The podium with Noemi Rüegg on the third-highest step
Keystone
Noemi Rüegg from Zurich rides to 3rd place in the Milan - Sanremo classic.
The first stage of the women's tour after a 20-year absence, which led over 156 kilometers from Genoa to Sanremo, went to Dutch rider Lorena Wiebes.
Wiebes won the sprint in a group of twelve ahead of her compatriot Marianne Vos and the in-form Rüegg. The latter had won the Tour Down Under in January.
