We have done that 117 00:05:14,680 --> 00:05:16,920 Speaker 1: because people respect what has been done in the game 118 00:05:17,000 --> 00:05:18,520 Speaker 1: and where it is at.

In a nailbiting drama that came to 179 00:07:46,160 --> 00:07:49,720 Speaker 1: a head on the twenty one hairpins of the steep climb, 180 00:07:50,400 --> 00:07:53,520 Speaker 1: Cassia fought off all her main rivals during a stage 181 00:07:53,520 --> 00:07:55,920 Speaker 1: in which at one point all seemed lost for her 182 00:07:56,320 --> 00:07:58,920 Speaker 1: as the leaders began the climb to the ski station. 183 00:07:59,160 --> 00:08:01,440 Speaker 1: That just sounds grim, doesn't it. If you're climbing to 184 00:08:01,480 --> 00:08:02,600 Speaker 1: a ski station that. 185 00:08:02,640 --> 00:08:06,600 Speaker 3: Is high up and in summer, it just looks so desolate, 186 00:08:06,680 --> 00:08:08,880 Speaker 3: like it's is that the right word. Yeah, it's just 187 00:08:09,960 --> 00:08:11,800 Speaker 3: nothing is just mountain and pain. 188 00:08:12,320 --> 00:08:14,760 Speaker 1: Mountain and pain. That's pretty much what it looks like. 189 00:08:16,560 --> 00:08:19,040 Speaker 1: So as they began that climb, there were five riders 190 00:08:19,040 --> 00:08:22,840 Speaker 1: in the play for final victory. Cassiot, lacking any teammates, 191 00:08:22,920 --> 00:08:25,320 Speaker 1: was under intense pressure, with the top three on the 192 00:08:25,320 --> 00:08:29,240 Speaker 1: general classification separated by just ten seconds as they closed 193 00:08:29,240 --> 00:08:32,240 Speaker 1: on the finish. In the end, the closest tour in 194 00:08:32,280 --> 00:08:34,600 Speaker 1: its history was played out in the final few meters 195 00:08:34,600 --> 00:08:38,040 Speaker 1: of a nine hundred and fifty kilometer race. As she 196 00:08:38,120 --> 00:08:41,160 Speaker 1: was chasing down Demi Valering. So Demi Valering was out 197 00:08:41,200 --> 00:08:43,360 Speaker 1: in front, and she won the stage. 198 00:08:43,640 --> 00:08:45,120 Speaker 2: Yeah, and she wins the stage. 199 00:08:45,160 --> 00:08:48,240 Speaker 3: And she has to win the stage by a minute 200 00:08:48,280 --> 00:08:50,480 Speaker 3: and I think eight seconds, and. 201 00:08:50,400 --> 00:08:52,160 Speaker 2: She wins it by a minute in four seconds. 202 00:08:52,360 --> 00:08:53,320 Speaker 1: Oh my gosh. 203 00:08:53,320 --> 00:08:56,120 Speaker 3: So she sits down on the floor, obviously completely spent 204 00:08:56,160 --> 00:08:58,360 Speaker 3: because she's riding a bike where people ski. 205 00:09:00,240 --> 00:09:00,600 Speaker 2: Silly. 206 00:09:02,320 --> 00:09:05,400 Speaker 3: So and then waits and the look on her face 207 00:09:05,640 --> 00:09:09,800 Speaker 3: as she sees Cassia across the line with four seconds 208 00:09:09,880 --> 00:09:12,200 Speaker 3: up her sleeve to keep that yellow jersey. 209 00:09:12,840 --> 00:09:15,120 Speaker 2: Oh sport, so cruel, so beautiful. 210 00:09:15,320 --> 00:09:18,640 Speaker 1: Oh goodness me wow, just on that. 211 00:09:18,720 --> 00:09:19,559 Speaker 2: We spoke earlier. 212 00:09:19,840 --> 00:09:22,959 Speaker 3: You know, obviously the Tour de France Fumbs this year 213 00:09:23,040 --> 00:09:26,760 Speaker 3: was I felt, got a lot of publicity and it 214 00:09:26,800 --> 00:09:28,800 Speaker 3: was great. People were really on board. SBS did an 215 00:09:28,840 --> 00:09:31,120 Speaker 3: amazing job with the coverage. They really replicated what they 216 00:09:31,120 --> 00:09:34,040 Speaker 3: did for the men. The issue was they did that 217 00:09:34,040 --> 00:09:37,200 Speaker 3: for the men for twenty one days. I just you know, 218 00:09:37,280 --> 00:09:41,440 Speaker 3: eight days. Yes, it's a it's a great start, but 219 00:09:41,600 --> 00:09:43,640 Speaker 3: we need more. These women need to be I mean, 220 00:09:43,800 --> 00:09:46,040 Speaker 3: we just looked up for Taday Pogaca. He won in 221 00:09:46,120 --> 00:09:48,959 Speaker 3: eighty three hours versus twenty four hours. Eighty three hours 222 00:09:49,000 --> 00:09:52,320 Speaker 3: and forty eight minutes. So yeah, I just think next year, 223 00:09:52,600 --> 00:09:54,520 Speaker 3: let's add some extra days and extra stages on. These 224 00:09:54,520 --> 00:09:56,680 Speaker 3: women deserve it. They're amazing athletes. 225 00:09:56,480 --> 00:09:58,800 Speaker 1: And I love that the research has shown that women 226 00:09:58,800 --> 00:10:02,280 Speaker 1: can actually perform better in these endurance events, that over time, 227 00:10:02,360 --> 00:10:04,920 Speaker 1: as their events get longer, they can potentially be better 228 00:10:04,960 --> 00:10:07,760 Speaker 1: than the men. Like I think that's amazing and challenging. 229 00:10:07,800 --> 00:10:10,160 Speaker 1: This idea that the women couldn't possibly do more than 230 00:10:10,200 --> 00:10:11,120 Speaker 1: eight days of racing. 231 00:10:11,280 --> 00:10:13,559 Speaker 3: And I think I was raging at you, probably by 232 00:10:13,600 --> 00:10:17,080 Speaker 3: a messaging that you weren't responding to, because that's. 233 00:10:16,920 --> 00:10:19,920 Speaker 1: Sometimes I get loads of messages on all different platforms. 234 00:10:19,960 --> 00:10:21,719 Speaker 3: We're just used to it when I start raiging about something. 235 00:10:21,800 --> 00:10:24,760 Speaker 3: But I was raging about the one time trial that 236 00:10:24,800 --> 00:10:28,200 Speaker 3: was included. So the men actually often do two time trials. 237 00:10:28,240 --> 00:10:30,240 Speaker 3: Actually finished the Tour France to year the time trial 238 00:10:30,240 --> 00:10:34,600 Speaker 3: in Nice, but the women's time trial went for eight minutes. 239 00:10:35,240 --> 00:10:39,040 Speaker 3: It was it was literally ten kilometers. So Grace Brown 240 00:10:39,080 --> 00:10:41,400 Speaker 3: has come off the back of winning a thirty something 241 00:10:41,440 --> 00:10:45,559 Speaker 3: kilometer time trial at the Olympics, finishing only two minutes 242 00:10:45,600 --> 00:10:48,480 Speaker 3: behind remko Evanpool, who won the gold in the men's 243 00:10:48,679 --> 00:10:51,840 Speaker 3: time trial exactly the same course. Two minutes wow, right, 244 00:10:52,240 --> 00:10:53,760 Speaker 3: and they go to the Tour de France and it's 245 00:10:53,760 --> 00:10:56,400 Speaker 3: literally a ten time trial. I can ride ten k's 246 00:10:56,480 --> 00:10:58,800 Speaker 3: probably not that fast, but I can definitely do it. 247 00:11:00,280 --> 00:11:02,680 Speaker 1: Bess, I do a triathon soon. 248 00:11:02,760 --> 00:11:05,320 Speaker 2: On the side, I take that back. 249 00:11:05,679 --> 00:11:10,600 Speaker 3: That's a rant that I riscinned, But I think I 250 00:11:10,679 --> 00:11:13,760 Speaker 3: just think, yeah, I think what they've got now is 251 00:11:14,000 --> 00:11:17,480 Speaker 3: let's call it nice, but even better if like these girls, 252 00:11:17,720 --> 00:11:20,680 Speaker 3: these athletes can absolutely do more. 253 00:11:20,840 --> 00:11:24,959 Speaker 1: Even better if I like it me, I feel like. 254 00:11:24,880 --> 00:11:27,640 Speaker 2: I took over your story there. Sorry in some goal use. 255 00:11:27,920 --> 00:11:32,320 Speaker 3: America's Lauren Coglin has won her second LPGA tournament within 256 00:11:32,559 --> 00:11:35,120 Speaker 3: the month, finishing four shots clear of the field. She 257 00:11:35,160 --> 00:11:37,600 Speaker 3: claimed the victory with a stunning back nine and included 258 00:11:37,640 --> 00:11:40,680 Speaker 3: three birdies and saw her single part her last seven greens. 259 00:11:40,720 --> 00:11:42,480 Speaker 2: That is some clutch putting. 260 00:11:43,120 --> 00:11:46,480 Speaker 3: Having won her first LPGA tournament in Canada on her 261 00:11:46,520 --> 00:11:48,640 Speaker 3: one hundred and third attempt in July. 262 00:11:48,960 --> 00:11:51,400 Speaker 1: How good is that one hundred and three of the 263 00:11:51,440 --> 00:11:52,600 Speaker 1: same one hundred and three. 264 00:11:52,480 --> 00:11:58,079 Speaker 3: Events, No LPGA event, one hundred and three tournaments. 265 00:11:58,320 --> 00:11:59,240 Speaker 2: You finally cracked it. 266 00:12:00,559 --> 00:12:02,720 Speaker 3: She only had to wait until her second tournament back 267 00:12:02,760 --> 00:12:05,160 Speaker 3: to double her tally. Hoglin was the only player in 268 00:12:05,160 --> 00:12:07,439 Speaker 3: the field that included five of the world's top ten 269 00:12:07,480 --> 00:12:10,920 Speaker 3: to shoot all four rounds in the sixties. Meanwhile, Australia's 270 00:12:11,040 --> 00:12:15,520 Speaker 3: Gabriella Ruffles finished tied for six. Laura Goglin told me 271 00:12:15,600 --> 00:12:18,400 Speaker 3: that if you would have told me let alone beginning 272 00:12:18,400 --> 00:12:20,439 Speaker 3: of this year, but beginning of last year, I wouldn't 273 00:12:20,440 --> 00:12:22,200 Speaker 3: believe this is what I've done, and it's incredible. 274 00:12:22,240 --> 00:12:24,040 Speaker 2: It's just how hard I've worked to get here, and 275 00:12:24,080 --> 00:12:24,679 Speaker 2: it's amazing. 276 00:12:25,320 --> 00:12:28,320 Speaker 3: I just also think that golf is one of those 277 00:12:28,320 --> 00:12:30,360 Speaker 3: things that once you start, it's a bit like tennis. 278 00:12:30,400 --> 00:12:33,400 Speaker 3: Like once you start, you're in form, you're seeing it, 279 00:12:33,480 --> 00:12:35,720 Speaker 3: you're feeling good, get on a roll real easy. 280 00:12:37,800 --> 00:12:42,560 Speaker 1: In tennis, thank you for the same way.
