Cesare Benedetti (Bora-Hansgrohe) was having a great first day of the Giro, a really great day. As he approached the final climb of the day, just 21 kilometers from the end of the stage, he took a quick glimpse over his shoulder to make sure he would take all three climbs of the day. When riders go on a break, they hope for glory, Benedetti will be pulling on the first King of the Mountains jersey of the 100th Giro d'Italia. Today he enters the record books as one of only five riders to win the first three climbs of any Giro.
