in. one recent of these early as the players will get clear plans and guidelines about where they need to become july and they will have to go away and work hard. they will do that and it is a group who are so determined to win this tournament. they know everyday matters now. there will be fresh faces in this squad. four players making theatre debut including the striker, nikita paris and the manchester city team—mate demi stokes. stokes was u nfortu nate to team—mate demi stokes. stokes was unfortunate to have missed out on selection for the world cup two yea rs selection for the world cup two years ago after she played a number of the qualifiers. she told me of her excitement and relief at getting the e—mail confirming she was in the squad. i was up really early and can scroll with him but we were not allowed to say too much. it was a case of the uk at the e—mail? it did have to be quiet, but now my family will be over the moon. it is

unprecedented to name a squad this far away from the tournament but the players i spoke to said the decision gives them a lot of security, especially those who are returning from long—term injury. 0ne especially those who are returning from long—term injury. one of those is the chelsea striker, but she will have plenty of time to focus on her fitness. it is three and half months until the tournament gets underway when they take on scotland on the 19th ofjuly. scotland would him their squad until much closer to the tournament. their coach will step down after the summer and shelley ca re down after the summer and shelley care is taken over. kerr, a former boss of arsenal ladies, became the first female manager in british men's senior football when she took charge of stirling university in 2014, she'll succeed anna signneul after the euros have ended. celtic manager brendan rodgers says he's super ambitious for further success as the club, a day after celtic clinched the scottish premiership title with eight games to go in his first season in charge. a league and cup treble remains on the cards and rodgers wants to carry that from into europe. we have to finish this season as

on the verge of winning one of women's golf major tournaments, she was penalised in herfinal round after a tv viewer spotted an infringement the previous day. 0ur sports correspondent, andy swiss, reports. just imagine it. you are on course for the winner of your life, just a few homes from glory but lexi thompson's dream was about to become a nightmare. the reason, this moment from her previous round. look closely, she marks a ball, picks it up closely, she marks a ball, picks it up and then puts it down in a fractionally different place, which is against the rules. no one noticed at the time but a tv viewer spotted it, alerted officials who then interrupted her final round to give her a four shot penalty. is this a joke? no, it is not. that is ridiculous. thomson was in tears.

instead of two shots ahead she was to be had. this belief shared by the watching tiger woods the immediately tweeted, viewers at home should not be officials wearing stripes. let's go lexie, when this thing anyway. she came remarkably close. she battled back and on the final hole at this putt to win. agonisingly, victory slipped away. all because of that one eagle eyed deer. victory slipped away. all because of that one eagle eyed deerlj victory slipped away. all because of that one eagle eyed deer. i wasn't expecting that on which every hole that was. i did not intentionally do that. to the officials or whoever called in, that was not my purpose. ididn't called in, that was not my purpose. i didn't even realise they did that. thomson later thanked fans for helping her through. golf is no stranger to trial by television but its results are rarely this painful. earlier, our golf correspondent iain carter gave his assessment of what had happened. there are so many different ways of

monitoring what is going on on the golf course, it is the responsibility of a playing partner to make sure the rooms are obeyed. there are referees on the course, the referees watching video evidence and yet there is still room for a television viewer watching it on delay to then have their say and force the kind of enquiry that we saw, which makes it very cumbersome for the administration of the game and, asi for the administration of the game and, as i say, the ultimate situation is that golf has been held up situation is that golf has been held up to ridicule, even though the red decision was ultimately made. the new cricket season gets underway on friday with the opening round of county championship matches. despite a thrilling climax to the competition last year that saw middlesex crowned champions on the last afternoon, much of the pre—season talk has been about a new look t20 competition from 2020 featuring eight franchised teams. although some counties are likely to lose out as a result, most within the game agree the new tournament is needed. the 2020 format doesn't need a bit

ofa the 2020 format doesn't need a bit of a shake—up in this country. if you look around the world there are phenomenally good t20 franchise leagues around the world and it is ironic that england was the founder of the game is a little bit behind in that sense. it is only going to add it. there will be a lot of teams who will be interested in our players because of the strength that we have. it is not good for the county and the way they are looking at a behind the way they are looking at a behind the scenes before us as individuals and players it is an opportunity to put ourselves of their on a wider scale of international cricket. push ourselves forward and go higher. that's all from sportsday. there'll be more sport here on bbc news throughout the evening. it is coming up to a quarter to

and will remain so until tomorrow, which plunged st petersburg into powerful gridlock. it must be said some of the drivers are volunteering to help others reach the places they are going. also, is it not confirmed, we know prime minister dmitry medvedev, has been suggesting this is a terror attack, has that been confirmed? they are at various stages of naming this a terror attack. the investigative committee has lost an investigation concerning the act of terror. the statement by prime minister is probably less formal. he posted on facebook saying he expresses his condolences to the victim of the terror attack, but none of the officials have actually spoken firmly, colin is an act of terror. it has to be said, this took place just after lunchtime. the casualty rate could have
