In what PGA Tour commissioner Jay Monahan called, “a momentous day for [the Tour] and the game of golf,” the Tour, DP World Tour, LIV Golf and the Public Investment Fund of Saudi Arabia announced the creation of a “new commercial entity to unify golf.”

In a memo to players, Monahan highlighted a plan to reunite the professional game through a “framework agreement” with the PIF, which created and owns 93 percent of LIV Golf. Although the memo, and a press release, were short on details, the agreement will create a new entity that will “include the PGA Tour’s commercial businesses and rights, as well as those of the DP World Tour” into a for-profit entity that “delivers maximum excitement and competition among the game’s best players.”

Under the agreement, Monahan will be the chief executive officer of the new entity and Yasir Al-Rumayyan, the governor of the PIF, will become the chairman of the board of directors. The Tour will remain a non-profit and its policy board will retain control of all events and all “inside the ropes” responsibilities.

With the PGA and DP World tours merging with LIV, many of golf's most notable names found out about the shocking news on Twitter.

“The PGA Tour will appoint a majority of the board and hold a majority voting interest in the combined entity,” the memo read.

LIV Golf’s launch last year led to the most contentious period in professional golf with players who joined the breakaway circuit suspended by the PGA Tour and European circuit and an antitrust lawsuit that escalated to include the PIF and Al-Rumayyan in U.S. District Court.

Under the agreement, that legal wrangling is over. “Today’s announcement brings about an end to all pending litigation,” the memo read.

How LIV Golf and its team golf concept integrates into the current ecosystem remains to be seen and the memo to players said the current LIV schedule will “continue as planned.”

Players who joined LIV Golf and were suspended and fined by the PGA Tour and European circuit will also be allowed to re-apply for membership.

“This is a complicated endeavor and one that will be guided by established PGA Tour rules and regulations," the memo read. Just last week at the Memorial, officials claimed there was “no policy” for players who joined LIV Golf to return to the Tour.

The financial investment from the PIF into the new united entity will include a premier corporate sponsorship of the PGA Tour and the fund will also make “an additional investment in the new entity that will allow us to build an even stronger and more robust commercial business, together.”

Monahan planned to meet with players at this week’s RBC Canadian Open at 4 p.m. ET Tuesday, but he will face a confused and somewhat hostile room.

“You don’t trash people [the PIF and Saudi Arabia] like this and then have a sudden drastic change of heart and then go into business with them,” said one player who asked not to be identified. “There has to be way more to this than we are being told.”

Player reactions from the PGA Tour, LIV Golf merger news

With the PGA Tour and DP World Tour merging with LIV Golf, many of golf's most notable names found out about the shocking news on Tuesday morning like the rest of the world — on Twitter. 

Here are some of their reactions: 

On Tuesday, the PGA Tour, DP World Tour and Saudi Arabia’s Public Investment Fund (PIF) announced an agreement to merge the PIF’s golf-related commercial businesses and rights (including LIV Golf) with the commercial businesses and rights of the PGA Tour and DP World Tour into a new, collectively owned, for-profit entity.

The move was announced to players in a letter from PGA Tour commissioner Jay Monahan.

The letter, printed in its entirety below, outlines the framework of what’s to come from the merger.

PGA TOUR Members:

Today is a momentous day for your organization and the game of golf as a whole.

The PGA TOUR - your TOUR - is leading the formation of a new commercial entity to unify golf, one that sees the end of the disruption and distraction that has divided the men's professional game for the better part of three years.

Through a framework agreement, the Public Investment Fund (PIF) is contributing its golf-related commercial businesses and rights (including LIV Golf), along with a significant financial investment, toward minority equity ownership of a new, collectively held, for-profit LLC. This new entity (name TBD) will also include the PGA TOUR's commercial businesses and rights, as well as those of the DP World Tour.

PGA TOUR Inc. will remain in place as a 501(c)(6) tax-exempt organization and retains administrative oversight of the PGA TOUR, including the sanctioning of events, the administration of the competition and rules, as well as all other "inside the ropes" responsibilities; I remain as Commissioner of the PGA TOUR and Ed Herlihy as PGA TOUR Policy Board Chairman. PIF's Governor Yasir Al-Rumayyan will join the PGA TOUR Policy Board.

Upon execution of a definitive agreement, the Board of Directors - which will oversee and direct all the new entity's golf-related commercial operations, businesses and investments - will include Al-Rumayyan as Chairman and me as Chief Executive Officer; the two of us will also be a part of the new entity's Executive Committee along with Ed Herlihy and PGA TOUR Policy Board member Jimmy Dunne. The PGA TOUR will appoint a majority of the Board and hold a majority voting interest in the combined entity.

There are many details to work through as we develop a definitive agreement, which will ultimately require PGA TOUR Policy Board approval, and I know you have many questions. Some additional items to note in the meantime:

  • Notably, today's announcement brings about an end to all pending litigation between the participating entities and prohibits any further recruitment of PGA TOUR, DP World Tour or LIV Golf members.
  • We will conduct a comprehensive evaluation of LIV Golf and determine how best to integrate team golf into the professional game. The 2023 LIV Golf schedule will continue as planned.
  • We will work cooperatively to establish a fair and objective process for any players who desire to re-apply for membership with the PGA TOUR or the DP World Tour following the completion of the 2023 season, consistent with each Tour's policies. This is a complicated endeavor and one that will be guided by established PGA TOUR rules and regulations.
  • In addition to the financial investment in the new entity for an equity stake:
    o PIF will make a financial investment to become a premier corporate sponsor of the
    PGA TOUR (and DP World Tour and other international tours)
  • PIF will make an additional investment in the new entity that will allow us to build an even stronger and more robust commercial business, together.
  • PIF is committed to significant financial support toward causes that positively impact the game on a global basis.

There is much work to do to get us from a framework agreement to a definitive agreement, but one thing is obvious: through this transformational agreement and with PIF's collaborative investment, the immeasurable strength of the PGA TOUR's history, legacy and pro-competitive model not only remains intact, but is supercharged for the future. Our game, our players and our fans will no doubt benefit for years to come.

I will be on site at the RBC Canadian open later today and would like to invite those in the field to a Player Meeting at 4 p.m. to help answer any questions you may have.

Sincerely,

Jay Monahan

Sources: Barca boost as financial plan approved

Published in Soccer
Tuesday, 06 June 2023 09:24

LaLiga have approved Barcelona's two-year financial viability plan in a decision which will allow the Catalan club to register the new contracts signed by Ronald Araujo and Gavi, among others, various sources have confirmed to ESPN.

A source at Barca said the league's OK, received on Tuesday, means they can also "make advances" in the transfer market after coach Xavi Hernandez confirmed they need to strengthen the squad to compete in the Champions League next season.

- Stream on ESPN+: LaLiga, Bundesliga, more (U.S.)

The approval, therefore, could boost their chances of signing Messi, although sources at both LaLiga and Barca added that the club must still adhere to the 40% rule for now, which means they can only spend 40% of anything they save in wages or generate in transfer fees.

In approving Barca's viability plan, LaLiga have recognised savings the club have already made through the closure of Barca TV and the departures of Sergio Busquets and Jordi Alba, who were two of the biggest earners in the team.

Therefore, Barca will finally register the new contracts signed by Araujo, Gavi, Marcos Alonso, Sergi Roberto and Inaki Pena. They also hope left-back Alejando Balde will commit to a new deal soon following positive talks with his agent, Jorge Mendes.

The Gavi case had been particularly precarious for Barca, with the possibility that he could leave for free this summer if his registration did not go through in time -- although the midfielder has always expressed his desire to remain at the club.

Barca had even taken LaLiga to court in January, temporarily getting Gavi registered as a first-team player before another court ruling in March overturned the decision and demanded the Spain international be re-registered on a youth team contract.

Once the renewals have been registered, Barca will turn their attention to summer signings.

Xavi has said bringing back Lionel Messi and replacing the outgoing midfielder Busquets are his top priorities, but defender Inigo Martinez could be first in the door at Spotify Camp Nou.

Martinez, 32, announced Tuesday he would not renew his contract with Athletic Bilbao and is already in Barcelona awaiting for the club to be able to complete the deal which will see him sign on until at least 2025.

- When does the summer transfer window open and close?

With LaLiga's approval of their financial plan, a source at Barca says they can now sign players on multi-year deals once again, although the 40% rule will limit their business for now.

Any future incomings, including that of Messi, may be dependent on outgoings first, with a crop of players returning from loans and several first team players all set to be pushed out the door.

Messi announced last weekend that he will leave Paris Saint-Germain when his contract expires this month and Barca, along with Saudi Arabian team Al Hilal and Major League Soccer franchise Inter Miami, are keen to sign him.

However, even if Messi were to accept the league's minimum wage (around €200,000 per year) a LaLiga source explained he would still account for €25 million of the club's annual spending cap due to a system which takes into account past wages and performances to prevent clubs from cheating fair play regulations.

Messi's dad, Jorge, said on Monday that his son would love to return to Barca, where he spent 20 years before joining PSG in 2021, but later admitted that a homecoming was "complicated."

India will take a decision on R Ashwin's selection on the morning of the World Test Championship final against Australia once they have assessed conditions as they stand.
While some rain is forecast from Saturday (fourth day) during the game, there has also been considerable interest in the nature of The Oval surface for the final, mostly because no Test cricket has ever been played at the ground as early as June. Traditionally, The Oval has been known to aid spin, as well as being conducive to reverse swing but that has been the case for Tests mostly towards the end of the summer. The pitch for the final isn't exactly a fresh one. It has been used before, but not in a while.

Ashwin's selection has been a consistent theme through India's recent Tests in England, or more accurately the fact that he has not been picked. He missed out entirely on the last Test series in England, of which four Tests were played in 2021 and one last summer. In India's last Test at The Oval, in September 2021, they picked Ravindra Jadeja as the sole spinner, relying on a three-man pace attack and Shardul Thakur as the all-round option.

The last Test Ashwin did play in England was the last WTC final, against New Zealand in Southampton in 2021. Asked on the eve of this final how difficult it is to leave out a player such as Ashwin, the India captain Rohit Sharma made sure to point out that a decision had not yet been made.

"I'm not saying that Ashwin is not going to play," Rohit said. "We'll wait until tomorrow because one thing I have seen here, the pitch actually changes quite a bit day to day. Today it's looking this way, tomorrow it might be slightly different, who knows? So, the message to the boys has been very clear. All 15 must be ready to play at any point in time."

There has been, as Rohit said, county cricket played at The Oval this year, three rounds of it, with the last game ending on May 20.
"We've been hearing not much of cricket is played here in June," Rohit said. "The County season has been played here. We saw there was a game played a couple of weeks back here. It's not like it's the first game of the season happening on this ground. We are quite aware of what the conditions are, what is going to happen in the next five days. Weather forecast looks alright."

Going by the data from those county matches, some behavioural traits are clear, the clearest one that spin has barely had a role to play.

Spinners have only bowled 32 overs in those games (average: 158), compared to 745 from pace bowlers. No spinner on either side has bowled more than seven overs in an innings. Surrey have not deployed a specialist spinner, relying instead on Will Jacks' part-time offbreaks. That has been a deliberate ploy, the team playing to its strengths of a good crop of fast bowlers. The locals say that is why surfaces have been geared for both good pace and bounce with minimal help for spin as the game progresses.

Bounce is likely at the WTC final too, at least going by the Surrey curator Lee Fortis' - admittedly light-hearted - exchange on Ashwin's YouTube channel: "It will be bouncy, that's one thing, it will be bouncy."

First-innings scores at The Oval this season have not been big. Surrey have bowled first in every game, twice after winning the toss, bowling sides out for 278, 254 and 209, with some early swing and seam on offer. They have won each of those games, ultimately chasing down targets of 243, 70 and 58 for the total loss of two wickets.

Bowling first may not be a bad option based on those numbers, but no side has crossed 400 in their first innings, the highest score Surrey's 380 after Middlesex had been bowled out for 209.

Over a bigger sample size of the last five years, across the 16 county matches played in or before June at The Oval, spin has played a bigger role, with around 58 overs per game. And Ashwin did make a fairly strong impression playing here in July 2021, picking up a six-for that helped bowl Somerset out for 69. The ground has been the joint-fastest scoring venue in those five seasons (in or before June), with runs at 3.41 per over.

Big picture - final flourish for Warner, Starc, Ashwin, Kohli, Pujara?

Is it world cricket's most prestigious match? Or is it a final that should be more than a one-off contest but cannot be, thanks to the constraints of a calendar that is squeezing Test cricket to the margins, awkwardly positioned between two events that are, in hugely contrasting ways, more important, and tacked onto the end of an exclusionary league that isn't even a proper league, in which nearly every team plays fewer Test matches than they used to?

The answer, perhaps, is that it is both. For all its flaws, it's the final of the World Test Championship, and for the 22 players who'll feature in it, could be career-defining, and it could end with joys and regrets that they hold onto for the rest of their lives.

This final feels especially weighty, since it pits the two best teams not just of Test cricket's last two years but arguably of its last decade.

India were Test cricket's dominant side, with all their key players at or approaching their peaks, during the 2019-21 cycle, during which they lost only one series, to New Zealand, before losing the final to the same team. They've had to chart a more tortuous route to the final this time, and some of the great names in their ranks have lost some of their old invulnerability, but they remain a superb team that will treasure this chance to do to Australia what New Zealand did to them two years ago.
Australia will feel they should have been part of that 2021 final - they missed out because an over-rate penalty consigned them to third place rather than second on the points table. They're here now, though, as league-table toppers, and they start with a clear edge. They are, like India, an all-weather side, but they're especially good in conditions that favour pace over spin. More crucially, they start with fewer key players out injured. Australia will miss Josh Hazlewood, while India will be without Jasprit Bumrah and Rishabh Pant, two once-in-a-generation players. The fact that India still look formidable is a credit to the depth of talent in their system.

This final may also represent something of a final flourish for the era-defining players that crowd the two sides. Usman Khawaja, Nathan Lyon, Steven Smith, Mitchell Starc and David Warner are all 33 or older, as are R Ashwin, Ravindra Jadeja, Virat Kohli, Cheteshwar Pujara, Ajinkya Rahane, Rohit Sharma and Umesh Yadav, with Mohammed Shami less than three months shy of joining them. They've all played upwards of 50 Tests, barring captains Cummins and Rohit who are set to reach that milestone on Wednesday.

Two golden generations, then, are gunning for what could be their last shot at a Test world title. Some dreams are set to come true, and some others to shatter.

In the spotlight - Cummins and Shami

Pat Cummins endured a difficult tour of India in February-March, on and off the field. He picked up three wickets in two Tests at an average of 39.55, and left the tour midway to spend time with his seriously ill mother, who died when the fourth Test was in play. In his absence, Australia made a stirring fightback from 2-0 down, winning the third Test and drawing the fourth, and stand-in captain Steven Smith came in for widespread praise for his tactical acumen. While Smith said he no longer held full-time leadership aspirations, and reaffirmed that this was now "Pat's team", Cummins' captaincy might still come under some scrutiny at The Oval, where he'll also want to restate his credentials as the world's best fast bowler, particularly with Hazlewood out injured.
Bumrah might contest Cummins' claim to being the world's best fast bowler, but he'll play no part in this final. Bumrah's absence leaves India without their No. 1 strike weapon and could potentially upset the balance of their attack too - it's harder for them to pick four fast bowlers, even if conditions dictate it, if Bumrah isn't around. It is imperative, then, that Mohammed Shami brings all his class and experience to play. His record in England - 38 wickets in 13 Tests at 40.52 - is deceptive, because he's often bowled brilliantly in the country without enjoying a lot of luck, and India will hope he'll figure out a way at The Oval to not just beat the bat frequently but find its edge too.

Team news - Bharat or Kishan?

With Australia confirming that Scott Boland will take the injured Hazlewood's place, their XI almost picks itself. With Peter Handscomb dropping out of the squad after an excellent spell as a horses-for-courses middle-order batter in India, Travis Head will move back to No. 5 and allow David Warner, who missed the last two Tests in India with a fractured elbow, to return as opener alongside Usman Khawaja.

Australia (likely): 1 David Warner, 2 Usman Khawaja, 3 Marnus Labuschagne, 4 Steven Smith, 5 Travis Head, 6 Cameron Green, 7 Alex Carey (wk), 8 Pat Cummins (capt), 9 Mitchell Starc, 10 Nathan Lyon, 11 Scott Boland.

Ajinkya Rahane is set to return to Test cricket for the first time since January 2022, his experience likely to get him the nod over Suryakumar Yadav with the incumbent No. 5 Sheyas Iyer out with a back injury. KS Bharat's superior glovework won him the nod over Ishan Kishan during the home series against Australia, but in English conditions where keepers spend far less time up to the stumps negotiating sharp turn and inconsistent bounce, India could be tempted to back Kishan's counterattacking skills and left-handedness. The biggest question they face, though, is whether to play four fast bowlers and just one spinner in Ravindra Jadeja, or pair him with R Ashwin.

India (possible): 1 Rohit Sharma (capt), 2 Shubman Gill, 3 Cheteshwar Pujara, 4 Virat Kohli, 5 Ajinkya Rahane, 6 Ravindra Jadeja, 7 KS Bharat/Ishan Kishan (wk), 8 R Ashwin/Shardul Thakur, 9 Umesh Yadav/Jaydev Unadkat, 10 Mohammed Shami, 11 Mohammed Siraj.

Pitch and weather

Spin often plays a crucial role at The Oval. Since the start of 2012, during which time the ground has hosted 10 Tests, fast bowlers have averaged a collective 30.57 at The Oval and spinners 34.83. Of the English grounds that have hosted at least five Tests in this period, The Oval is where fast bowlers have achieved their worst collective average, while spinners have done better only at the Ageas Bowl (31.27) and Headingley (32.43).

These numbers, though, could have something to do with Oval Tests tending to take place in August and September, when the weather is warm and dry and the pitches have undergone wear and tear over the long English summer. The ground has never previously hosted a Test match as early as June.

Oval pitches typically tend to offer plenty of bounce, which could enthuse bowlers, both fast and slow, on either side, as well as allow batters to play their shots if there isn't too much sideways movement.

The forecast promises a clear, bright start to the Test match, with maximum temperatures in the early 20s Celsius. There could be rain on Saturday, Sunday and Monday, though - the scheduled fourth, fifth and reserve days.

Stats and trivia

  • India have won their last four Test series against Australia - two at home and two away - all by 2-1 margins.
  • Australia (0.411) and India (0.400) have near-identical win-loss ratios at The Oval. Australia have won seven and lost 17 of their 38 Tests here, while India have won two and lost five of their 14.
  • Virat Kohli is 21 short of becoming the fifth India batter to score 2000 Test runs against Australia. Sachin Tendulkar (3630), VVS Laxman (2434), Rahul Dravid (2143) and Cheteshwar Pujara (2033) are the others to have reached the mark.
  • In three Tests at The Oval, Steven Smith has scored 391 runs at an average of 97.75, with two hundreds and an 80 in five innings.
  • Quotes

    "Think this puts a bit of a bookend on the last few years, then feels like it starts afresh with an Ashes series. Think the first final was a bit of foreign concept and it probably wasn't until we missed out that we thought that would be nice to be part of. So there's been a bit more on it in the last couple of years and pretty pumped to be here."
    Pat Cummins says the concept of the WTC, and the desire to be part of a final, has grown on Australia's players over the course of its two cycles.

    "No, actually the way he is batting at the moment, I don't think he needs any advice. It's just about his preparation, how he's prepared in the last five or six days since he's come back from the IPL [...] Gill is somebody who likes to bat, likes to spend a lot of time in the middle. I know even though it was the T20 format, you saw he got big hundreds [in the IPL]. He likes to be out there in the middle and face that challenge. That is what he likes and that is what I will also hope [he does in the WTC final]. And team India will also hope that he spends a lot of time in the middle and plays well like he's been doing in the last six or eight months. So to be honest, not really too much to tell him. It's just about giving him that confidence because he's a very confident player."

    Police: Two Browns players robbed at gunpoint

    Published in Breaking News
    Tuesday, 06 June 2023 10:11

    BEREA, Ohio -- Two Cleveland Browns players were robbed at gunpoint by six masked men, according to a police report.

    Police redacted the names of the victims in the incident in the report, but a team source confirmed that the two players were cornerback Greg Newsome II and defensive tackle Perrion Winfrey.

    Neither was harmed during the incident, police said.

    According to police, the two players left a Cleveland nightclub early Monday morning. When they got to Newsome's truck in a nearby parking lot, six masked men jumped out of an unknown car and robbed them at gunpoint at 3:30 a.m. ET Monday. In addition to stealing jewelry, the suspects fled in Newsome's truck.

    Police are attempting to locate the stolen vehicle. Newsome referenced the incident on Twitter on Monday night, writing: "It's a cruel world we live in."

    Newsome wasn't the only Browns player to have his car stolen over the weekend. Another source confirmed that Browns backup running back Demetric Felton had his vehicle stolen out of his apartment garage.

    The Browns begin mandatory minicamp Tuesday.

    Rivals of the double Olympic and world champion embraced her after making history in Florence

    The biggest compliment you can receive as an athlete is getting respect from your competitors.

    When athletes who battle you for Olympic and world titles come together in an expression of unity, to congratulate you on a historic achievement, you realise the impact you’ve made off the track as well as on it.

    That was the situation when Faith Kipyegon set the world 1500m record at the Florence Diamond League (June 2).

    The 29-year-old clocked a stunning 3:49.11 in the capital of Italy’s Tuscany region, finally surpassing the 3:50.07 that Genzebe Dibaba ran in Monaco eight years ago.

    Kipyegon, already considered by many as the greatest female 1500m runner in history because of her two Olympic and world crowns, knew breaking that elusive world record would cement her place at the top of the tree.

    Faith Kipyegon (Getty)

    After opening up her outdoor season with a comfortable 1500m win at the Doha Diamond League, the Kenyan told AW: “Absolutely [breaking the world record], everything is possible. This year, I’m looking forward to challenging it and I will try and break the record. I didn’t get it before and I hope this time around it will be really good.”

    Kipyegon refers to last year’s Monaco Diamond League, when she missed out on the world record by just three tenths of a second after running 3:50.37.

    In 2021, she also attempted to break Dibaba’s mark in Monaco but clocked 3:51.07.

    Those two failed attempts, plus the 3:49.11, means that Kipyegon now holds the third and sixth fastest times in history as well as the world record.

    She will be the heavy favourite to claim a third world 1500m title in Budapest and, if fit, no one would be in their right mind to bet against her.

    Such was the level of respect for Kipyegon in Florence that Laura Muir, Jessica Hull and Cory Ann McGee – who finished third, seventh and ninth respectively in Oregon – waited on the track to congratulate the Kenyan after her lap of honour.

    Not only did the trio, plus the entire 1500m field, hug Kipyegon but they posed for a photo, pointing at the double Olympic and world champion as she held the world record sign.

    It’s the kind of moment that, in track and field, is usually synonymous with multi-eventers who celebrate two days of work. For an individual discipline that lasts less than two minutes, that kind of reaction is a rarity.

    Muir, who was beaten by Kipyegon to Olympic gold in Tokyo, told Scottish Athletics: “When you’re trying to stick with the world record-holder, it’s going to be tough! I’m just so happy for Faith [Kipyegon], she deserves that so much.”

    Ciara Mageean, a double European 1500m medallist, finished second to Kipyegon in last year’s Diamond League final and was even more emphatic about her praise for the Kenyan.

    She told AW: “I crossed that line and I saw ‘world record’ and I was like ‘holy moly’. To be in a race where a world record was broken and to go to such an amazing woman is just fantastic.

    “I’m so delighted for her and that will be the highlight of that race for me, never mind my time! I’m not going to be a sub-3:50 runner and I know that.”

    The group photo was as special as the run itself and spoke volumes of how Kipyegon is perceived as a person and not just an athlete.

    Benevolent and endearing, she radiates a warmth that is impossible not to notice.

    Faith Kipyegon (Getty)

    Kipyegon, who started out in athletics by running the 4km journey from her home in the village of Keringet to her primary school and back again, stepped away from the sport in 2018 – having already become Olympic and world 1500m champion in 2016 and 2017 respectively –  to give birth to her daughter Alyn.

    After a 21-month absence, she returned to claim a world silver medal over the distance in Doha and then retained her Olympic crown in Tokyo.

    Family and female empowerment is everything to Kipyegon, who is based out of Kaptagat in Kenya and is, like world marathon record-holder and double Olympic champion Eliud Kipchoge, under the stewardship of coach Patrick Sang.

    In an exclusive interview with AW in our November 2022 magazine, she stated: “When I’m training in camp, I think about her [Alyn]. When I’m out of the country, I think about he, so when I get home it’s something special for me to be around her.

    “I want to motivate women. I want to show them the right way and I was them to follow in my footsteps. I want to be their mentor and for them to think ‘Faith Kipyegon is a great woman. I want to do things like Faith’.

    Faith Kipyegon, Ciara Mageean and Laura Muir (Getty)

    “I want to motivate the women and young athletes around the world – not just in Africa – to follow their hearts and work on their careers.”

    It’s no surprise then that Kipyegon has joined up with Nike as part of an Athlete Think Tank that aims to inspire young girls both in sport and fashion.

    The initiative seeks to accelerate change from the grassroots level by investing in more than 135 community partners supporting women and girls worldwide.

    In decades to come, people will look back at athletes from this era and Kipyegon’s legacy will likely be one of the strongest.

    The world record was the final piece of the jigsaw on the track and every athlete in that race in Florence knew it.

    A picture truly does tell a thousand words.

    Britain's Neal Skupski and partner Wesley Koolhof's bid for a first Grand Slam men's doubles title ended with a French Open quarter-final defeat.

    Skupski and Dutchman Koolhof, the top seeds, were beaten 6-3 7-6 (7-4) by Spain's Marcel Granollers and Argentine Horacio Zeballos, the 10th seeds.

    Skupski had been the last remaining Briton in the doubles at Roland Garros.

    He and Koolhof had been a mini break up in the second-set tie-break before letting the advantage slip away.

    They were knocked out when Koolholf went just long with a backhand on the first match point.
