major, now five years since his last major, but this was an opening round that laid a solid foundation. verities on the back nine have been three under par, just to offer leaders. with him on the british chart is a terrible happen, after his ryder cup cameo last year, he said listed the top of europe champion. one of his clubs is inscribed with liverpool. in and he flipped it when i do, but still in touch with day when leaders, the american ricky fowler is been top three at all the majors, but never champion. his five under par could bea champion. his five under par could be a start for a changing things. but on the biggest stage, strange things can happen. this is phil mickelson, five—time champion missing from a foot. to master the elements, he cannot forget the basics. condition still remain pretty good for the afternoon started as the greens might get a little tricky though, as the day goes on, that might affect tiger woods, you got

there already a part of the first game and came close to burning it found trouble on the second and by having his way up the second hole and a reminder the defending champion brooks capa after a brilliant start brady in the first and he's one under par through two holes. thank you. next to the women's world cup where australia came from behind to beat brazil in montpellier, in one of the games of the tournament so far. brazil — who won their first match — took the lead from the spot and then went two up after this header from christiane — her fourth goal of the world cup. australia got one backjust before the break and then levelled the match with this shot from chloe logarzo. and then thanks, once again to var, this own goal from hickmann alves was awarded, despite the australian forward being offside, to give the matildas the lead. they go level with brazil and italy at the top of group c. meanwhile china have their first

win of the tournament, after a narrow win over south africa in group b. the only goal of the game in paris came five minutes before half time, when li managed to turn in that cross from zhang rui's. china will now face spain on the final matchday, whilst its two straight defeats for south africa. this result means germany, who are top of the group, are the first team to make it into the last 16. england face argentina in their second match in group d tomorrow night, looking to continue their momentum from the 2—1 win over scotland in their opening game. victory for phil neville‘s side would take them to the brink of the knockout stages. what you have got with this game is the football history and rivalry, andi the football history and rivalry, and i think that's what we have to handle tomorrow, we have quality and they had number ten who is a

fantastic player, with most writing teens in the 20 years had a special number ten, so it's not the similarity, but if you watch them play, they play like south american teens, and when the draw was made, the scotland argentina game were games where you thought we have to handle the occasion as well as the game and the emotion of the game and rivalry and this is another one where we have to handle that kind of emotion. scotland may have lost to england on sunday, but head coach shelley kerr says she wants them to build on their good second half performance in that game. they face another tough test tomorrow when they face japan, who drew with argentina in their opening match. i think ithink our i think our expectations are still the same. the target hasn't changed for us, i would still like to get out of the grip, and it's a different type of game. we are going to face a very competent japanese tea m to face a very competent japanese team that are technically very good players, professional and both

a fitness test before play. joss buttler‘s available again after recovering from bruising. england are currently fourth in the table with four points. england's women managed to dodge the rain for long enough to seal a 3—0 series win over the west indies in chelmsford england made 258 for four in a match reduced to 39 overs a side. sarah taylor and amyjones each made half centuries. tammi beaumont chipped in with 46. west indies chased an adjusted target of 267 to win but they fell way short finishing on 131 for 9. hull fc are keeping up the pressure at the top of rugby leagu's super league with a 31—18 victory over castleford tigers. hull were ten points behind at half time, but stormed back in the second half thanks largely to a hat trick from albert kelly. they're now up to third in the table. that's all from sportsday. stay with us if you can, coming up in a moment, the papers. bye for now.

hello and welcome to our look ahead to what the the papers will be bringing us tomorrow. with me are dawn foster, columnist at the guardian and lucy fisher, defence correspondent at the times. many of tomorrow's front pages are already in. the metro suggests that borisjohnson is on the verge of becoming prime minister after he beat his rivals in the first round of tory leadership votes today. the ft also leads on borisjohnson‘s victory claiming he has won support from across the tory brexit divide, polling more votes than the next three contenders combined. the daily telegraph reports on comments from borisjohnson‘s supporters who have called on "vanity candidates" to drop out of the tory leadership race to speed up the process of selecting

the next prime minister. one foot in number ten is the headline from the daily mail that says borisjohnson‘s rivals are now scrambling together to sabotage his coronation. the times claims borisjohnson is under ‘intense pressure‘ to debate with his rivals for the tory leadership on television after all the other candidates agreed to take part. the guardian pictures the tanker front altair on fire in the gulf of oman today — the united states has blamed iran for the suspected assault on two oil tankers. and the mirror leads with the tv licence backlash after a string of bbc stars demand that plans to scrap free tv licences for over—75s are ditched. so not a surprise that boris johnson is dominating the headlines tomorrow morning. surprised in a way considering he's been the least vocal so far. yes, everybody else for the past two weeks prior to the official onto the campaign has been all over the all
