    The Tour is a lot less stressful.

    Fitting that Woakes and Wood were the ones there at end as they made a big difference generally coming in.

    Well done.

    A spectacular collapse by Ireland in the World U20 RU championship final against France. Trailing 14-17 at half time, they lost 14-50.

    Should be a quiet flight home from South Africa.

    Massive pile up at the rear of the peloton just 5km from the start today. The race has been stopped to allow countless riders to receive medical treatment. Nice easy stage ahead of them when they get going again.

    Nearly seven minute “toilet break” for Djokovic. Must be his Chalfonts slowing him down.

    He’ll be blaming everything and everyone but himself if Alcaraz wins.

    He actually was quite gracious in the end but probably knew he had to in front of Royalty .

    Incredible final

    What a match and performance from Carlos .

    Particularly after losing that first set. Great skill and mental attitude.

    What an innings from Zac Crawley today, and very good of the Aussies to go up to congratulate him when he was finally out.

    Amazing stat of the day.
    Nigeria and Canada played out a scoreless draw in the Women's World Cup in Melbourne this morning.
    Canada's captain, 40 year old Christine Sinclair, missed a penalty - had she converted it, she would have become the first player ever to score in six World Cup series. Holder of over 300 caps for Canada, she has scored 190 international goals - the most in either men's or women's football. And just for good measure, she has an Olympic gold medal, as well as three bronze.

    Something tells me that she'll manage to score the one goal that she needs.

    Let’s hope the rain holds off tomorrow!

    What is the opposite of a rain dance?

    I hope it pours down - to save the embarrassment of an innings defeat.:)

    England have played this so well, it would be a shame if the weather decides it.

    Massive first innings lead for Australia in the Ashes Test - 12 runs...

    Makes you wonder if the last two days were worth playing...:)
