CYCLING
Cadel Evans produced a brilliant performance to win a
brutal seventh stage of the Giro d'Italia on Saturday. The Australian
world road race champion dug deepest of all during the 222km trek
from Carrara to Montalcino, a stage which was made even tougher by
driving rain and two sections of strade bianche, white-gravelled
roads which had been turned into mud tracks. |
