Już na pierwszym podjeździe peleton podzielił się, a w ucieczkę zabrała się liderka wyścigu, Anna van der Breggen (SD Worx). To jej ostatni etap Giro w karierze i Holenderka postanowiła rozegrać go po swojemu. Wraz z nią w czołówce kręciły: Lucinda Brand i Elizabeth Deignan (obie Trek-Segafredo Women), Coryn Rivera (Team DSM) i Elise Chabbey (Canyon SRAM Racing).

Po 60 kilometrach ścigania prowadząca piątka miała prawie trzy minuty przewagi. Jednak peleton nie zamierzał odpuszczać i sukcesywnie odrabiał straty. W czołówce tempa jako pierwsza nie wytrzymała Lucinda Brand.
Prowadząca czwórka na 10 kilometrów przed metą zmagała się z ostatnim dziś podjazdem, a goniąca grupa zniwelowała przewagę do minuty. Z peletonu skontrowała natomiast Sofia Bertizzolo (Liv Racing), ale Włoszka szybko została doścignięta.
Mimo naciskającego peletonu to między czwórką została rozegrana walka o etapowy triumf. Najszybsza okazała się Coryn Rivera (Team DSM), choć bliska zwycięstwa była Elizabeth Deignan (Trek-Segafredo Women). Trzecia była Elise Chabbey (Canyon SRAM Racing).
Jako czwarta do mety dojechała Anna van der Breggen (SD Worx), która celebrowała swoje zwycięstwo w klasyfikacji generalnej.
