Leeds ace Watson claims the biggest win of his career
Yorkshire Evening Post
|May 01, 2025
Leeds cyclist Sam Watson secured the biggest win of his career and first at World Tour level-just 36 hours after being parachuted in as a late replacement.
The 23-year-old was on his way to a training camp when he got the call from Ineos Grenadiers to redirect to the Tour of Romandie in Switzerland, one of the more prestigious of the warm-up races for the summer's grand tours.
And a day and a half later he was celebrating after winning the short 3.44km sprint prologue on Tuesday that got him into the leader's yellow jersey.
Watson stopped the clock in 4min 33secs and won via a photo finish from Ivo Oliveira.
