Ethan Hayter has won the prologue of the Tour of Holland, contested in The Hague over a distance of 4 kilometers. The British rider from Soudal Quick Step completed the course in 4 minutes and 26 seconds, riding at an average speed of 57.5 km/h. A victory by the narrowest of margins: Australian Rogers finished second, 33 hundredths behind, and Swede Söderqvist third, 63 hundredths back.

Tomorrow's first stage will start and finish in Dordrecht, with a distance of 118 km, and everything suggests we will witness a sprinters' festival.
