Froome: I'd choose Tour de France over Olympics

Chris Froome has admitted he would prefer to win the Tour de France this year than win an Olympic gold medal.

Froome, who has already won the Tour de France twice in his career, prioritises wearing the yellow jersey a third time over success in Rio this summer. Speaking to 5 live BeSpoke's OJ Borg he said:

"I've got to choose the Tour at this point, in our sport the Tour is the holy grail."
