Swift leaves Team Sky for two-year deal with Project TJ Sport

Ben Swift announced that he will leave Team Sky at the end of this season and join Project TJ Sport, the Chinese-registered WorldTour team that has yet to be officially named, through 2018. It's no secret that the British WorldTour team places a higher priority on Grand Tours than sprinting, and so Swift has decided to take his speed to the new project where it will be of greater value.
