the clues were there, watch serena williams‘ served in a doubles match yesterday, the power which defines her has gone. after she chose not to carry her bag from court for fear of aggravating the injury which has ended her tournament.” aggravating the injury which has ended her tournament. i have never had this before, this is one of the things i was telling my team, i‘ve never felt this in things i was telling my team, i‘ve neverfelt this in my life, this is so neverfelt this in my life, this is so painful. so i don‘t really know how to manage it yet, sadly when you do have an injury that you are bad before, you can kind of manage it, andi before, you can kind of manage it, and i have pretty much had every injury in the book, but this is a little different. this was the first grand slam event serena has played in since she beat venus in the australian open final last year, the 23rd grand slam title, perhaps most

remarkable — she was pregnant at the time. she gave birth to a daughter last yard hope to play in the aussie open, but you have to pull out after a blood clot. —— she gave birth to a daughter last year and hopes to play in the australian open. she was due to play maria sharapova today, the nearest she has had to a rival who is not a relation. it is very difficult, because i love playing maria, a match i always get up for, the game matches so well against mine, i have given up so much to be here, you know, there is times i am on the court, i am practising, i look on the monitor, i see my daughter, she is playing, i want to be there, but these are the sacrifices you have to make to live out your dream. serena will be 37 in

september. she has won all that is to win, and this will test the strength of her addiction to victory. on her instagram she wrote, i have done a lot of fighting, and this is just the i have done a lot of fighting, and this isjust the beginning. patrick gearey, bbc news. russell fuller, our tennis correspondent, is in paris. he says she faces a race to be fit now for wimbledon. there had been no indication at all that this news was coming, serena williams, playing with her sister venus, had lost the deciding set of their doubles match on sunday afternoon, but she had been playing so afternoon, but she had been playing so well in the first week that they we re very so well in the first week that they were very high hopes about this match and the quality of it, but it seems that the number of matches she played as caught up with, six matches in six in both singles and doubles, compared to just four matches in either singles or doubles in the previous 16 months. an injury toa in the previous 16 months. an injury to a pectoral muscle is often associated with overuse, and perhaps it was a case of a body not being ready for this amount of tennis so

soon. what does it mean for wimbledon? the results of the mri scan which will take place on tuesday will be crucial. if it is not serious, recovery could be swift, and williams won‘t mind not playing a grass court warm up event before wimbledon, she has only done it twice in her career, and there are still four weeks to go. that withdrawal wasn‘t the only surprise on day nine, with the second seed and australian open champion caroline wozniacki out. she was beaten by the young russian daria kasatkina, a former junior champion at roland garros. their match was held over from last night, and kasatkina quickly wrapped it up in straight sets. no problem for rafa nadal, as if their would be on his favoured surface, clay. that iith french open title a step closer, he‘s into the quarterfinals with a straight—sets win over germany‘s maximilian marterer, the celebrations continuing for nadal after celebrating his 32nd birthday yesterday. england leave for the world cup in eight days‘ time.

today gareth southgate gave his biggest indication yet that goalkeeperjordan pickford will be his first choice in in russia. the everton keeper has been given the number one jersey following the release of today‘s squad numbers. the team play costa rica on thursday at elland road before departing for russia next tuesday. that said, you can‘t read too much into the numbers. the last time that england started a world cup game with squad numbers one to ii on the field was 1970. you can see the whole i to 23 on the bbc sport website. forget one to ii, leroy sane hasn‘t been given a shirt number at all. the manchester city forward omitted from the germany sqaud altogether, despite his efforts in manchester city‘s record—breaking season. he scored ten goals and was awarded with the pfa young player of the season award. but the germany coachjoachim low finding no place for him in his 23—man squad.

the german fa wasting no time in removing his face from advertisments promoting their participation in the world cup. his omission clearly so much of a surprise it‘s caught them out. there is room, though, for manuel neuer, who‘s included despite playing for the first time in 252 days on saturday after recovering from injury. germany‘s number one will captain the side as the world champions aim to win back to back world cups. in the latest of our previews, joe lynskey‘s been taking a closer look at their squad. germany have made plenty of world cup memories down the years, but their record in major tournaments this century has been particularly outstanding. since 2006, in every world cup or european championship, they have made the semifinals are

better, culminating in a world cup triumph in brazil four years better, culminating in a world cup triumph in brazilfour years ago, beating argentina i—0 triumph in brazilfour years ago, beating argentina 1—0 in the final to seal their fourth title, and that camea to seal their fourth title, and that came a few days after that famous 7-1 came a few days after that famous 7—1 defeat of the hosts in the last four. when germany won that world cup, they did it with a batch of young players who had come through together in the domestic league. many thought that the collective could dominate world football for the next decade or so. today we have got a sense of how the team has progressed even further, with this man, leroy sane, such a creative force in manchester city‘s premier league title winning campaign this season, missing out on a place in the squad altogether. mario gotze has not made the cut, despite scoring the winning goal in the world cup final in rio, and you can see some of the names you will be going. manuel neuer will join see some of the names you will be going. manuel neuer willjoin them, despite missing nine months of the season with injury. to get a sense of where germany are at, let‘s speak

to raphael from radio 5 live, our german football expert. we mentioned this new blood of players coming through into this team, do you see them as being stronger at this world cup? difficult to make the argument that they are necessarily stronger, because you are missing some of the experience of philipp lahm, bastian schweinsteiger, per mertesacker. this is a younger team, but there is excitement, marco reus, timo werner accommodation offer something different for germany upfront, they haven‘t had that kind of striker in recent yea rs. haven‘t had that kind of striker in recent years. butjoachim loew has good headaches. i guess you mentioned they have now lost bastian schweinsteiger and some of the experienced players, but they still have one person within the ranks of as tournament experience, joachim loew, what does he bring to the team? i thinkjoachim loew,

loew, what does he bring to the team? ithinkjoachim loew, having been there for so long, has developed a kind of rapport with the players, a way of doing things that is the perfect blend between harmony and discipline. the discipline comes from the fact that as an international manager, he can push a button, and players are not even called up, so a lot of power, unlike in club football, he can really decide what kind of teeny ones, what type of player he once, both in terms of playing style but also in terms of playing style but also in terms of playing style but also in terms of character, and he is in com plete terms of character, and he is in complete control, and he almost floats through press conferences, almost untouchable, and of course all the critics who point the finger at him and say they will never win anything with him at to bite the bullet and eat there had after he won the world cup. and now he is supremely confident in the decision—making process, and i don‘t think there is a better matchup between him and the players that he

has at his disposal. thank you for joining us, we look forward to hearing more from you during the coverage of the world cup. germany appear to have it all on paper with individual talent and a manager with a track record, and they will be among the favourites in russia. fascinating stuff from joe lynskey, an idea as to those winning ingredients which have served germany so well, and could well do so again in russia this summer. belgium have confirmed their squad today, where there is a place for sane‘s manchester city team—mate vincent kompany, who‘s been given two weeks to prove his fitness. belgium boss roberto martinez said his captain‘s leadership is crucial and will give him extra time to get over his groin injury in a bid to play at the world cup. crystal palace striker christian benteke has missed out. belgium, of course, play england in the final group g game on the 28th ofjune. the new man in charge at everton, marco silva, faced the media for the first time today, with wayne rooney‘s future among

other things, up for discussion. juliet ferrington was there. after a ban of 13 months from football for betting, joey barton is back, making his return as the new manager of fleetwood town in the third tier of english football. sean dyche, the burnley manager, acting as something of a mentor. he knew he‘d taken the job before his partner. most people don‘t get the opportunity to fulfil one dream during the course of a lifetime. i am certainly at the start of achieving the second dream, so life is fantastic at the minute, you know, it is notjust about me, there isa know, it is notjust about me, there is a bigger picture do this, and i know other managers approach at the same way — it is about building a team, it is about building a culture, a group, and if you are successful at any football club, it is multilayered, and certainly i have got to add to the great people working within the club in terms of playing staff and personnel in the

club. how much of the influence has sean dyche been? i was going to dye my hairgingerand grow sean dyche been? i was going to dye my hair ginger and grow a goatee! he was the first person, as i say, that i sounded out, even before my missus, because that is how high i value his opinion, we have got a great relationship on the pitch and off it. there you go, joey barton facing the media for the first time since taking over at fleetwood, now we can hear from the new man since taking over at fleetwood, now we can hearfrom the new man in charge at everton, who has been chatting to juliette charge at everton, who has been chatting tojuliette ferrington. standing room only at the training ground for the southern‘s presentation of new manager marco silva and director of football, and we we re silva and director of football, and we were all given these pamphlets as we were all given these pamphlets as we entered the press conference room as the club looks to build on what has already been a busy summer. huge club, huge story behind us as well, and you know the football,

everything, at the end, everything what is important is the results, but we need to do something more, to develop the players, getting the clu b develop the players, getting the club better every single day. this is our role as well, and of course i need to prove everyday that i want to stay here. the main talking point was the future of wayne rooney, with them conceding that the player could leave goodison park and is in talks with a move over to mls. this is the next step in his career, like a lot of big players do, to go to the mls, thenl of big players do, to go to the mls, then i can only say one thing, i hope that he will return when he finishes there, because i still think uses a legend at this club. view shared by the new manager, who said that he wouldn‘t be here just for one or two years, he saw this as a much bigger project. and lucy bronze will captain england

in their upcoming world cup qualifier with russia. steph houghton will miss the match as she requires surgery on a knee injury. something head coach phil neville believes is the right time to have done. she probably could have soldered onto the rush—hour game, but when you are looking at the bigger picture, we want her to be fit for the whole of next season, and we have only had for one camp, two games out of five or six, so i think the sensible thing was for her to have the operation, get into recovery, and make sure that she is back for pre—season, because when you are hopefully going into a world cup year, pre—season will make or break your season, it is important that steph comes back fully fit and ready to make the charge forward. lucy will captain the side on friday, the players look up to her, a champions league winner, multiple

winner in france, i think she is someone that is really well—respected. i have seen it for a long time in lucy, she thrives on more responsibility, and hopefully we will see that again on friday. now, what to do with £100 million of uk sport funding? that is up for discussion as part of a period of consultaion to assess whether a change in funding is needed, which would see a greater spread given to a wider selection of sports instead of those who only have genuine medal chances at elite level. katherine grainger is the chair of uk sport. i don‘t feel necessarily under pressure to change, we all feel it is right to be listening and hearing what the biggest issues out there are, and if we have got it right, because to date, you know, uk sport‘s remit is to create inspirational success through olympic and paralympic medals, and we have done that, and had more

success than ever before at the last two olympics and paralympics, and that has been fantastic, and it is now time to sort of balls and go, is this still the way it needs to be, what the public want? then great, it is working, but almost our responsibility is to go, is that still the journey we should take? that is the question for the public. katherine grainger, the head of uk sport. now to grassroots level, there are attempts today to boost there are attempts today to boost the numbers and support given to coachesin the numbers and support given to coaches in the uk, driving it forward isjudy murray, who knows only too well what is required to inspire the next generation. i spoke with her earlier on. todayis today is the first day of the first—ever coaching week, an opportunity to recognise all the great coaching and coaches that are out there, who make things happen for others. i mean, so often you hear about the great coaches who

work at the top end of the game, which is where all the profile is, and the big bucks, but often it is those who work out at entry—level, who create an environment that is fun and stem elating and engaging. and it gets people involved, and it keeps people involved, because you as the coach or teacher are the first port of call, you know, when a child takes up an activity, and how you present yourself and communicate and organise the content, equipment also that you use, that can be the determining factor of whether somebody keeps coming back, so i am hugely appreciative of all the people who volunteer their time to create opportunities in sport for others. you know, we are becoming a nation that has a problem with obesity and inactivity, so it is more important than ever that we get more important than ever that we get more people involved and recognise and appreciate those who are already doing it. having coached quite a bit yourself, are their coaches working

outside of tennis that you particularly admired? the one that springs to mind is tracey neville, england netball, at the commonwealth games, and what i remember about the aftermath of that was she putting a tweet out with a picture of her with their teachers and her club coaches who had got her started when she was a little girl, they had fostered her love of it, created a stimulating environment for her, and she and becoming an incredibly successful coach yourself, but she was recognising the people who got started, and i love that, that was everything i believed in. judy murray speaking to us earlier. and we finish tonight with a piece of cricketing history. 25 years to the day when shane warne produced what has been referred to as the ball of the century.
