MARK CAVENDISH won the final stage of his last Giro d'Italia to spark scenes of huge emotion in Rome as Primoz Roglic confirmed his overall victory.
Cavendish, who announced on the second rest day of this race that this season would be his last, made it look easy as he opened up several bike lengths over Alex Kirsch and Fernando Gaviria even before a crash on the final approach split the bunch.
It was a 17th career Giro stage win for the Manxman, 38, who kept alive his record of winning at least one stage every time he had taken part in the Italian Grand Tour.
