(AP Photo/Olivier Matthys)HUY โ Marc Hirschi extended his stellar run in a breakout cycling season to win the Fleche Wallonne one-day classic on Wednesday. In the women's race earlier, world champion Anna van der Breggen won for the sixth straight time. Four days after claiming the world champion's rainbow jersey, Van der Breggen was able to follow an attack from Demi Vollering on the steep climb to the finish. Vollering ran out of gas in the final meters and Van der Breggen overpowered Cecilie Uttrup-Ludwig to prevail in the sprint. It means a lot," said Van der Breggen.
