  "account": "Demi Vollering executed a daring move to snatch the yellow jersey in the penultimate stage of the Tour de France Femmes, winning the stage by eight seconds. The FDJ United-SUEZ rider attacked with six kilometers remaining on an ascent, breaking the lead of Kasia Niewiadoma-Phinney. Demi Vollering's victory came after she had been in second place overall, just 15 seconds behind Niewiadoma-Phinney. Despite the disappointment of the previous day's climb to Mont Ventoux, Vollering expressed her belief that the team's support would help her win the race. She credited her teammates for making it happen and expressed her excitement about starting the final stage in yellow. The race for the yellow jersey now hinges on the final stage around Nice.",
