The 2017 Ovo Energy Women's Tour[2] was the fourth staging of The Women's Tour, a women's cycling stage race held in the United Kingdom. It ran from 7 to 11 June 2017,[3] as part of the 2017 UCI Women's World Tour.
The race was won by Polish rider Katarzyna Niewiadoma, riding for the WM3 Pro Cycling team,[1][4] who as a result, took the lead of the overall Women's World Tour standings. Niewiadoma held the race lead for the duration of the race, after winning the opening stage in Kettering following a solo break of nearly 50 kilometres (31 miles), ultimately winning the race overall by 78 seconds from Luxembourg's Christine Majerus (Boels–Dolmans),[1] who won the points and sprints jerseys after consistent finishing. The podium was completed by Canyon–SRAM's Hannah Barnes.[1]
Barnes moved onto the podium at the expense of Canada's Leah Kirchmann (Team Sunweb), after gaining twelve bonus seconds throughout the final stage; she also won the British rider classification as a result of this, having swapped the lead back-and-forth with sister Alice Barnes (Drops) throughout the race. In the other classifications, Audrey Cordon of Wiggle High5 held the lead of the mountains classification for the duration of the race, while Lucinda Brand (Team Sunweb) was deemed the most combative rider of the race while Team Sunweb were the winners of the teams classification.
