Landis takes lead in brutal Pyrenees stage at Tour
Landis edged toward the Tour de France lead in Stage 11 with a bold break, grabbing the yellow jersey as Denis Menchov won the stage. The Pennsylvania rider widened his gap on rivals amid questions over an arthritic hip, hinting at a possible hip replacement if pain persists. Menchov moved into third overall, while Leipheimer finished strong but remains far back as the Alps loom. Landis warned the final week could decide the outcome, with his health in the balance and a potential early retirement on his mind.
