Slovenia's Primoz Roglic held off Remco Evenepoel to win the Tour of Catalunya on Sunday.

The pair fought out the finish of the 135km ride around Barcelona including multiple ascents of the Montjuic mountain.

Belgian Evenepoel went into the seventh and final stage 10 seconds adrift of Roglic.

Hard as he tried, Evenepoel was unable to shake off his rival, with Roglic allowing him the minor honour of taking the stage win without a sprint for the line.

Roglic set up this win by dropping his key rival Evenepoel on the upper slopes of the final climb of Friday's stage.

Roglic lost out to Evenepoel at the Tour of Spain last season and the pair are using this race as a warm up for their big showdown at the Giro d'Italia in May.
