Thibau Nys (Lidl-Trek) won stage 3 of the Tour de Suisse with a powerful sprint on the uphill finish in Rüschlikon. The Belgian delivered a well-timed effort on the rise to the line, holding off Stevie Williams (Israel Premier Tech) and Alberto Bettiol (EF Education-EasyPost) to claim victory ahead of a reduced front group.

Bettiol’s third place was enough to put him into the yellow jersey after overnight leader Yves Lampaert (Soudal-QuickStep) was among the many riders distanced when the peloton split up on the punchy finale around Rüschlikon.
