The 17th running of the Tour of Flanders for Women, a women's cycling race in Belgium, was held on 18 October 2020, serving as the 11th event of the 2020 UCI Women's World Tour.[1] Chantal van den Broek-Blaak of the Netherlands won the race, finishing just over a minute ahead of Amy Pieters.[2]
The race was originally scheduled on 5 April 2020, but was postponed due to the COVID-19 pandemic.[3][4] Because of the unprecedented intensity of the October campaign, the event is reduced by 20 km, cutting the Muur van Geraardsbergen from the route, bringing the distance to 135 km.[5]
