Cortina takes Tour of California 5th stage
Spain's Ivan Cortina sprinted to victory in the fifth stage of the Tour of California on Thursday as American Tejay van Garderen retained the race leader's yellow jersey. Bahrain-Merida rider Cortina, 23, claimed the first professional win of his career after holding off the challenge of Argentina's Maximiliano Richeze and Colombia's Sergio Higuita. Cortina took advantage of the absence of the race's strongest sprinters to claim the win, with riders such as Peter Sagan falling away from the peloton after being dropped in the final climb of the day.

In Elkhart, Indiana, businessman Tom Irions said the pain from tariffs is getting worse by the day. "President Trump, we support him, but this idea of tariffs being paid by the Chinese government is something that I don't quite understand," Irions said. His firm manufactures electronics for pleasure boats, RVs and commercial vehicles. One hundred and 10 workers in Indiana assemble the parts made by 2,000 employees in China. It's a $100 million business. If the president makes … [Read more...] about Escalating trade tensions felt from Beijing to California
