Belgium's Jasper Philipsen sprinted to victory Tuesday to complete Stage 10 of the Tour de France.

The Alpecin-Deceuninck cyclist finished the 187.3-kilometer route from Orleans to Saint-Amand-Montrond just ahead of Eritrea's Biniam Girmay and Germany's Pascal Ackermann.

It was the first stage win of this year's race and seventh of his career for Philipsen, 26, last year's green jersey winner.

Overall, there were no changes atop the leaderboard. Slovenia's Tadej Pogacar retained the yellow jersey, 33 seconds ahead of Belgium's Remco Evenepoel and 1:15 ahead of Denmark's Jonas Vingegaard.

The Tour de France resumes Wednesday with Stage 11, a mountainous 211-kilometer trek from Evaux-les-Bains to Le Lioran.
