The Tour de France Femmes: Vollering's 2026 win and every edition since 2022.

The modern Tour de France Femmes began in 2022. Its 2026 edition ran from 1 to 9 August, from Lausanne to Nice, and is finished: Demi Vollering won it for the second time. The sources disagree on one gap in the 2026 top five, and we give both versions.

The race's organiser publishes on letour.fr, which refused our research requests, so no result here was read on an organiser page. The 2026 results come from Domestique's final classifications and from Wikipedia (secondary); every result from 2022 to 2025 comes from Wikipedia. The race name carries "avec Zwift" for its sponsor.

Status on 22 October 2026

The 2026 Tour de France Femmes is finished. It ran from 1 to 9 August 2026 over nine stages, from Lausanne, Switzerland, to the Promenade des Anglais in Nice (Wikipedia, secondary).

2026: Vollering's second title

Demi Vollering (Netherlands, FDJ United-Suez) won in 30h 54' 51", her second title after 2023, with three stage wins, the last of them a solo win on the final stage in Nice on 9 August 2026 (Domestique; Wikipedia).

The lead changed hands on the way, as Domestique describes it. Marlen Reusser took the yellow jersey by winning the stage 4 time trial; Katarzyna Niewiadoma-Phinney took it on Mont Ventoux; and Vollering took it back the next day on the stage above Nice.

4Antonia Niedermaier (Germany)Canyon//SRAM5' 10" (Wikipedia)
5Paula Blasi (Spain)UAE Team L'Imad6' 13" (Wikipedia)

The team names in this table are as Wikipedia lists them; Domestique's report does not name the teams.

The sources disagree on Longo Borghini's gap. Domestique, and a search summary of Cycling Up To Date, put her 4' 29" behind Vollering; Wikipedia gives 4' 19". Domestique also says Niedermaier finished 41 seconds off the podium, which fits Domestique's 4' 29" and Wikipedia's 5' 10" for Niedermaier. We have not been able to settle which third-place gap is right.

Riders who left the race

Wikipedia records that the defending champion, Pauline Ferrand-Prevot, abandoned before stage 8 through illness, and that Anna van der Breggen abandoned before stage 7. We found no other source for these.

Vollering's 2026 season

The Tour was one of six UCI Women's WorldTour wins for Vollering in 2026, the most of any rider, per Wikipedia's season page. She also won the 2026 Giro d'Italia Women, which the organiser says completed her set of wins in all three women's Grand Tours, and the elite road race at the 2026 World Championships in Montreal. Those results are on Giro d'Italia Women and Road World Championships.

Where to watch

No organiser list of broadcasters for the Tour de France Femmes could be read, because letour.fr and aso.fr refused our requests. We therefore name none; see watching cycling for the lists we could read.
