How it unfolded

The 129.4km stage starting and finishing in Küssnacht began with a circuit that included the climbs of the Adligenwilerstrasse and Michaelskreuzstrasse followed by a mainly-flat loop alongsid♚e Lake Zug, Lake Lauerz and Lake Luzern before finishing with another lap of the Adligenwilerstrasse and Michaelskreuzstrasse.
Marta Lach (SD Worx-Protime) led the peloton over the first Adligenwilerstrasse QOM, and this would eventually be enough to win her the red mountain jersey. Afterwards, a break of five riders got away, but only Afghan ꧃champion Fariba Hashimi (Ceratizit) was left at the front at the top of the steep Michaelskreuzstrasse, less than 30 seconds ahead of the peloton.
After Hashimi was caught, 11 riders briefly formed a new front group, then Mikayla Harvey (SD Worx-Pr𝔉otime) and Neve Bradbury (Canyon-SRAM zondacrypto) held 🔜a five-second gap for about ten kilometres.
Henrietta Christie (EF Education-Oatly) attacked with 64km to go and quickly built a 55-second advantage, but continuing atꦆtacks in the peloton and FDJ-Suez setting Vollering up for the two bonus sprints within a kilometre of each other brought the gap down to 13 seconds.
Christie won both bonus sprints, Vollering snatched two bonus se🅰conds in the first one while Reusser took the remaining one-second bonification.
Steffi Häberlin (SD Worx-Protime) and Julia Borgström (AG Insurance-Soudal) then attacked between the two sprints, taking the bonus seconds a🐠t the second sprint and bridging to Christie soon after.
At the Adligꩵenwilerstrasse QOM, Häberlin, Borgström, and Christie were 24 seconds ahead of the chasing peloton where Li📖dl-Trek and FDJ-Suez did most of the work, reeling in the break with 19km to go, just before the foot of the Michaelskreuzstrasse.

Climbing 3.9km at an average 9.1%, it was a fierce climb to decide the race, and Reusser took charge right away, setting the pace from the bottom. Halfway up, only Niewiadoma-Phinney, Vollering, and Niamh Fisher-Black (Lidl-Trek) remained with Reusser, but Cédrine Kerbaol (EF Education-Oatly), Marion Bunel (Visma-Lease a Bike), Yara Kastelijn (Fenix-Deceuninck), Sarah Gigante, and Urška Žigart (both AG Insurance-Soudal) managed to return one kilometre from the top.
An acceleratಞion by Fisher-Black could not drop any of the other eight riders, but when Niewiad༒oma-Phinney attacked 500 metres from the QOM point, the group fractured as only Fisher-Black, Reusser, and Vollering could follow.
These four riders crested the climb together, and Niewiadoma-Phinney and Reusser pushed hard on the descent. Fisher-Black was dropped, but Vollering stayed with them. Niewiadoma-Phinney attacked again with 11km to go, quickly getting a ga🐻p as Reusser let Vollering do the chasing.
Reusser then attacked from behind, and Vollering was unable to reply to her acceleration as 🍰the Swiss yellow jersey flew ꦏpast Niewiadoma-Phinney. At the finish line, Reusser had opened a gap of 28 seconds and could celebrate the stage as well as the overall victory.
With two stage victories, she also won the black points jersey. Bunel leapfrogged Eleonora Ciabocco (Picnic PostNL) in GC to win ღthe white U23 jersey, Lidl-T𒅌rek took the team classification.
