The first stage of the ZLM Tour was won by Olav Kooij. The Dutchman outpaced his opponents on the narrow streets of Kapelle, bringing his season tally to five wins. Kooij will take the lead in the yellow jersey next stage.
“The goal was to win a stage here, That it succeeds at the first chance we couldn't wish for a better start, I'm not at my absolute peak yet, but it's enough to win here. I had a good feeling today and we took the initiative with the team." Kooji said.
For Kooij, it is already his fifth win of the season. After his crash in Hungary, he was out of action for a few weeks. This victory in the ZLM Tour, therefore, does him good. "It's good to get that self-confidence and I'm happy to finish it like this," he concludes.
