PREVIEW | Women's Tour Down Under 2024 stage 1 - Soraya Paladin among favourites for opening sprint of the season

Preview. The Women's Tour Down Under opens up the competition for the Women's World Tour in the 2024 season. In Australia, the riders find three days of racing with good weather and exciting stages.

The first stage of the race takes place from Hahndorf to Campbelltown. It is a stage for the sprinters, most likely. Two categorized climbs, but a few other uncategorized hilltops. A downhill trend to the finish over the final third of the stage, however the final kilometers are flat and the first ochre jersey should be a fast woman.

*** Soraya Paladin
** Ruby Roseman-Gannon, Sofia Bertizzolo
* Gladys Verhulst-Wild, Georgia Baker, Ally Wollaston

Pick: Soraya Paladin
