The Latest: Froome earns Tour best-climber jersey too (The Associated Press)
Chris Froome came away with a little icing on his Tour de France victory cake in Saturday’s 20th stage: The Briton will take home the best-climber’s polka-dot jersey along with the yellow one. In addition to Froome’s mountaineering success earlier in the race, his chase of top rival Nairo Quintana in the final climb to the Alpe d’Huez in the penultimate stage gave him just enough points to swipe the red-and-white King of the Mountains jersey from Romain Bardet. The Tour de France director says the most disappointing part of the race came when Chris Froome dealt a ”knockout blow” to top rivals in the first Pyrenees stage.
