of wales might have the princess of wales might have taken part in but she will not take part in that. every decision is being made with regard to how she feels and the medical advice she is receiving. time for a look at the weather. here's louise lear. once again, pictures of threatening looking skies. these from leicestershire. the showers have been coming down through the north—east of england today and some still with the old rumble of thunder. a rush of showers through east anglia and into the south of england. they will clear away this evening. in the west, the area of high pressure is arriving. when it does it will quiet the story down. take a look at this. a beautiful afternoon across northern cornwall and an empty beach. i wish i had been. this evening and overnight, we

continue with the west — east divide. a touch of mist and fog. showery rain in east anglia and south—east england. still a breeze. three friday, that breeze will still continue. that will make it feel cooler on the exposed east coast with temperatures struggling at 15, 16. with the high pressure influencing the story in the west with the sunshine we may see temperatures peaking at 20. in the week and the high starts to push on across the country. do not get too excited. we will be chasing cloud amounts for time to time. the potential of showery rain in the far north west of scotland. on the whole, for most of us, drier and brighter and it will get that the warmer. and that's it from the bbc news at six.

hello and welcome to sportsday — i'm jane dougall. novak djokovic�*s quest for another grand slam title is on track. another win takes him a step closer to defending his french open title. les blues play the lionesses in front of a crowd, but it'll be an empty hampden for scotland women who're behind closed doors for their euro qualifier against israel. and an englishwoman in new york. we speak to emma hayes on the challenge of taking charge of the us women's national side. historically, you know what this team has good for, what they advocated for —— stood for. i think they're coming together of the right time. also coming up on sportsday — a major re—working of netball�*s super league — but with four teams being cut — not everyone is happy with the new structure.

it's hard to talk about it and it's definitely still very raw in terms of my emotions. welcome to the programme, we start with the french open and the top seed novak djokovic looks like he may be returning to form after a straight sets win over roberto carballes baena. world number one djokovic has not reached a final this season, which isn't like him. but his second round match against the spaniard demonstrated why he is the defending champion at roland garros. ben croucher was watching. they value tenacity in these parts and when you're facing a man who's won three french opens in novak djokovic, for the best part of the first set, number 63 roberto carr

bay is by dana demonstrated he had plenty. against the possiblee most nation player, that only gets you so far —— baena. 6—4. djokovic took a while, but when the talks he did, it was impressive from every angle. even when it seems like there wasn't one, he still found a way. in just over two hours in three sets for the loss of seven games, victory as it's often does to novak djokovic. then crouch her, bbc news. staying with the men's singles, alexander zverev followed up his victory over rafa nadal in the first round by beating belgium's david goffin in straight sets. world number four zverev had to work hard to win the first set tie—break, but broke early in the second, going on to win the third. felix auger aliassime and hubert hurkacz also progressed. meanwhile, second women's seed aryna sabalenka breezed past japanese qualifier moyuka uchijima in straight sets. she was playing in the second

round of a grand slam tournament for the first time and struggled to cope with sabalenka's experience. let's cross live now to roland garros to speak to our tennis correspondent russell fuller. it does look like djokovic must be on form to defend the title. what you think? i on form to defend the title. what ou think? ~ �* , ., on form to defend the title. what ou think? ~ �*, ., , on form to defend the title. what you think?— you think? i think it's a very long wa to you think? i think it's a very long way to go. _ you think? i think it's a very long way to go. jane. _ you think? i think it's a very long way to go, jane, but _ you think? i think it's a very long way to go, jane, but i _ you think? i think it's a very long way to go, jane, but i was - you think? i think it's a very long way to go, jane, but i was say i you think? i think it's a very long j way to go, jane, but i was say he way to go, jane, but i was say he looked more like novak djokovic this afternoon. that was the performance we would expect in the first week. started well in his three previous this year, and that was in monte carlo, rome and geneva. then looked what happens. he suffered very surprise defeats. i don't think we can judge him until we see him in the second week playing top 20, top ten

players. would anybody really be surprised? i also think we're a long way away from saying he is the favourite or one of the clear favourites.— favourite or one of the clear favourites. �* , ., ., ., ~ favourites. there's mental of talk about crowds _ favourites. there's mental of talk about crowds for _ favourites. there's mental of talk about crowds for the _ favourites. there's mental of talk about crowds for the women's - favourites. there's mental of talk - about crowds for the women's matches or a lack of them. the about crowds for the women's matches or a lack of them.— or a lack of them. the women tend to be schedule — or a lack of them. the women tend to be schedule in — or a lack of them. the women tend to be schedule in theory _ or a lack of them. the women tend to be schedule in theory of _ or a lack of them. the women tend to be schedule in theory of places - or a lack of them. the women tend to be schedule in theory of places to - be schedule in theory of places to the men, and that's some other grand slams historically — quite often the first day where the crowds are lower in its earlier in the day and people are perhaps getting some lunch. it was notable that the match third in the day and between naomi

osaka and iga sia... the crowd wasn't as full as you would imagine either. maybe there is something else at play, and i'm not quite sure what there is. in the brief moments the rain stops, perhaps the people who had tickets feel like they want to go in on the grounds and get a flavour of the first week.- flavour of the first week. russell fuller, thank _ flavour of the first week. russell fuller, thank you _ flavour of the first week. russell fuller, thank you very _ flavour of the first week. russell fuller, thank you very much - flavour of the first week. russell fuller, thank you very much for. fuller, thank you very much for bringing us up to date. onto qualifying the women's european championship now. we'll be hearing from england camp shortly, but the other home nations are in action tomorrow, too, with northern ireland women travelling to portugal for their qualifier, while wales play ukraine. scotland host israel, but that will be played from behind closed doors. the sfa took the decision after being "alerted to the potential for planned disruptions to the match". scotland head coach pedro martinez losa said it couldn't be avoided. it was a decision between the ssa

4—0 defeat to leeds in the championship play—off semi—final. well, burnley has appointed craig bellamy as acting head coach to temporarily replace the departing vincent kompany. kompany says it doesn't bother him that bayern munich reportedly approached a number of different managers before offering him the position. the former manchester city captain left relegated burnley, to move to one of football's biggest clubs. i leave myjob honestly too intense to speculate too much or to make any distinctions whatsoever. the opportunity was there to work with great people, that's why i signed. i was convincing christoph, i was convinced in max the idea that they had for the future. later, i was convinced by everybody else that i met they are in the same direction.

for me, i know no matter which club, especially talk loads like bayern munich, you have to be on the same line —— top clubs. whether you are not is unimportant, it is inside the building. ifelt that, and not is unimportant, it is inside the building. i felt that, and that is why the opportunity was so interesting. now, it's just two days now until the champions league final. borussia dortmund have defied the odds to reach the final in search of their second title. they'll face in contrast a real madrid side chasing a record—extending 15th victory in the competition. wembley will play host to the final, along with something we've all become very familiar with. you know that music means. it's the champions league, and injust two days' time, the final will be held in london. and the man bringing the

cup to the capital is a former player who, 22 years ago, lifted it himself. champions league theme plays. every sinale -la er champions league theme plays. every single player starts _ champions league theme plays. ee�*y single player starts from the beginning, they dream of all this trophy. i think it got more famous, as we talk more about the champions league. £13 as we talk more about the champions leaaue. g; , �* as we talk more about the champions leaaue. x: , �* , ., ., league. 43 isn't short on silverware. _ league. 43 isn't short on silverware. -- _ league. 43 isn't short on silverware. -- claude - league. 43 isn't short on - silverware. -- claude makelele. it silverware. —— claude makelele. it will be a tough game, but it's smart because they know how to play this kind of game. because they know how to play this kind of game-— because they know how to play this kind of game— i i kind of game. score prediction? i would say 3-2 — kind of game. score prediction? i would say 3-2 for— kind of game. score prediction? i would say 3-2 for my _ kind of game. score prediction? i would say 3-2 for my dread. - kind of game. score prediction? i i would say 3-2 for my dread. london was preparing _ would say 3-2 for my dread. london was preparing for — would say 3-2 for my dread. london was preparing for the _ would say 3-2 for my dread. london was preparing for the fans _ would say 3-2 for my dread. london was preparing for the fans -- - was preparing for the fans —— madrid. i met some who didn't quite agree. we madrid. i met some who didn't quite auree. ~ . madrid. i met some who didn't quite auree.~ ., , madrid. i met some who didn't quite auree.r ., , ,, madrid. i met some who didn't quite auree.~ ., , ,, ., agree. we are staying till sunday of course, agree. we are staying till sunday of course. and — agree. we are staying till sunday of

sean vendy and ben lane in the six strong squad. the us women's open is under way and it's been a disastrous start for nelly korda. the american was the favourite going into the second major of the year. she'd won the first and sixth of her last seven tournaments. but at the par three third in pennsylvania, everything unravelled. it took her ten shots! three times she found the water, before finally needing two putts for a septuple—bogey. we've all been there, nellie! now, it's all change in netball�*s super league from next season — with the sport's organisers announcing a number of controversial changes that they say will revamp the sport and allow them to grow the game. the biggest change comes in the number of teams. last season, there were ten franchises,

but four of those teams — including five—time champions team bath — have not been included. they're replaced by two new teams — the birmingham panthers and nottingham forest netball — taking the total teams in the league to eight. in other changes, matchday squad sizes will be reduced from 12 to 10, and that allows for an increase in wages — which are set to rise by at least 60%. former england captain geva mentor, who now plays for leeds rhinos, says she fully supports netball�*s new world. it's certainly been a big day for netball, andi and i think it's about time we had changed. there's been lots of talk over the last few years in particular, and if we... ithink it's about strengthening the competition here, trying to move athletes into full—time programmes and making sure we're pushing the product so we get more investment in the sport. i think it's definitely

time for change. with that comes necessary steps which doesn't soup everybody. sadly, we often refer to it is almost _ sadly, we often refer to it is almost like a funeral when you're mourning — almost like a funeral when you're mourning. you go through all the different— mourning. you go through all the different emotions. you're angry, you don't— different emotions. you're angry, you don't understand everything, you want to— you don't understand everything, you want to ask— you don't understand everything, you want to ask questions. i think some things— want to ask questions. i think some things are _ want to ask questions. i think some things are still a little unclear when — things are still a little unclear when we _ things are still a little unclear when we would like to get to the bottom _ when we would like to get to the bottom of— when we would like to get to the bottom of things and understand it. other— bottom of things and understand it. other things have been made apparent to us _ other things have been made apparent to us so. _ other things have been made apparent to us. so, yeah, ithink other things have been made apparent to us. so, yeah, i think with anything _ to us. so, yeah, i think with anything when you're so emotionally attached, _ anything when you're so emotionally attached, you just have to allow yourself — attached, you just have to allow yourself to process, go to the emotions _ yourself to process, go to the emotions and ultimately, at the end of the _ emotions and ultimately, at the end of the day, — emotions and ultimately, at the end of the day, we want the sport to thrive _ of the day, we want the sport to thrive and — of the day, we want the sport to thrive and move forward. it'sjust a really— thrive and move forward. it'sjust a really unfortunate from the south and southwest that we will have a franchise — and southwest that we will have a franchise to represent the young females — franchise to represent the young females in that region. a lot of questions being asked. earlier i spoke to claire nelson,
