ian poulter‘s surprise would lead british interests. two shots ahead of him the americans dog we are to the top. brooks koepka keeping up his momentum. jordan spieth, a man used to leading the way. it is a really good start and i know that even par would be as good or better than the score today, so important to get red numbers today. the late charge came from another englishman. paul casey goes in one shot behind the leaders. forehead while it looked like one former champion would be of the running. rory mcilroy tiled to five over par but he too thrives beneath the grandstands and four birthdays pulled it back. so hard when you see good stuff in practice but the last
10:34 pm
two calls it came together better andl two calls it came together better and i can bring those feelings from those last 12 into the rest of the week. kind conditions saw michael roy stay in contention but links golf will be its brutal best tomorrow. wind and rain expected. so this is how it stands at the end of day one. spieth, koepka and kuchar on five under, one ahead of casey and south africa's former masters champion schwartzel. mcilroy and justin rose are six off the lead but it was a miserable day for local boy tommy fleetwood, many people's tip for the title but he slumped to a six over 76. so fleetwood and the rest of the field will be at the mercy of the weather tomorrow — and it could get interesting as the bbc forecaster philip avery can tell us. the weather on day one of the open seems to give some of the players a relatively easy ride. whether you're playing spectating on day two it looks as though friday will be a
10:35 pm
real test throughout the day and for those who sub five the car to make it into the weekend the conditions offer another test of another variety. showers from the word gaul and possibly merging together, longer spells of rain, some of its sharp but the wind will be a pleasant and the players will be playing the course and those conditions. saturday year mixture of sunny spells and showers. there won't be so spells and showers. there won't be so much wind but it will be from a different directions so i suspect the caddies will be checking yardage once again and come sunday in action of sunny spells and showers but the wonders from a different direction again. if the players want to hang around and savour the local delights, wouldn't you note, a lovely day. there's been another gold tonight for great britain at the world para athletics championships in london. hannah cockroft winning her third of the competition in the t34 400 metres. so let's go live to the london stadium — kate grey is there for us —
10:36 pm
a great night for hannah yet again kate — shejust keeps getting better? it's been a great night for hannah but also for britain, seven medals in total, two gold and the highlight has to be hannah cockroft winning her third gold of these championships. her tenth world title today and she was on the outside lane so didn't realise how far ahead she was until she got into the home straight, but she was victorious in the end with a team—mate taking the bronze, and it clearly hadn't sunk in how much she had achieved because she had been under the weather this week but was clearly unaware of how right she had achieved when she came to the interview. i didn't come into confident i would do it. i didn't really think about what it would mean at the end and ijust went through it and hope for the best, so i think through it and hope for the best, so ithinki through it and hope for the best, so i think i need to go our and think
10:37 pm
about what i need to do. i am already thinking what i need to work on and make better and i think that is what makes a champion, when you know you're not quite at your best, andi know you're not quite at your best, and i can come back and go faster. the second gold this evening went to georgie hermitage in the tees 37 400 metres. she also won an emphatic style breaking the world record as she crossed the line. she has had the really difficult season with injury and she was worried she wouldn't get the chance to compete. it is the place that inspired her to get back into running but she has managed to compete and has broken the world record and i think she was quite relieved that she won the gold when she came to the interview. obviously the year has been full and to come out and perform like that is just beyond my expectations and i am trying not to start, because it is
10:38 pm
too late. this is my one chance. it is my one chance for my 2012 moment andl is my one chance for my 2012 moment and i was coming and not in the shape i wanted to be in, so it was a bit ofan shape i wanted to be in, so it was a bit of an anti—climax and thank goodness this has happened. if that is where it ends this week then that is where it ends this week then that is where it ends this week then that is where it ends and i am happy. kate, it's been a fantastic event so far this week and there's now calls for the 2019 para—athletics to be held at the london stadium too? yes, no doubt these have been the best championships to date and that has been noted by the athletes and has been noted by the athletes and has started conversations about whether these championships could come back to london in 2019 so here's what the choate shelf london 2017 had to say about those prospects. this call has begun organically from the athletes, jonnie peacock might have started that after only gold medal, but you

have seen athletes from around the world, jason smith, the irish sprinter, greg mcintosh, they have been calling for it, so it is not that the brits want home advantage, but athletes around the world think it is the place to be, because the british audience really gets paralympic sport and it creates a fantastic atmosphere in the stadium. thank you. with three stages to go, chris froome is still favourite to win the tour de france, but his lead has been cut by four seconds after finishing fourth on stage 18. warren barguil of france won the stage. he looks set to win the ‘king of the mountains' competition. froome fought it out with his rival roman bardet at the finish and the frenchman claimed four bonus seconds for finishing third. he's now 23 seconds behind froome overall finished second on stage
