hello and welcome to sportsday — i'm jane dougall. the conditions have defeated some at the open, others are thriving. the lead has changed hands and it's tight at the top on the third day at troon. rain too at trent bridge, but england drove through to build a lead over the west indies on the third day of the second test. and hungary for success, britain's lando norris is on pole for sunday's formula i grand prix after two red flags in qualifying. also coming up on sportsday... a british record just six days before the olympics bodes well for keely hodgkinson at the london diamond league. and tributes to one of snooker�*s greats.

six—time world champion ray reardon has died at the age of 91. welcome to the programme. torrential rain at troon has affected the leaderboard on the third day of the open with the names changing all the time at the top. irishman shane lowry started the day with a two—shot lead over the rest of the field — that is not the case now, he has slipped down significantly. however, some have made hay, the qualifier dan brown has shone again for england, and american billy horschel has charged up the leaderboard. olly foster is live for us at royal troon, olly, bring us up to date. ican i can try and bring you up to date, because like you say the leaderboard is jumping all over the place. because like you say the leaderboard isjumping all over the place. are still thousands out on the course here at royal troon as the leaders

come down the home stretch, just two or three more holes to play in the third round of the open championship. let's show you the leaderboard as we have it. you mentioned a couple of the movers, billy horschel, the american, went out on the front line with four baddies, dropped a couple but he is nowjoint leader with dan brown, the englishman from north yorkshire. he started the day on five under, hanging on in there. we will show him at one of your shots in a moment, but shane lowry, he really struggled throughout. the players out there cannot string two birdies together. the rain continues to fall and the wind has really picked up into their faces. and the wind has really picked up into theirfaces. let's and the wind has really picked up into their faces. let's show you dan brown who led after the first round, kept himself in the mix and clearly it wasn't freakish where he stood at the end of that first round. he is still in contention going into the

final round if you can just keep things together. that was his approach onto the 12th green, four birdies, four macro bogies so far so he stays on five under, but billy horschel, he has embraced this environment with the torrential rain every time here, takes an approach shot, he takes his waterproofs off, he does not want to be restricted, he does not want to be restricted, he is in short sleeves and he has nailed it pretty much every time. he is thejoint leader, but nailed it pretty much every time. he is the joint leader, but shane lowry, he really came unstuck on the signature hole here, the eighth hole, the par three postage stamp, ended up in that coffin at bunko, managed to get it out in one but that led to a double bogey, so by two at the start of the day and much more favourable conditions, he is now two off the lead. if the weather stays like this, it is really anybody�*s going into the final

round, but a couple of final holes still have to play so we will keep our eye on those as well. despite the weather _ our eye on those as well. despite the weather there _ our eye on those as well. despite the weather there have _ our eye on those as well. despite the weather there have been - our eye on those as well. despite l the weather there have been some moments of brilliance, haven't they? that really have been some fantastic rounds today, some of the players benefiting from the karma, earlier conditions. we had some burns, lawrence, they went round in two off the course record, and then it came on the seventh, a long par three, centred in the right direction, the wind hadn't picked upjust yet centred in the right direction, the wind hadn't picked up just yet and you can see exactly where the ball is heading right now. bang in the hole, absolutejoy is heading right now. bang in the hole, absolute joy on the team box and of course you know what happens when you shoot a hole in one, the drinks are on you when you get back to the clubhouse, so ourjob is going to be to track down kim and

see if we can get in on some of that, jane. see if we can get in on some of that. jane-— see if we can get in on some of that, jane. ., ., , ., , that, jane. from a very damp troon, thanks very — that, jane. from a very damp troon, thanks very much. _ a damp day at trent bridge but not as bad as the golf. it's been a pretty mixed day for england in fact on the third day of the second test against the west indies. at stumps the hosts lead by 207 runs, with ben duckett and ollie pope making a strong stand — duckett getting 76 in the second innings. and harry brook got his half century off just 62 balls. england finished the day on 248 for 3, as patrick gearey reports. this is a picture of a beautiful summer's day, if you are an english pace bowler. the gloomier it gets, the happier they are, fuelled by the belief the ball will move just enough. chris woakes shines under clouds. england should have had a lead,

but with one wicket left, west indies set about causing whatever havoc they could. never mind the risk, never mind the roof, no one was hurt in the making of this west indian lead of a1, though some pride was damaged. under pressure in the series for the first time, england could have done without this. jayden seales' touch, zak crawley out of luck, but misfortune does not prompt caution in this england team, quite the opposite. ollie pope and ben duckett quickly manoeuvred them back ahead. the game becalmed, the only real movement was to and from the bar, but at 4:30pm, the umpire changed the ball, and immediately pope nicked it. duckett followed not long later, alzarri joseph got them both. now the skies were darker, the challenge for batters starker. you won't see harry brook retreat, but this was a more watchful england. joe root was careful in the gloom. the lead ticked up gradually. brook made 50, convincingly. by this point, the last test was long over. this one may have some distance still to go. patrick gearey, bbc news.

well, that leaves england in a strong position after a day of fluctuating fortunes at trent bridge. and all—rounder chris woakes thinks that partnership betweenjoe root and harry brook could be crucial. that partnership at the end was a real crucial one for us in terms of getting a grip of the game a little bit. still certainly not in complete control, because as any test match, tomorrow morning will be crucial going forward, but certainly that partnership in tricky conditions when it got a bit dark and they took a new ball, it was tough conditions so the boys batted really well. to formula 1 now and mclaren have locked out the front row for the hungarian grand prix, with lando norris on pole for sunday's race. oscar piastri will start behind his team—mate, while world champion max verstappen is in third. but a mercedes mistake in qualifying left george russell down in 17th, as nick parrott reports. one thing almost guarantees excitement in formula 1, rain. it wasn't heavy in hungary, but enough to make things tricky. sergio perez signed a contract

extension with red bull, but this is why speculation about his future continues. before that crash, george russell almost went off in the same place. he had to try again to set a good lap time, but he and his mercedes team messed up. why are we not putting enough fuel in the car to complete the session, guys? the pole sitter last time out at silverstone will start from 17th. mclaren�*s mistakes have cost lando norris dear this season, but here they were perfect. they managed to get not just the briton on pole, but also his australian team—mate oscar piastri alongside him on the front row. world champion max verstappen was hot on their heels, but before he could have another go, yuki tsunoda brought out another red flag. mclaren went again to protect their positions, but it was nothing more than a lap of honour, something they will be hoping to repeat after sunday's race. nick parrott, bbc news. six days until the start of the olympics and britain's keely hodgkinson has made a strong statement, breaking a british record with a huge personal best in the 800

metres at the london diamond league. she becomes the sixth fastest women in history in the event. meanwhile, matt hudson smith broke his european 400 metre record, marking him out as a gold medal contender in paris. sarah mulkerins is at the london stadium for us. yes, welcome to the london stadium, the final london diamond league meeting ahead of the olympics. it is edging ever closer to the big time in paris. i'm delighted to say i have steve cram and steve backley alongside me to react to some of the best results and performances that we saw today and how it sets up brilliantly for paris as well. so steve, from a track perspective, give us your highlight. i don't know, harderfor me than him, he didn't have as much going on in the field. it has been really interesting, actually. we have been talking about it, normally in the two or three weeks leading up to the olympics you see a bit of caginess, not everybody racing, but paris, monaco and now london,

the last ten, 12 days have been phenomenal. we've seen world records, today we saw two incredible british records, so you are asking me to choose between keely hodgkinson running 1:54 and matt hudson smith running 43:74. i think matt, probably, because it is such a step up for him. keely is world number one, really, but matt now, you know, outside the british shores maybe not too many people give him a chance to win, but i think he has got a great chance now so i am going matt hudson smith. and i suppose the important thing for matt is keeping fit and healthy and this is something he has been struggling with over the years but we have seen him getting better at that over recent years. you know, he had bronze a couple of years ago, silver, there is a sense of is it gold this year? it is about managing not just how you are racing, you have to be fit and healthy and matt's done a greatjob with when he moved to the states, new setup and they have done a great

job with that. and we are watching people like kgt for you as well, it is notjust about... you have to get the games ready. it does not mean you have to go around the world doing all sorts of things, you just have to be ready, don't you? and it is slightly different in the field, i have to say, sarah. it is less physiological and probably more psychological i would say, and technical, because of the mechanics and there isjust more to content within the field, i think. and i suppose the two big names that fans all across great britain will have been looking at today in the field, katarina johnson—thompson, she will be going in the heptathlon, she was going in the long jump today, and also molly caudery who isjust having a phenomenal breakthrough year in the pole vault. what did you make of the two of their showings? first of all, molly caudery in the pole vault, obviously world indoor champion, a lot of pressure, a lot of expectation. that's a new sensation for her, new kind of feelings to deal with. lots of positives though and i think in the field, i mentioned there's more going on, it doesn't always have to go right.

it's not that... what she did here today, it didn't set the world alight, but that is ok because alarm bells will still be ringing, doubt is actually a positive thing in the field events because you are still searching. once you think you have found the winning formula you are just about to be beaten, so she certainly hasn't done that and i think that will possibly bode well in the long run. you have to be positive, whatever happens you have to be positive. yeah, absolutely. thank you both so much. also another big showing from the man who is captivating so many athletics fans all around the world, noah lyles. he is going to be in paris going for a plethora of golds. he won the 100 metres today. let's take a quick look at some of the other stories making the headlines. there was a heart in the mouth moment for elfyn evans on stage 14 of rally latvia. the briton said this was a silly mistake.

he ended the day in sixth overall, more than a minute and a half behind leader kalle rovanpera with four stages to go. davy litten scored the pick of hull fc�*s four tries as they hung on for a thrilling 24—22 victory over wigan warriors' at mkm stadium. it ended the super league leaders eight—match winning run. in today's other match, hull kingston rovers beat leeds rhinos. rafael nadal is through to his first atp final in more than two years after beating croatia's duje ajdukovic at the swedish open. he'll face seventh seed nuno borges in sunday's final. the spaniard is using the clay court tournament to build his fitness ahead of the olympic games. judd trump is through to the shanghai masters final after a 10—3 win over ronnie o'sullivan. the world number two dominated the match, winning six frames in a row at one stage. he'll face shaun murphy tomorrow. tributes have been paid to former world snooker champion ray reardon who's died at the age of 91.

the welshman dominated the sport in the 1970s, winning six world titles. he also played a key role in growing snooker�*s popularity. andy swiss looks back on his life. he was one of snooker�*s greatest players and entertainers. cheering. ray reardon helped transform what had been a pastime into one of britain's biggest sports. reardon was born in tredegar in south wales, he practised snooker in the local club and worked as a coalminer until an accident which left him trapped underground changed his life. when it happened i thought that is it, i am a goner, and probably i did black out for seconds, i don't know, i was just aware of my temperature was going up, blood pressure was enormous. but i came out of bit and

scarred fortunately and i thought thatis scarred fortunately and i thought that is it, you know. —— came out of it unscarred. and so instead, reardon turned to professional snooker, as did the bbc. in 1969, they started the programme pot black, with reardon one of its new stars. a great shot! performance here by reardon — it was a sport seemingly tailor—made for new colour tv and it soon had a new world champion. reardon dominated snooker in the 1970s. he became a chat show celebrity. the world he became a chat show celebrity. tie: world snooker champion, he became a chat show celebrity. ti2 world snooker champion, ray reardon. and while his distinctive appearance earned him the nickname dracula, his charisma earned him fans far beyond snooker. applause

in 1978, he won his sixth world title at the age of 45 to become the oldest ever world champion. his popularity was undimmed. in the summer, he entertained at holiday camps, taking on stars like ian basson before finally his powers began to wane. his last world final coming in 1982 when he was beaten by alex higgins. but it his influence didn't end there. in 2004 he became a mental to ronnie o'sullivan, helping him to the world title, a tribute to reardon�*s wants as well as his wisdom. —— his warmth. when we met up, it was fantastic, went to shake hands and i disregarded his arm and gave him a hug and that is how the relationship went. and that endearing nature earned him enduring affection,

a man whose impact on his sport has few equals. let's bring you some reaction to his death. fellow welshman mark williams, himself a three—time world champion, led the tributes. he said... and jimmy white had this to say... ray reardon who has died today at the age of 91. tadej pogacar is one stage away from taking the yellowjersey at the tour de france and becoming the first rider since 1998 to win both the giro d'italia and the tour

in the same year. he leads the race by more than five minutes after winning stage 20 and nowjust needs to make it through the final time trial tomorrow. drew savage reports. all smiles at the start, and why not? tadej pogacar has made sure it is his race to lose. he has got up such elitism is certain to win his third tour de france. the race will end on the cote d'azur, no traditional ceremonial stage in paris because of the olympics, so the tour to date began in the city where the race will end tomorrow with a time trial which was nice. the mountains beckoned for mark cavendish, he would make itjust inside the time cut for a record—breaking stage winner who will now complete what is likely to be his last tour. stage 20 didn't see the attacking pogacar is one of the greats but he has taken on and beaten all comers over the last three weeks. jonas vingegaard has

made the race despite not being fully fit. he tested pogacar but the slovenian came out on top once again. it has been his year, a fifth stage when, five minutes ahead in the standings and a third yellow jersey awaits. the drive to increase diversity of football match officials is picking up momentum ahead of a key conference at anfield tomorrow. bamref, an organisation that supports officials from black, asian and mixed heritage communities, will meet for the third year running. history was made in march when sunny singh gill became the first british asian referee to officiate in the english top flight. however, the organisation says more needs to be done to recruit the next generation of referees from diverse backgrounds. it is clear there is an underrepresentation and if you look at the professional game, there are about 45% of players in the premier league who are from black, asian and mixed heritage backgrounds and why is that not the case with referees?

there are about 37,000 referees in the country, about 3500 are from black, asian and mixed heritage backgrounds which shows there are referees in the system so why are they not make it through to the top level? at the questions have to be asked because these referees are making big sacrifices. the asked because these referees are making big sacrifices.— making big sacrifices. the core messaue making big sacrifices. the core message is _ making big sacrifices. the core message is we _ making big sacrifices. the core message is we want _ making big sacrifices. the core message is we want to - making big sacrifices. the core message is we want to ensure | message is we want to ensure referees — message is we want to ensure referees are inclusive of the representation of the country's population and that is the core target — population and that is the core target. refereeing isn't always seen as an _ target. refereeing isn't always seen as an opportunity and we are trying to change _ as an opportunity and we are trying to change that. we have a scheme that is_ to change that. we have a scheme that is looking to have an opportunity for people that historically haven't been targeted but that _ historically haven't been targeted but that are targeted now so that we can increase the representation from black, _ can increase the representation from black. asian— can increase the representation from black, asian and mixed heritage populations. the paris olympics

through here as they travel to paris tjy through here as they travel to paris by train and as sustainably as possible. tomorrow's leg of the cycle is the final one through the uk before we catch the ferry from newhaven. before we go, time to update you on the golf. the third day of the open is drawing to a close and dreadful conditions have affected the leaderboard quite dramatically. at the beginning of the day, shane lowry, the irishman, was on seven under and he has dropped right down to two under and it is dan brown, the qualifier, leading on six under. you can keep up—to—date on that across the bbc. that is it from sportsday. thanks for watching. hello. we have some big contrasts in our weather right now. on the one hand, across many eastern parts of the uk it's dry, but further west it's cloudy. we've had the outbreaks of rain

for quite some time now and that's how it's going to stay through the course of the evening. also quite humid in a number of areas. now here's the satellite picture with the radar superimposed and you can see the outbreaks of rain here, the dark blue colours indicating the heavier rain in south—western areas, through the irish sea, just about clearing northern ireland at this stage, but wet in the western isles. further east, it's dry. now, let's have a look at the picture around nine o'clock. so by this stage, most of the rain actually in the south will have fizzled out, although we have a few showers dotted around. dry in the extreme south east, east anglia, most of lincolnshire. the thick cloud with the persistent rain is from around about the lake district northwards into the lowlands of scotland, much of scotland, in fact, and all the way into the northern isles. but at this stage you can see clearer skies already in the outer hebrides. and much fresher here 13, degrees, whereas many other eastern parts of the uk still 23. now, the forecast for tonight shows that heavier rain moving away to the north, it sort of fizzles out, evaporates really in the south. and then we're left with a cloudy, muggy morning for many of us in the east.

17 in hull, about that in london. out towards the west, it's a fresher start with some sunshine. and i think overall, sunday is not looking bad at all. there'll be sunshine in the morning in many areas, but then the clouds will bubble up. could be a few showers scattered across england and wales, scotland too, perhaps layers of thicker cloud in northern ireland earlier on as this weather front brushes ireland here. and the temperatures — 18 in the north tomorrow, about 23 in london, and we'll start to lose some of that humidity. now, early next week, still a few weather fronts to get through. they're coming off the atlantic. the winds are mostly from the west, so they're still pretty warm. still a fair amount of humidity in the air, moisture, but really quite brisk winds, especially around some of these coasts. most of the rain will probably be further north, i think further south it's cloudy rather than wet and certainly some sunshine around. temperatures, 24 degrees expected in hull. ok, let's have a look at the outlook then. it's a bit of a mixed bag, but if you look at the temperatures,

they're actually pretty much bang on where they should be this time of the year and actually into the weekend and the following week, it's starting to settle down.

live from london, this is bbc news. israeli fighterjets strike houthi military targets in yemen, in response to hundreds of attacks on israel in recent months.
