Giro director to Froome: Come make ‘history’ in Italy

FILE – In this Saturday, July 22, 2017 file photo, Britain’s Chris Froome, wearing the overall leader’s yellow jersey, crosses the finish line during the twentieth stage of the Tour de France cycling race, an individual time trial over 22.5 kilometers (14 miles) with start and finish in Marseille, France. If Chris Froome enters next year’s Giro d’Italia he’ll have the chance to become the first cyclist to win the Tour de France, Spanish Vuelta and Giro in succession. “He has to have the desire to try and become the first rider to achieve this feat,” Giro director Mauro Vegni says in an interview with The Associated Press.
