Resolved: YES

The organiser's official rankings list Lorena Wiebes as points classification winner on 181 points, her second consecutive green jersey.

How this resolves

Resolves YES if letourfemmes.fr lists Lorena Wiebes as winner of the points classification after the final stage; abandonment or disqualification before Nice resolves NO. If that source has not published in time, The Guardian and BBC Sport settle it.

The pattern behind it

0 of 4
In four editions, the opening-stage winner has never won the Tour de France Femmes. The split inside the record matters: when the opener was a flat sprint (2022, 2024), the stage winner dropped out of the GC picture within days; when it was punchy (2023, 2025), the winner was an all-rounder who stayed prominent but still lost the title in the mountains. Lausanne 2026 was punchy, but it was won by the purest sprinter in the field.

No first-stage winner has won the women's Tour since 2022. The Tour de France Femmes has had four editions since it restarted that year. Each opened with a stage winner in yellow, and each time someone else won in the end. What happened to that rider depended on the kind of first stage.
