In 2025, the introduction of the Schwalbe Women's One-Day Classic in Australia provides women cyclists with an additional opportunity to earn UCI points at the season's start.
Tour Down Under Race Director Stuart O'Grady emphasized that the women's peloton, unlike the men, previously lacked opportunities to earn crucial UCI points, which would enhance competition.
Three-time Tour Down Under champion Amanda Spratt sees the new one-day race as a significant advancement, offering valuable points and potentially paving the way for more women's racing stages in the future.
Scheduled for January 26, 2025, the Schwalbe Women's One-Day Classic, classified as a Pro Series event, will allow female riders to compete alongside their male counterparts.
