you're live at the bbc sport centre. this is sport today, with me, chris mitchell. coming upforyou: grand hall entrance. england's georgia hall has her hands on her first major, the british open. six of the best. the netherlands thrash ireland and they're world cup winners again. and marta bastianelli wins gold on the road at the european championships. england's georgia hall has won the women's british open. hall, who's just 22 years old, beat thailand's pornanong phatlum by two shots. phatlum had led for most of the weekend but a double bogey at the 17th ended her hopes and helped hall to her first major title. colm harrison has the story. this is the trophy they were all playing for on the lancashire coast, and the woman who started the final

round in pole position to win it was pornanong phatlum from thailand. she'd lead for the previous two days and continued her quest for a first major title with four birdies in her first six holes on sunday. a straight key shot at the eighth lead to just straight key shot at the eighth lead tojust her straight key shot at the eighth lead to just her second bogey of the week. phatlum was still in charge. her nearest challenger was georgia hall, she had been for much of the previous two rounds. the 22—year—old englishwoman picked up three shots ina englishwoman picked up three shots in a flawless front nine and four holes and a further birdie later found herself in a tie for the lead. no one else was in contention. south korea's reuse ocean would eventually finished third, so her weight for a third major goes on while... ended ina tie third major goes on while... ended in a tie for fourth place. this was now a two horse race in which phatlum and paul parred the 14th and birdied the 15th but when hall birdied the 16th she moved into

the lead for the first time. that put the pressure on phatlum angie cracked with a double bogey at 17. hall had a three shot lead playing the last and even had the luxury of missing the putt for par at the 18th. a par—4 phatlum meant a bogey for hall was more than enough to secure the title and become only the third home winner of the british open since it became a major. colm harrison, bbc news. i try to say is so focused for the last few days, kept the emotions, maybe they will come out tomorrow morning that tried to stay. how did your dad keep together? did he say anything to you at the 16th, it was anything to you at the 16th, it was a big moment when you went three ahead, or coming up18, a big moment when you went three ahead, or coming up 18, were there any words from him? no, we kind of carried on with our own game like it was a practice round. i was quite nervous and i think he was too but we didn't really say anything to each other, we tried to get the job

done, as they say, and he was amazing this week. i'm very glad i kept it together. she was born on the friday that masters tournament when nick faldo we nt masters tournament when nick faldo went on to beat greg norman so famously, that's why she got the name georgia, from her father, wayne. i've been chatting to him since the victory, he said there we re two since the victory, he said there were two things he had to do as a caddie, one was showing no emotion whatsoever, he wasn't allowed to smile, she had to stay in the present and keep her emotions neutral. the other thing he wasn't allowed to change his socks, there was so allowed to change his socks, there was so much superstition, she got off to such a good start, he she said that couldn't change his socks. they stink now but he wasn't allowed to change them. he can get some new ones from her now! justin thomas has won the bridgstone invitational. thomas finished on 15—under par to win by four shots from kyle sta nley. solid if unspectacular golf was enough for thomas.

he birdied the second to increase his lead and although he bogeyed the sixth. another birdie here at the 13th kept him comfortably in front. challenges from ian poulter, rory mcilroy and jason day never materialised, but dustinjohnson threatened something spectacular, the world number one finding six birdies on the front nine carding a 6—under par round to finish tied third. tiger woods, a winner here eight times fluffed his lines, out of contention from the start of the last day he faded to finish even par. so sunday was justin's day, picking up his third pga tour title this season and peaking just in time for the defence of his pga title next week. the netherlands have won the women's hockey world cup. the defending champions thrashed surpise finalists ireland, the second lowest ranked side in the tournament, 6-0.

the biggest winning margin for a world cup final. we were always in control. the irish tea m we were always in control. the irish team were really good, though. but i think from the moment we score the goal it was kind of a relief for us and we started playing our game, and we played really good and we show the world what we're capable of. you must have been surprised to have been meeting island in the final? ididn't been meeting island in the final? i didn't expect that before the tournament, but they obviously did really good and they deserve to be in the finaland really good and they deserve to be in the final and it's really cool for a nation whose never been in the final to be their. my condiments to ireland, they did really good in the tournament, and the environment, the ambience they bring, it's amazing —— compliments. you defended your world title, european champions as well, another great day for dutch hockey? we're a another great day for dutch hockey? we' re a really another great day for dutch hockey? we're a really good team, we've trained really hard for it and, yeah, wejust trained really hard for it and, yeah, we just want to show everybody what we can do. a big learning curve today i think,

maybe a step too far against an outstanding side, an outstanding side who have world—class players, three or four world—class players after the last number of years but we can be so proud. to stand here and say we came second in the world is an incredible achievement. and the girls, i think when they reflect back, obviously a bit of disappointment today, but when they reflect back in a few weeks they will think what an astonishing achievement because we work hard today. -- we worked hard today. britain's cyclist laura kenny won her second gold medal of the european championships in the velodrome with victory in the women's elimination race on sunday. elsewhere, italy's former world champion marta bastianelli won european gold in the women's road race. from glasgow, here's our sports correspondentjoe wilson. go is defined by the river that runs through the middle of it, this is the clyde, once a busy industrial

come through the week. slowly we start to lose the heat. it will feel fresher for all of us, an increasing chance of seeing some showers and also still some sunshine, and it's sunshine we'll continue to see for much of england and wales on monday underneath this area of high pressure. meanwhile, for scotland and northern ireland, these fronts will continue to bring more cloud, and also some outbreaks of rain. but slowly it will ease through monday and become increasingly more patchy, maybe a little bit of rain possibly get into the far north of england through the afternoon. equally some breaks of cloud in eastern scotland. after we've lost the mist and low cloud on the western coast, lots of sunshine for england and wales, feeling warm, with 31 or 32 possible in east anglia and south—east england. still 23 celsius for eastern parts of scotland in the best of the sunshine. through tomorrow evening, for most it will be dry with clear skies again for england and wales, before mist and low cloud reforms on western coasts. still a zone of cloud from scotland to northern england could produce a bit of drizzle at times. temperatures dropping to between 12 and 16 celsius in many areas, 17 or 18 maybe still in south—east england. we still have the front

going from monday into tuesday. it's a weakening feature as it slips south and east. still a band of cloud stretching from scotland down into parts of wales and south—east england. and it's a dividing line really between the fresher air behind it and still holding onto the heat and warmth further south and east. tuesday will be the last hot day that we see for some time across south—east england. you've still have that zone of cloud, as i mentioned, stretching down from scotland into wales and that could bring patchy rain for a time on tuesday. but it will fizzle out and actually by tuesday afternoon, most areas will become largely dry with sunshine. temperatures still exceeding 30 celsius across east anglia and south—east england. the fresher feel further north and west, but it is the last of the hot days. actually through tuesday evening, we could well see some thunderstorms developing across eastern and southern england. as they start to clear away, we'll all be in something fresher as we go into wednesday and thursday. certainly the case across much of scotland, northern ireland

and northern england. still some showers around here through wednesday and thursday. but notice the drop in temperature further south and east. many places still dry with an increasing chance that some of us could see some showers. goodbye. welcome to bbc news, broadcasting to viewers in north america and around the globe. my name is nkem ifejika. our top stories: another devastating ea rthqauke hits the indonesian island of lombok — more than 80 people are killed — the rescue operation hampered by power cuts. venezuela's president blames the ultra right for an alleged assasination attempt on his life — security forces say six people have been arrested. more are expected. a vintage plane crashes into the swiss alps — 20 people are confirmed dead — the world war two craft was on a sightseeing trip. police in chicago plan more patrols following a deadly weekend of shootings — much of it linked to gang violence. and thousands of firefighers continue their battle
