6:34 pm
another glorious day here on defour of the wimbledon championships there asi of the wimbledon championships there as i was saying five bricks have been an action today. all eyes falling on johanna konta been an action today. all eyes falling onjohanna konta as we know the british number one in the women's singles. huge support for her in her bed to try and reach the third round, which she did as she came through in straight sets against katharina. despite the 26 degrees heat, her game was as cool as a cucumber. there was a nervy moment for a katharina as she conceded the break and it seemed it would be the first of many. johanna konta who was serving big it was not putting a foot wrong as she breezed on to take that first
6:35 pm
step. 0ne outstanding shot after another, it was as if she was the only one not feeding the, there was a moment from the dead tech reminding us why she is the women's double champion but some fa ncy women's double champion but some fancy footwork and impressive volleys showed who was really in control on the centre court. she held her composure. she had not shaken off that slip from the first set and as johanna shaken off that slip from the first set and asjohanna konta stepped up the match again she tumbled out of the match again she tumbled out of the women's singles and exactly the same spot but let those big a and big points, it's looking good so far for britton‘s number one. there is great new year's her there is harriet direct. direct. well harriet dart will face ashleigh barty next, that's after the world number one made light work of her opponent alison van uytvanck, beating her 6—1, 6—3. barty, who won the french open, is bidding to win back
6:36 pm
to back grand slams. she has never been to the third round in wimbledon so far for her short career. difficulty is depressing she'll be facing in third round. the new women's well number one french open champion as we know she beat allison. that would be no easy task for her and the third round. that is an ominous draw isn't it for harriet? it is a really tough draw for her now, barty is in phenomenal fahrman so much confidence now at that number one title for one in birmingham took a week to recover since she won the french open in birmingham so you, she looks so comfortable with it she has that hit on her shoulders. great news got in the women's singles
6:37 pm
johanna konta through as well and a huge amount of expectation on her show this as an women's number one. as far as the brits are concerned, she also faces a tough test incidents even. sloan is becoming to form on the grass sometimes she's not enjoyed it that much but she has this year and free him she has become support, the home crowd and tv draws on that energy. i think thatjohanna tv draws on that energy. i think that johanna konta tv draws on that energy. i think thatjohanna konta out with the match up has found a way to get tasks alone and she would have to ta ke tasks alone and she would have to take the ball early and take at this moment that she would enjoy that. serena williams is an action today we know she's taking the 24th grand slam to beat the record, she is through, the 18—year—old son damien. it was a tough match for her but she got three and she found a way and that's what she looks to do, fight her way through, when she gets to the sprinsky rounds to is always dangerous especially on the grass. see jane there at the bit later on in the programme, she did drop the first step so she did look in trouble at one stage in that match but she say through. 0ne
6:38 pm
trouble at one stage in that match but she say through. one of the big upset city on defour, onto the carburettor defending champion in the women's singles. she is out, thatis the women's singles. she is out, that is a big surprise. a big surprise if you are watching her pain struggling with a bit of an injury you thought she would be able to run she was playing very well over there, plenty of confidence coming in but we see a lot of shots this week already at wimbledon. it's amazing that she needed a lucky loser spot to take her place. in that match against andy carberry, it's fascinating it seemed as though things are opening up in the women's draw. there is such great depth now it's difficult to call any player you have to go with marty being a for that number one player now and seem so calm with a promising to ta ke seem so calm with a promising to take everything in her stride but they set up of people that are looking at that title. many thanks and before that. we wonder how many more shots we will see them based tournament so far. i see now, there we re tournament so far. i see now, there were three brits in action in the men's singles.
6:39 pm
no luck for cameron, sadly forj clark, his tournament is over and that by roger federer. it doesn't get much better than this for a british player. walking out with the great man at wimbledon. for the familya great man at wimbledon. for the family a special moment for clark all the excitement of a kid at the park. there is a reason roger federer is perhaps the best ever to play the game, plays, and precision. look i cannot even fussed, so accustomed to people come to seeing his shots pick up the chocolate. even clark in utter disbelief. and while sets one away and 6—1, clark did take that are it to a tie—break in the second, much to the delight of court number one. that proved to be just of court number one. that proved to bejust a of court number one. that proved to be just a snapshot, better or now 37 and has made a career of making things look very easy indeed. you can see what his
6:40 pm
fans think. a great test for clark but ultimately one far too strong, this is better oppressed ‘s 77th grand slam, and experience best to be used in this occasion. so jaywalking off but happy memories of playing against the game's biggest star. british number one kyle admin fed at the second hurdle yesterday and today so too did britton‘s number two, cameron norrie was outmatched against japan kei nishikori, cameron norrie was outmatched againstjapan kei nishikori, the world seventh best player losing class. most of the day's emotion could be found on court number two, this is dan evans first go into main draw of wimbledon since testing for cocaine two years ago. now he's into that third round to beating the world 16th best player thatjoy was evidence as was the support. world 16th best player thatjoy was evidence as was the supportm means so much to get through especially here at wimbledon where i've done pretty well and i want to win matches, big matches at the grand sum is what i really
6:41 pm
enjoy and it meant so much out there today. evans does not want his redemption to end here, with this when he matches his best ever asw 19 run. what a result for him. and be merry in the singles this year he's given eve ryo ne in the singles this year he's given everyone a bliss by confirming that not only is he playing in the mixed doubles alongside serena williams he's also playing in the men's doubles and is warming up out on court number one at the moment. who would have thought that and be merry after with the hip that he experienced of course remember famously went out back in 2017 at wimbledon. he did not play last year but he is back, he thought at one stage his career would be over but he's out on court number one playing alongside his doubles partner up against them at the moment and wouldn't it be great if you can get his doubles campaign here at
6:42 pm
wimbledon off to air when i we know he wanted double title at queens. 0n his return from that hip resurfacing operation that he underwent. a huge match under way at the moment out on centre court. rafael nadal and nick kyrgios, bad blood between these two and the list is nick kyrgios was up to his old tricks once again. you know you like to mix things up on the court and did so once again. there it goes and underarm serve and is currently one set all at the moment between these two. it was my found the ballot in the first set, nick kyrgios hit back, these pictures five all now, level taking in the ferret as he now plenty of feel that the tv still with my found the doll criticising showing him a lack of respect and nick kyrgios called him super salty in a podcast but as we know he's not the only controversial australian in this draw we saw bernard tomic in the opening round and he has been find his full match fee, £45,000 he
6:43 pm
got for appearing in the first round but for appearing in the first round but for not showing his absolute best he's been find about that full feed baby wimbledon authorities and it's not the first time been accused of tanking as it's called on court and he's done so again as his tournament and with that fine. cell fascinating stuff obviously on centre court. there have been some big going on at sta mford there have been some big going on at stamford bridge of a returning hero. thanksjohn. as a player he won every trophy possible with chelsea and now the club are hoping he can do the same as manager. frank lampard was confirmed as the blues' new head coach today, just 6 weeks after guiding derby to the championship play—off final in what was his first managerial role. will he be able to emulate his successes on the pitch at stamford bridge? the former england international made 648 appearances for chelsea,
6:44 pm
winning 11 major trophies with them including 3 premier league titles. he also won 4 fa cups, as well as two league cups and in 2012 lampard was part of the chelsea side which beat bayern to claim their one and only champions league title. so do the fans think he can get anywhere close to that success as a manager? andy swiss reports from stamford bridge. having played here i felt the pressure was high because of expectations and pressure i put on myself having been the manager for one year at derby area nice on this side of the fence that pressure is much more whatever club you're at and of course when you come to a public chelsea have expectations and standards for competitive next year in and year out. i understand that. i would not say apprehensive, i'm a realist and i understand what is wa nted realist and i understand what is wanted from me from within the club andi wanted from me from within the club and i will try and deliver. we have to start with an intention to win. ifi to start with an intention to win. if i sat here and did not set out i don't think i would be here. we will
6:45 pm
not be playing champions are and year out, for sure that is something that should drive is all myself and the players included. that is hard i can't sit here and see what it is, there are a number of factors this year and we want to develop and be competitive. i will not start seeing league positions or whatever asked me at the end of the year. that devastating loss in the semi—final of the women's world cup still feels quite raw but england don't have time to dwell on it. they've got a third place play—off coming up against sweden on saturday, after the swedes suffered heartbreak of their own, falling to an extra—time goal in a 1—0 defeat by the netherlands last night. it means the dutch will play defending champions the usa in the final on sunday. our sports reporterjane dougall is in nice ahead of saturday's match, what's the mood like in the england camp now? i spent some time with if few of the players today i'm sure you can imagine it's still very raw and painful for them. imagine it's still very raw and painfulfor them. this is a dream
6:46 pm
for years, and they've had to deal with heartbreak of losing a semifinal of the world cup. and also missing a penalty as well which was crucial. there's been many questions asked about the fact the captain stepped up to take that penalty, why wasn't it nikita 7 stepped up to take that penalty, why wasn't it nikita? she's the usual penalty paper but she missed the previous two in the tournament. many have asked why it wasn't a square for england and that shedding light in this tournament, and then whites are very close friends they are roommates throughout this tournament andi roommates throughout this tournament and i spoke to ed and a little earlier and asked why she did not ta ke earlier and asked why she did not take the penalty and if she wished she had even if it meant missing. take the penalty and if she wished she had even if it meant missinglj would she had even if it meant missing.” would love to take away what she's feeling, she holds so much on her shoulders and way from being a recapping and she's like our hero. what she's done it is tournament, she's done appearances and ridiculous tackles more than they could do in the world and
6:47 pm
i said to her this is not on you this is a team game. if i could take any of that i we i would do it in a heartbeat and aping the team will do that. for staff she holds so much herself accountable for so many things and that's why she is a true leader but she is an amazing human and she will get over this but it's ha rd and she will get over this but it's hard and we fully back her and everything and we don't blame anyone and we all focus and she will be focused on this bronze medal match. it wasn't a discussion that she would take the penalty and not you? there is a lot that goes into the penalty taking in they seem a lot of stats that staff really go a mix not just the moment thing. the staff really need to take their time over eights and looking back at and it's a lot of things that go into who will take that penalty and steph was our penalty taker for the semifinal
6:48 pm
and that's what it was and we all fully trust everything on what the staff say. i want to ask you about news that came in in the last hour about the former england men's manager mark sampson and his return to football. we have been hearing about this, it's ironic that it's happening now. but phil neville predisaster mark samson has just been appointed manager of negative steven gauge i think it's ironic because four years ago it was mark samson who took england to the 2015 world cup in canada where the bronze medal. he also took them from 13th in the world that there in the world and where they still currently are in the rankings but that he was sacked in september 2017i did follow the evidence of inappropriate and unacceptable behaviour with a female —— female player in a previous role however, he then took the fa to a
6:49 pm
tribunal and he reached a settlement injanuary tribunal and he reached a settlement in january after an tribunal and he reached a settlement injanuary after an unfair tribunal and he reached a settlement in january after an unfair dismissal case. so the breaking news this hour mark samson, the former in that manager is back in football management as head coach of the two stephen h. the match on saturday will be four days after that heartbreaking semi—final defeat to the usa,how hard will it be for phil neville to keep his players motivated for so long following that huge disappointment? he went 20 minutes from qualifying their first ever tournament but needing a win to reach the knockout stages they squandered a 3—0 need to finish three all against argentina and it still hurts. i think it's still a rock and hard to objective andi still a rock and hard to objective and i think we need to sit down together and assess that i'm just individual things of course but m ista kes individual things of course but mistakes are part of the game and we understand that as a player but as a tea m understand that as a player but as a team perspective we need to start being more
6:50 pm
disciplined and more professional and they're under pressure to get results and we finished the tournament feeling like we did not get the results we wanted to in that final game. four years ago, the gb women's basketball team were almost at the point of extinction. they'd needed emergency funding after uk sport scrapped their investment, leaving the players worried about the future of their sport. now, they've made history, by reaching the semi—finals of the eurobasket tournament in belgr. they beat hungary 52—69 to get themselves a chance to reach the final but also guarantee a place in the olympic qualifying finance next year. it's something that we are really going for so for us we have got to stay focused and told us the whole time we are notjust happy to be here we have goals and we want to achieve them in tokyo is definitely
6:51 pm
one of them and it's in our reach now because he made it in our reach. right lets quickly round up some of the day's other sports news now and... propjoe marler has come out of international retirement and been named in england's latest rugby world cup training squad. marler won 59 caps before retiring from england duty last september. but he told head coach eddiejones he wanted to come back. the squad includes four uncapped players, as well as danny cipriani. the west indies have beef both sides final match at the tournament, they won by 23 runs in headingley and afghanistan needs without a single point. england have set australia 218 to win their second ashes one—day international. tammy beaumont hit a 115 ball 114 as england reached 183—4 but they then collapsed to 217 all out. australia r
