BERN, Switzerland (AP) — Peter Sagan showed off his world champion qualities, timing his sprint perfectly to win the 16th stage of the Tour de France in a photo finish as the race crossed into Switzerland on Monday.
Sagan, a Slovakian with the Tinkoff team, edged Alexander Kristoff of Norway at the line.
Kristoff thought he won and pumped his fist in celebration, only to learn seconds later he hadn't.
"I was lucky I threw my bike," Sagan said. "I was certain I would finish second."
Chris Froome held on to the yellow jersey entering the second and final rest day.
