Bloemfontein - Australia's Simon Gerrans won the third stage of the Tour de France yesterday in a sprint finish at the end of the 145-kilometre ride from Ajaccio to Calvi on Corsica.
Gerrans edged out Slovakia's Peter Sagan, last year's green jersey winner, in a photo finish with Spain's Jose Joaquin Rojas in third.
Belgium's Jan Bakelants, winner of the second stage, holds on to the overall race leader's yellow jersey by a one-second margin, while Sagan's second place allows him to take the green jersey for the best sprinter from Marcel Kittel.
Gerrans has great praise for his team-mate, South Africa Daryl Impey.
Impey finished stage 3 in 22nd place and is lying 6th overall.
