An audacious attack by Lance Armstrong failed to break Andre Greipel's stranglehold on the Tour Down Under on Friday as the German claimed his third stage win in emphatic style. Armstrong and RadioShack teammate Tomas Vaitkus broke forward with about 16 kilometers (10 miles) to go, but were caught by the pack in hot and windy conditions near the end of the 150-kilometer stage four. Greipel, the 2008 champion, put on a trademark powerful sprint to finish ahead of Australians Robbie McEwen and Graeme Brown to maintain his overall lead after four stages.
