Jabal Al Akhdhar (Green Mountain), Wednesday, February, 15th 2023

The fifth and last stage of the Tour of Oman 2023, set for the first time up the ascent of Jabal Al Akhdhar (Green Mountain), saw two 23-year-old talents rise to glory in an explosive finale. Mauri Vansevenant (Soudal Quick-Step) was the strongest on the brutal slopes of a 5.7km ascent with an average gradient of 10.5% to take an emotional victory in front of his family, who came to Oman to support him. Matteo Jorgenson (Movistar Team) managed to hang on and save the leader’s red jersey for 1’’. A couple of days after his first professional victory, he is the first American overall winner of the Tour of Oman.
