Emma Norsgaard of Movistar produced a powerful sprint to win Le Samyn des Dames, beating Chiara Consonni (Valcar-Travel & Service) and Vittoria Guazzini (FDJ Nouvelle Aquitaine Futuroscope) to the line in Dour.

The Dane was the pre-race favourite after placing second a year ago, but the race looked to be slipping from her grasp as Shirin van Anrooij (Trek-Segafredo) and Guazzini jumped clear with six kilometres to go and extended their advantage on the final cobbled section on the Rue de Belle Vue.

Cyclingnews is the world's leader in English-language coverage of professional cycling. Started in 1995 by University of Newcastle professor Bill Mitchell, the site was one of the first to provide breaking news and results over the internet in English. The site was purchased by Knapp Communications in 1999, and owner Gerard Knapp built it into the definitive voice of pro cycling. Since then, major publishing house Future PLC has owned the site and expanded it to include top features, news, results, photos and tech reporting. The site continues to be the most comprehensive and authoritative English voice in professional cycling.
