Ally Wollaston achieved her first win this season for her new team FDJ-Suez at the Surf Coast Classic, dominating a 118km race with a powerful sprint to finish ahead of Chloe Dygert. Despite a prior second place finish at the Santos Tour Down Under, Wollaston's confidence surged during this race, particularly during the climbs. Her victory was clear-cut, while Georgia Baker and Clara Copponi followed closely behind, highlighting a competitive field. This race marks an exciting start to the racing season leading up to the Women's WorldTour events.
I felt really, really strong today, and in the last few races maybe I've struggled mentally... Today, as soon as I started climbing, I knew I had a good shot at the win.
It was a clear cut victory for Wollaston, ahead of Dygert, but the battle for third was tight, with Georgia Baker making it to the podium steps.
