Filippo Ganna loses Tour of Austria prologue... To Michael Rogers' 19-year old nephew!

Tuesday, 02 July 2024 at 15:12

The Tour of Austria began this Tuesday and will be one of the races tackled simultaneous to the Tour de France. A few riders use it to prepare for the Olympic Games including Filippo Ganna; but in a three-week prologue he was beaten by Lidl-Trek's under-23 team rider Cameron Rogers - the nephew of former World Champion Michael Rogers.

This was a massive surprise for INEOS Grenadiers, where Michael Rogers rode in the 2011 and 2012 seasons - before retiring in 2016. Cameron Rogers is only 19 years old and took his first pro win today in St. Pölten, beating Ganna by 1 second. Tomas Kopecky of TDT-Unibet was also 1 second off the winning time, finishing third.
