The 2017 Amstel Gold Race was a road cycling one-day race that took place on 16 April. It was the 52nd edition of the Amstel Gold Race and the sixteenth event of the 2017 UCI World Tour.

It was won for the fourth time by Philippe Gilbert (Шаблон:Ct), defeating Шаблон:Ct's Michał Kwiatkowski in a two-up sprint finish. Michael Albasini from Шаблон:Ct completed the podium, leading home a small group ten seconds in arrears of the lead duo. Gilbert's win, coupled with a win two weeks prior at the Tour of Flanders, made him the third rider to win both races in the same year – after Eddy Merckx and Jan Raas.

After a 14-year hiatus, there was also a women's version of the Amstel Gold Race of 121 km, following the same parcours. This race was won by Anna van der Breggen.

Teams

As the Amstel Gold Race was a UCI World Tour event, all eighteen UCI WorldTeams were invited automatically and obliged to enter a team in the race. Six UCI Professional Continental teams competed, completing the 24-team peloton.
