Stage 3

4 February 2016 – Al Zubarah Fort to Al Shamal, 112 km (69.6 mi)^[7]

A year after her last stage win, also at Al Shamal, Ellen van Dijk made the best of her time-trialling skills to conquer her third success in Qatar. The Dutch rider from Boels-Dolmans, part of a breakaway group that took off as soon as the first few kilometres of a windswept day, powered away in the last two kilometres of the race. She was never to be caught and triumphantly crossed the line on her own, clear of Kirsten Wild and Lauretta Hanson. The golden jersey changes shoulders and goes to Germany's Trixi Worrack.
