Italian rider Diego Ulissi won a three-way sprint to take his second victory in this year's Giro d'Italia on Wednesday as Bob Jungels held onto the overall leader's pink jersey after the 11th stage. Launching a late attack to catch the leaders, Ulissi then edged Andrey Amador and Jungels at the line in a stage that also saw overall favorites Vincenzo Nibali and Alejandro Valverde in action on a high-speed descent. Riding for the Lampre team, Ulissi clocked nearly five hours over the 227-kilometer (141-mile) route from Modena to Asolo, which was mostly flat until a hilly finale that made it seem like a single-day classic.
