Froome wins Tour de France for third time

Chris Froome crossed the line arm-in-arm with his Sky teammates to confirm his third Tour de France title in four years after Andre Greipel won Sunday's final stage in Paris.

Froome was met just after the finish line by his wife Michelle and son Kellan as the celebrations began in earnest.

The Briton, riding a yellow bike to match his yellow jersey, helmet, gloves and shoes, had been able to enjoy the traditional procession into Paris, sipping champagne and providing his teammates with a round of celebratory beers during the final 113km trip from Chantilly to the Champs Élysées.
