breakfrom moment today with all that hard break from the past campaigns was able to be buried. even what happened in san francisco when new zealand was so far ahead, how much sweeter if this win? absolutely. to come up against the same opponent again with that history. new zealand really never recovered from it. being on match point but then losing eight races in a row. to be able to do what they called the redemption campaign really just makes do what they called the redemption campaign reallyjust makes it all the more sweet and the skipper of the more sweet and the skipper of the return team is an australian which adds flavour that new zealanders love in their sporting context. peter burling, 26 years of age, the youngest man to lead an america's cup winning team. how crucial has he been to this victory? he really is, he is the public face to this campaign and he will be,

already, he is an olympic gold—medallist that he will be a sporting hero of a completely different proportion in new zealand and 26 years old, are cool, calm quy: and 26 years old, are cool, calm guy, never ruffled. up against one of the tough guys and the big talkingjimmy. of the tough guys and the big talking jimmy. to come through that with the odd nod and a grin, he is going to... i don't think he knows what is waiting for him when he gets back to new zealand. we seen the celebration in bermuda and how happy eve ryo ne celebration in bermuda and how happy everyone is. you talk about new zealand. how will this be taken in new zealand and how will it be celebrated when the team gets back there? it was huge. it screened early in the morning, 5am, in new zealand. there was heavy traffic getting into the cbd, we hear, in auckland. people trying to get into work early so they could watch this public viewing on a big screen. it will be probably the sporting story of the year, at least, in new

zealand. absolutely captivating the imagination that is hard to expect people who are there. the man organising next years world cup has dismissed a newspaper report that the russian squad from the 2014 world cup is under a fifa investigation for doping as "made—up news". the story is based on the 3a footballers identified in professor richard mclaren‘s 2016 report into russia's state—sponsored doping programme. but speaking to the bbc‘s mani djazmi in st petersburg alexey sorokin completely rejected the story. there seems to be some kind of bias which we occasionally see in some media but we have a very clear factual a nswers media but we have a very clear factual answers for this. doping, we do not think it is an issue, particularly with russian players. because they are tested by uefa,

fifa, in every tournament. in terms of racism, how would you regard whole stadiums in saint petersburg and cameroon during a game against australia, if i remember correctly. how is that racist? this tournament proved to be a success in many regards but in this regard in particular. all the fans‘ testimony that we read and hear are positive about the atmosphere and the welcome they received in russia and we were happy about it. serena williams has responded to john mcenroe's claims that she wouldn't be good enough to beat the men's player ranked as low as 700 in the world. the 23 time singles grand slam champion who is currently away from the court expecting her first child later this year has recently taken to twitter with the following: to boy who was asked to be crystal

palace manager. —— de boer. he has been out of coaching since november when he was sacked by the italian side afterjust 85 days in charge. claudio ranieri was presented at french ligue un side nantes on monday. the 65—year—old took a tour of the new stadium where he'll be working and believes his new team has potential and can finish higher than their seventh placing last season. nantes last won the title in 2001

but ranieri proved he can galvanise the squad, winning an improbable english premier league title with leicester in 2016 before he was sacked last season. novak djokovic has confirmed he'll have andre agassi as his coach for as long as he's still in the running at wimbledon this year. the serb is currently ranked outside the world's top three and hasn't won a major tournament since he took the french open in 2016. he spoke exclusively to the bbc‘s russell fuller. it is fantastic to have andre at the as part of my team and part of my life. he is someone that cares a lot about this sport and values in life. the character futures that he has been building and nurturing for so many years. he is trying to always emphasised the importance of knowing who you are and of trying to use those eight, nine days that we spent in roland garros aspects as record and we got to each other. —— as best

as we could. shared a lot of things. i look forward to growing in that relationship even more and we will see what awaits for us on the court. and how are you feeling about your game in general? you have been used to having so much success that we sit up and take notice when you only make the quarter—finals at roland garros. has it affected your confidence? it's normal to say that, you know, i'm not looking at my result in the last five, six months that i'm not playing at my best and unaware of that. for the first time 110w unaware of that. for the first time now ina unaware of that. for the first time now in a stretch of seven, eight months that i haven't won any big tournaments and have been struggling with the level of tennis. you know, it had to happen sooner or later and i'm really glad it did because, you know, it made me start asking myself

certain questions and seeing things that may be over the last couple of yea rs that may be over the last couple of years when i had so much success, i didn't see. i hoped it didn't come but now it has come and i now have to deal with it and figure out a way and figure out all the roles in my life and how to balance is around, a ticket back on the desired level. there was controversy before a ball was bowled in the women's cricket world cup match between defending champions australia and the west indies. windies skipper stafanie taylor had opted to bat but then changed her mind with a heated conversation between herself, australian captain meg lanning and match referee david jukes. it mattered little in the end as elyse perry starred with the ball for the aussies taking three wickets as they dismissed the west indies for 204. australia easily reached their target with 71 balls to spare thanks to 70 from beth mooney and a century from nicole bolton and lanning didn't dwell too much on what happened pre match.

ijust i just wanted to find out what was happening, to be honest. they had said to me she was going to bat so it was a bit confusing that she ended up, they ended up bowling. we would have been happy to do either, it didn't really bother us too much but there was a bit of confusion but nothing to be worried about, i wouldn't have thought. the world egg throwing championships returned to english county of lincolnshire on the weekend just gone the officials were handed titles becoming of an event like this. the day's events included egg russian roulette, where two contestants each took turns smashing half a dozen eggs against their foreheads. nick hornstein and robbie hollander broke the former egg throwing record of 76.2 metres with an 81—metre throw. the egg throwing title was taken by keen cricketers and debutants ben sudell and joe beveridge who through 50 metres. that is all we have time for today, me, thyssen —— tulsen tollett and the sport today team. there
