thrilling and there was more excitement to come. lindbergh had held the leads in the opening round. could she hold her nerve when it mattered most. chance came and went to them both when play resumed. but with an eighth play—off hole looming, and neither could find a winning putt. eventually was the swedish woman who grewjuice is a moment of magic. this putt putting all the pressure on park. —— woman who produced a moment of magic. champion here in 2013, park came close to extending the contest but could not follow suit. the lindbergh victory here is the dreams are filled. ranked 95th in the world before this tournament, few would have fancied her chance of. yesterday i just felt that this is mind. thati yesterday i just felt that this is mind. that i can do this. i knew i

their team had received a biderman injection. 0rganisers are investigating if these syringes belonged to the team and whether any rules were broken. we have this preview of what is in store from the gold coast. there maybe two to go but already at the athletes‘ village the games have had its first handle. after syringes were found there by a trainer. it is not known yet what they contained. it has threatened to ta ke they contained. it has threatened to take the shine off the city‘s moment in the sun. the gold coast wants the game to sell the lure of its endless sand and surf. 0ver £1 billion has been spent to do that. but much of it on grades and rebuild rather than brand—new stadiums. it on grades and rebuild rather than brand-new stadiums. the question we had, do we need an 80,000 seat stadium? we will never need one here. so we have taken an existing afl stadium with 25,000 seat, we have filled in one end, got 40,000 seats. they are used to big budget

productions here. the pirates of the caribbean and other films fell here. but the films that have now been put away for squash boxes and table tennis on the biggest soundstage in the southern hemisphere. tennis on the biggest soundstage in the southern hemispherem tennis on the biggest soundstage in the southern hemisphere. it is money well spent question or click the. you. without a doubt. first regional city to ever host the commonwealth games so hopefully the world will see what a great place it is and we will do a good job. the image that the gold coast wants the world to see on these games is of a sunkissed laid—back city right investment. underpinning all of this is a massive security operation for the biggest event on australian soil in a decade. 1.5 million spectators are all going to be under the surveillance of cctv is a is that uses surveillance of cctv is a is that uses facial recognition technology. looking out for anyone known to be ona looking out for anyone known to be on a terror watch list. most here

are keen to keep their focus on the sport. cladistic athlete there will bea sport. cladistic athlete there will be a home games. he represent england grew up on the gold coast and sees it as a natural host city. the lifestyle is different. you get grandparents running up and down the beach every morning. where else can you do that? australia‘s inherent love of every sport has been tested bya love of every sport has been tested by a late night —— tested of late by its cricketers. they hope they can find some new heroes here on the gold coast. 0nto football now and an iranian side sealed place in the last 16 of the afc. the host opens the scoring in the fourth minute. daria is earned a controversial penalty 11 minutes after the

here‘s an entertainer. i don‘t know how he does these finishes... if i tried to finish i would probably hit a tree that he is able to get it out and do these wonderful finishes. 0ut of the trees and stuff like that. you know... coming back, talking about how, when he came back the first two times and he was not ready. is short name was struggling. his short game is his game did it obviously his drive is not the greatest once he is on the fairway it is unbelievable and if he does not then... everybody likes to see a big flop shot and no—one likes to see a little chip shot put he does those big flop shots and hold those big long putts and makes things exciting. so that is my take on tiger woods. he is going to win. at some point i think that is clear to

everyone when they see the way he plays and continues to get better. it is great for the game to have him back. i think you can see the tiger affect in the tournament he has been at. is great for golf. some of these kids who are participating on sunday, yesterday, they never got to see tiger woods, the tiger that we got to see. so for him to be healthy, as a friend you want him healthy, as a friend you want him healthy and as a competitor you want him healthy. so, yes, nothing but great things when he is healthy. that promises to be an exciting competition. 0nto cricket and australia on the brink of losing the fourth test in africa ran with it a series. the ball tampering scandal has overshadowed what has been a dominant performance by the home side in johannesburg. australia dominant performance by the home side injohannesburg. australia was fed a 612 to level the series and avoid theirfirst fed a 612 to level the series and avoid their first loss to south africa in almost 50 years. the south

usual address. thank you for watching and we will see you again soon. hello there. well, it‘s certainly been a fairly unsettled easter break, and for some parts of the country, quite a wintry one too. we‘ve still got some snow lingering, across parts of scotland in particular. lingering, across parts here was the scene on easter monday in colchester, in essex. so cloudy conditions, we‘ve had outbreaks of showery rain around too. now, through the next few days, things are turning much milder across southern parts of the country. still chilly and wintry in the north, and that unsettled theme continues with sunshine and showers. but what we are seeing is this milder air, the yellow colours, pushing north across the country. still holding onto the colder air across parts of scotland in particular. so for tuesday morning, your morning commute back to work, it will be snowing still across northern scotland, north of the central belt.

towards the southern uplands, it will be turning back to rain through the course of the morning, but that snow in central scotland still causing problems. it will ease away through the morning. further south, those showers moving in across england, wales and northern ireland, followed by more sunshine, and actually, in the sunny spells across the afternoon, temperatures of 14 and 15 degrees. it will look much colder under the snowfall across parts of scotland. that snowfall will invigorate once again, so further heavy snow as we head through tuesday night into the early hours of wednesday. but further south it‘s another fairly mild night to come, with further bursts of showery rain across england, wales and northern ireland. eventually that snow across the north of scotland will ease away, later on on wednesday, turning back to rain, particularly at lower levels further south. heavy rain, showers and thunderstorms rolling in across england and wales, though, although in the brightest spells we‘ll see temperatures up to around 13 degrees or so. it still will be colder in the north. looking through from the midweek onwards, we‘ll be seeing low pressure just starting to drift away towards the east, and a ridge of higher pressure building. so, as we look further ahead, into thursday, it will probably be the best day of the week in terms

of lots of dry and bright weather, with some sunshine on offer, and a lot less cold than it has been recently. so temperatures between around about seven to nine in the north, still fairly cool here. around 13 further south, it will feel quite nice. during thursday evening and overnight into friday, another area of milder air moves in. you can also see some fairly strong winds here. so heading on into friday, we are likely to see a little bit of rain heading on into the west, with the brisk winds around, as well. further east across the country, though, we keep the drier and the brighter spell in the weather, as well. so, with the southerly winds in the sunshine, we could well see 16 degrees also on friday. that milder theme continues on into the weekend, so by saturday, one or two areas at about 17, possibly 18 degrees. still a few showers on the cards. bye for now. welcome to bbc news — broadcasting to viewers in north america and around the globe. i‘m mike embley. our top stories — president ramaphosa of south africa leads tributes to winnie mandela — the anti—apartheid campaigner
