Kuss, 29, of Durango, Colorado, is the first American to win one of cycling’s top races since Chris Horner earned the Vuelta victory in 2013.
Sepp Kuss won the Spanish Vuelta on Sunday to become the first American to win one of cycling’s top races since Chris Horner earned the Vuelta victory in 2013. The other Grand Tour events are the Giro d’Italia and the Tour de France.
It was a surprising victory for Kuss, who entered the race in a supporting role to his Jumbo-Visma teammates— the two-time Tour de France winner — and Primoz Roglic, a three-time Vuelta winner.
