Belgium’s Jasper Philipsen sprints to photo-finish victory in Stage 4 of Tour of Utah

Philipsen, 20, riding for Hagens Berman Axeon, claimed his first victory in the United States, finishing in 2 hours and 35 seconds. The 68.4-mile course comprised 10 laps around a 6.8-mile downtown circuit for a total elevation gain of 5,500 feet.

McCabe, of the UnitedHealthcare Pro Cycling Team, took second place, a tire-width difference from his third career stage victory in the Tour of Utah. Trek-Segafredo’s Kiel Reijnen, an American who won stages at the event in 2015 and 2016, finished third.

Overall race leader Sepp Kuss (USA) of Team LottoNL-Jumbo finished 10th and retained the yellow jersey.
