Hungarian champion Blanka Vas (SD Worx) lit up the nighttime Nacht van Woerden, taking her fifth victory of the 2022-2023 cyclocross season, beating the reigning world champion Marianne Vos (Jumbo-Visma). Puck Pieterse (Alpecin-Deceuninck) was third.
The trio of riders broke away early in the C2 race, which made its return after two years of cancellations amid the coronavirus pandemic. Pieterse took the hole shot and forced a separation first but in the closing lap, it was Vas who finally shook off her rivals and soloed in for the win.
