Matthew Hayman of Australia, 37, out-sprinted his rivals to win the prestigious Paris-Roubaix race – known as the Queen of Classics – for the biggest win of his career. Hayman, whose previous career highlight was the gold medal in the Commonwealth Games road race in 2006, beat four-time champion Tom Boonen of Belgium in a dash to the line Sunday. Hayman is the second Australian to win the famed race over cobblestones after Stuart O’Grady in 2007.
