Martin wins Tour of Beijing

TONY Martin of Germany successfully defended his Tour of Beijing title yesterday after Steven Cummings of Britain beat Ryder Hesjedal in a two-man sprint to claim the fifth and final stage.

Canadian rider Hesjedal led the final climb to tear apart the leading group of breakaway riders in the 182.5-kilometer stage, but neither he nor Cummings could threaten Omega Pharma-QuickStep's Martin for the overall victory. Cummings, of BMC Racing, easily won the sprint to take the stage, with Martin finishing 18 seconds behind.
