Stefan Küng from Switzerland and team (Groupama-FDJ) wins the first stage at this year's Tour de Suisse and his second win of the year.

Küng was quoted saying "It’s at home. I live one kilometre from here and it’s the roads that I train on every day. I had special preparation for this year’s Tour de Suisse. I can tell you that two weeks ago I would never have imagined sitting here because I was still building up my form and struggling in the first real TT training. I was feeling better each day and confident before the start. I knew exactly what I had to do and executed it perfectly today. I always had the impression when you’re young that the first victory is easier than the second because once you win, you’re expected to win every day. What makes this more special is that you do it at home. These are the roads that I train on every day. It’s where I live. I know all the people at the organisation committee, my friends and family are somewhere here on the side of the road. I won and took the yellow jersey. I did it three years ago here, but it was a team time trial. I’m really happy to wear the yellow jersey tomorrow."

Stefan Bissegger (EF Education-Nippo) and Mattia Cattaneo (Deceuninck-QuickStep) were second and third.
