Puck Pieterse (Fenix-Deceuninck) took her first WorldTour victory on the road by winning stage 4 of the Tour de France Femmes in a sprint from a group of three ahead of yellow jersey Demi Vollering (SD Worx-Protime) and Kasia Niewiadoma (Canyon-SRAM).
The trio had gotten away on the Côte de la Roche-aux-Faucons with Pauliena Rooijakkers (Fenix-Deceuninck), but an attack by Vollering dropped Rooijakkers on the short climb to the Boncelles bonus sprint.
Then 29 seconds later, Kim Le Court finished fourth from a group of 12 riders that also contained GC riders like Évita Muzic (FDJ-Suez), Shirin van Anrooij (Lidl-Trek), Kristen Faulkner (EF-Oatly-Cannondale), Rooijakkers, Juliette Labous (DSM-Firmenich PostNL), and Gaia Realini (Lidl-Trek).
In the GC, Vollering has a 22-second lead on Pieterse with Niewiadoma following at 34 seconds. Pieterse also takes the lead in the U23 and mountain classifications.
