time-trial crown in Montreal, finishing ahead of Zoe Backstedt and Franziska Koch. Backstedt challenged on a windy 39.2km course, while Reusser celebrated on her 35th birthday. The men's time trial is later on Sunday.
