Shinnecock Hills lived up to its reputation as one of the toughest tests in golf on the opening day of a fog-delayed US Open.When play did get under way, two hours later than scheduled, only six of the early starters broke par as strong winds buffeted an already tricky course on Long Island, New York. Among them was world number two Rory McIlroy, whose one-under 69 left him one behind unfancied American Sam Stevens as the 78 players in the later wave headed out onto the courseAnd with the blustery conditions forecast to strengthen as the day wears on, both…

Warrington head coach Sam Burgess speaking to BBC Radio Merseyside:”They are a great side but I thought the first half scoreline didn’t really reflect the game. They won three moments in breaking us down – it was a couple of kicked tries and a missed tackle. “We did look clunky and I can accept that but they made us pay in the second half when they were by far the better side and when they get in a mood like that they are very hard to handle.”I am quite happy they didn’t get past 50.

Ethan Nwaneri’s future is going to be one of the more intriguing conversations among Arsenal fans this summer. Still only 19 years old, strangely, he feels a little like old news somehow given the emergence of Max Dowman this season and the late season surge enjoyed by Myles Lewis Skelly.

It is easy to forget what Nwaneri produced for the first team as a 17-year-old in 2024-25. He scored…

Fury’s last few fights have been facilitated by Turki Alalshikh, and that will be the case again later this year when ‘The Gypsy King’ is set for a long-awaited showdown against countryman Anthony Joshua. A new twist emerged this week when…
