André Greipel was one of the big favourites to win today's sprint stage of the Eneco Tour. However, the German never got the chance to sprint as he abandoned the race with a sore throat.
André Greipel abandoned the Eneco Tour today. Last night the German champion got ill. He has a throat infection.
Greipel did start the fourth stage hoping the situation wouldn't get any worse. During the stage it became obvious it was pointless to continue. Together with the team doctor he decided to abandon, with the rest of the season in mind. Greipel's next race will be the Vattenfall Cyclassics.
