The 35-year-old’s ambitions of reaching a fifth Olympics once seemed fanciful as she spent more than a year recovering after being diagnosed with long Covid in early 2022. “I’d get really tired from just going out and mowing the lawn or going for a walk,” she told Reuters in an interview. Jones speaks to the media at Vector Wero Whitewater Park in Auckland, New Zealand this week. Long Covid provided multiple reminders of how quickly things can unravel. “But I guess you just don’t know where you can get (Covid) from or when it’s going to hit.

SAINT GERVAIS, France, July 16 (Reuters) - Jonas Vingegaard and Tadej Pogacar have made such a huge impression in the Tour de France that, in a sport that was marred by doping scandals, doubts about their performances have arisen but Denmark's defending champion welcomes the scepticism. On Sunday, Pogacar and Vingegaard clocked 18:27 on the final climb, beating four-time Tour winner Chris Froome's record by 42 seconds. "So yes, I fully understand the questions we're getting about it (our performances)," said Vingegaard. In 2006, Floyd Landis became the first Tour winner to fail a drugs test during the race after testing positive for the male sex hormone testosterone. The Kazakh’s Astana team left the Tour and sacked Vinokourov, who denied any wrongdoing, and Tour leader Michael Rasmussen was then fired by his Rabobank team during the race for lying about his whereabouts in training.

The 38-year-old Froome said in a recent interview that competing at this year's Tour was his "ultimate goal" after his hopes at last year's race were derailed by a positive COVID-19 test. "It was a tough decision to select our Tour de France team this year but we feel we selected eight riders best suited to fulfilling our performance objectives," said IPT General Manager Kjell Carlstrom. Froome told Global Cycling Network that he was disappointed with the decision. "I respect the team's decision and will take some time before refocusing on objectives later in the season and returning to the Tour de France in 2024."

Câștigătorul ediției din 2012 a cursei, Bradley Wiggins, a declarat că nu simte compasiune pentru fanul implicat. „Aceste lucruri fac parte integrantă din spectacolul Turului Franței”, a declarat el la Eurosport, adăugând că astfel de incidente se petrec frecvent, sunt spontane și nu pot fi prevenite. A fost unul dintre cele două accidente majore din timpul etapei. Al doilea a avut loc cu 8 kilometri înainte de final, printre cei implicați fiind cvadruplul campion Chris Froome și mulți alții. Julian Alaphilippe a atacat surprinzător pe ultimii metri și a câștigat prima etapă a cursei, preluând astfel tricoul galben.
