American Katie Compton rode to a comeback victory at the UCI Cyclocross World Cup in Heusden-Zolder, Belgium, on Thursday. Compton (Trek Cyclocross Collective) topped Dutch world champion Marianne Vos (Rabobank) and Belgian champion Sanne Cant (Enertherm-BKCP) for her 20th career win on the top ’cross circuit.
With the victory, Compton extended her points lead in the World Cup before the final two stops, in Rome and Nommay, France. The World Cup closes Jan. 26 in Nommay.
After a slow start on the Zolder track, Compton fought to come back on Vos. By the second lap, Compton led the race and she rolled to a comfortable margin of victory over the multiple-time world champ.
