CLUSES, France: The injuries from a crash-filled opening week at the Tour de France took their toll Sunday when last year's runner-up Primoz Roglic withdrew before the ninth stage.
Rogblic crashed badly during Monday's third stage in the western Brittany region and had been struggling since. The Jumbo-Visma team said the Slovenian rider would focus on new goals.
