Samuel Watson (Groupama-FDJ) won the final day of racing with a solo attack on the uphill finish at the Tour de Wallonie, while Matteo Trentin (Tudor Pro Cycling) held on to the orange leader’s jersey in a tight contest against GC runner-up Corbin Strong (Israel-Premier Tech).

Strong led the chasers across the line four seconds behind Watson to earn second place on stage 5, but it was not enough to overhaul Trentin, who finished eighth on the stage. The two finished on the same time, with Trentin taking the GC based on placings on finishing positions earlier in the week.
