Having finished 39th overall at both the Tour de Romandie and Criterium du Dauphine, Jack Haig's recent results weren't exactly eye catching but suggested the first year neo-pro was starting to find his rhythm in the WorldTour ranks. The 22-year-old Orica-GreenEdge rider started his year with fifth place at the Jayco Herald Sun Tour, a race by Team Sky's Chris Froome, and has now recorded his first podium result with second at the Tour de Slovénie.
