The sixth edition of the cycling classic Liège-Bastogne-Liège for women was won by Annemiek van Vleuten.
After an impressive solo of about fifteen kilometers, the Dutchman was the first to cross the line.

Pauliena Rooijakkers (Canyon//SRAM Racing) also rode a creditable course. De Venrayse crossed the finish line in the third group and finished eleventh. Earlier this week, Rooijakkers also finished eleventh in the Walloon arrow.
