Rory Sutherland (Unitedhealthcare Pro Cycling Team) wygrał pierwszy etap amerykańskiego wyścigu – Tour of Utah. Australijczyk pokonał Damiano Caruso (Liquigas-Cannondale) oraz Brenta Bookwaltera (BMC Racing Team).
Trasa pierwszego odcinka to najeżony podjazdami, 211 kilometrowy etap ze startem i metą w Ogden. Przewyższenie wynosiło 2,724 metry. Chwilę po starcie do boju ruszyli: Caleb Fairly (Spidertech-C10), Ben Jacques-Maynes (Bissell), David Williams (Competitive Cyclist) oraz Eduard Beltran Suarez (EPM-UNE). Gdy czwórka miała już kilkuminutową przewagę, przeskoczyć postanowił do niej Willam Clarke (Champion System). Ta sztuka udała mu się i wkrótce na czele mieliśmy pięciu zawodników.
Czołówka miała nawet 12 minut przewagi, ale głównie za sprawą BMC-Racing skasowano ją na 26 kilometrów przed metą. Wtedy również doszło do ataków. Próbowali m.in Brent Bookwalter (BMC-Racing) i David Zabriskie (Garmin-Sharp), ale odjechać nie dali im kolarze Rabobanku.
O wszystkim zdecydował finisz z 40 osobowej grupy w którym najszybszy okazał się Rory Sutherland. Dla 30-latka to czwarte zwycięstwo w sezonie. Australijczyk został również liderem.
Bartosz Huzarski (NetApp), który ma problemy ze zdrowiem (przeziębienie) był 106 ze stratą 9 minut i 9 sekund.
