six of the best for lewis hamilton, as the mercedes driver wins a record sixth british grand prix. hello and thanks forjoining us on what has surely been one the most dramatic days of sport ever witnessed on british shores. we had a wimbledon epic at the all england club, a record—breaking day at silverstone in the british grand prix but above all, a cricket all—time classic at lord's in london. england are world champions after beating new zealand in the most gripping, nerve—shredding final the sport has ever seen. here to somehow recap an astounding match that included the ultimate finish in the form of a superover, that's an extra over for each side to determine the winner, isjohn watson. after 44 years and 12 editions england finally lifted the trophy. was an unbelievable end to this tournament. the two teams couldn't

be split. new zealand 200a148, england 241 be split. new zealand 20011148, england 241 all be split. new zealand 2004148, england 241 all out. nothing can separate them after a hundred overs of cricket and so it went to a super over. all eyes on ben stokes and josh butler who contributed 15 of those final six balls. in reply, new zealand could only match them as martin failed to get the two runs they needed off that final bowl which would have seen them win it out right. it lives england as well champions, having scored more boundaries over the course of the entire match. it seems an unfair way to have do decide this tournament are the what has been seven weeks of compelling cricket. new zealand had never won the world cup, nor had england, having failed to get over the line in three previous finals. what a dramatic and to what has simply been a breathtaking tournament. eoin morgan, the winning captain and now england can go and

celebrate. i still can't quite believe it, that is why i'm carrying it around as much as they can.” can't believe we've gotten over the line. it's been an extraordinary day. you guys watching — the most incredible game of cricket with nothing between the sides. so i sometimes sport sometimes is very, very fine margins. i think it was the finest of margins today, and it could have gone either way, but i'm thankful it was ours. over the last four years, it means absolutely everything, the planning, the hard work, the dedication, the commitment, the little bit of luck today really did get us over the line in an absolutely incredible journey. yeah, i think line in an absolutely incredible journey. yeah, ithink the line in an absolutely incredible journey. yeah, i think the thing you walk away with his the amount of heart in the amount of fight the guys have shown about this whole campaign. probably none more than the men we've just witnessed ——

match with just witnessed, and both sides, it comes down to, how did they win? foundries or something? you know, it was something to walk away with the title and we are gutted it's not us but england had a good campaign and they deserve the victories —— was it boundaries or something? well, as you can imagine, the atmosphere at lord's was electric, the tension palpable and a real roller—coaster of emotions, notjust for the players but for the fans as well, of course. that was the most incredible cricket i've ever watched. we've been watching cricket probably since the mid—705 and we used to go to school together and we left school in 1982 and he got me a ticket. it wasjust incredible. how can it get better than that? when it comes down to boundaries scored, ridiculous. i think i cried, for about 15 minutes. english people consoled me.

it's one of those things were neither team deserved to lose. i'e played cricket for 8 years, i've never seen anything like this. it's an experience of a lifetime. it was amazing, that super over, i mean, champions 2019, first—time winners. no — i'm, just, honestly there's no words at the moment, i'm gattered. yeah, honestly i'm just so gattered. aw man, it was unbelievable! i thought we'd lost it. a scarier! i thought it was all over and i was like that — hands in my head. and then we came out and i didn't realise we'd drawn the game. i know! it was that confusing. but it was happening! but, you know, we got to follow — i thought they put woakesy in, but they put off archer in. aww, no! but we did it! jofra delivered! he's our boy. england, world champions! brilliant stuff there. will if there wasn't enough excitement going on in

london, novak djokovic has retained his wimbledon title after saving two champions points to defeat the mighty roger federer at the all england club. it was the longest wimbledon final atjust under five hours decided in a thrilling tie—break in the fifth and final set. a highly—anticipated final between two of the sport's greats did not dissappoint. when federer had two championship points at 8—7 in the fifth, djokovic held his nerve to save both, and then break back, eventually taking it to the new tie—break at 12—12. the serb had won the match's previous two tie—brea ks and he did so again. it means the world number one now has won 16 grand slams — and four of the last five. let's hear from the great man himself now talking to holly hamilton. you said that was one of the most exciting and thrilling finals of your career, it certainly was the longest. how does that one compared to you? well, i think that this is the most demanding mentally match ever as part of against raphael in

the 2012 australian open was the physically most demanding, but today having roger across the net play very well, all the circumstances, you know, that i was in. it was really ha rd you know, that i was in. it was really hard and it was a big challenge. but one thing that i'm very proud of his that i managed to stay calm and in moments when i was match points down to find the strength that's allowed me to come back and win. where does that come from? finding back and win. where does that come from ? finding that back and win. where does that come from? finding that mental and physical strength? i think experience but also i made a deal with myself, so to say, and i didn't wa nt to with myself, so to say, and i didn't want to let the concentration failed me, and that's something that was not dependent on my opponent or anything else, it wasjust me. even though i felt like i could have played at her, i think that's one thing i'll probably point out is the most positive thing of today. also a great day for british petrolheads with britain's lewis hamilton winning a record sixth british grand prix.

he benefitted from a taking a clever pit stop while a safety car was out to jump in front of his mercedes teamate valterri bottas. his seventh win of the season sees him stretch his lead in the standings to 39 points azi farni was at silverstone. silverstone is a truck steeped in rich history. some are too young to know the truckmake first winners, but they know the last. already britain's most decorated driver, lewis hamilton was looking to become the most successful at the british grand prix. his mercedes team—mate valtteri bottas started on pole position but hamilton piled the pressure on from the start. he couldn't make it stick, though. his breakthrough came in a moment of misfortune — antonio giovinazzi's. with the safety car out, hamilton came in, a tactical pit stop which gave him the lead. greatjob, guys. behind the mercedes, red bull's max verstappen was on a charge. he came for sebastien vettel in third but the ferrari dropped them both out of the podium places. verstappen survived to finish

fifth, vettel last. back in front, hamilton cruised to a record sixth british grand prix win and his 80th overall. more importantly, it means he has a 39 point lead at the halfway stage of the championship. you think you get used to something like that but i tell you it feels like the first time and i'm forever grateful to eve ryo ne time and i'm forever grateful to everyone who has spent the whole weekend here. i really hope you enjoyed today. these people have witnessed history but hamilton is racing towards more. next in his sights, michael schumacher‘s record of 91 race wins. who knows? he could even have it by the next time he comes here. south africa's dylan frittelli has won thejohn deere classic in illinois to claim his first pga title. the south african closed with a round of 64 to finish on 21 under — winning by two strokes. the victory means he's earned a spot

at this week's open championship. joining him later this week will be bernd wiesberger who is in good form with the open championship on the horizon, the austrian winning the scottish open on sunday. he won the final european tour event before the players head for portrush on a play—off against frenchman benjamin hebert. overnight leader wiesberger was two under par for the day and 22 under overall to pick up his sixth european tour title. and, kim sei—young has won the marathon classic by two strokes. the south korean finished on six—under—par to clinch her ninth lpga tour victory. frenchman julian alaphillipe kept hold of the leader's yellowjersey after stage 9 of the tour de france on bastille day, so plenty for the home fans.

south africa's daryl impey won the 170 kilometre stage from st etienne into brioude, that's the first stage win of his career. the defending champion geraint thomas is still fifth, just over a minute behind alaphillipe. you can get all the latest sports news at our website, that's bbc.com/sport. a quick reminder of our top story, england are well champions after beating new zealand in the most dramatic cricket world cup final ever. both sides locked onto hundred 41 runs after 100 overs, they tied once again in the super over with england triumphing on account of boundaries scored in the match. that is incredible. for me and the rest of the sport today team, goodbye.

hello. there's some warmth and some sunshine to start this forecast — by the end, we'll see some rain for many. more on that in a moment. here's how monday shapes up, an area of high pressure centred over the uk, for now keeping atlantic fronts at bay. and a good deal of sunshine through monday morning. there will be more cloud across northern scotland, shetland in particular and also across eastern counties of england. that cloud quite stubborn before to thin and break. but some bright or sunny spells coming through. elsewhere, after a sunny start, some fair weather cloud developing, so sunny spells for the second half of the day, but aside from an isolated shower, dry, pleasantly warm, 20 — 24 celsius the top temperature, a little bit cooler for northern scotland and eastern coasts. fine and dry evening for many, some high cloud arriving into northern ireland and western scotland and by dawn on tuesday we're looking temperatures typically between 10—14 celsius, not quite as cool as

the nights over the weekend. then we keep some warmth and sunshine across a large swathe of england and wales on tuesday, but this weak front pushing its way across northern ireland and eventually into scotland will bring more cloud. also some showery outbreaks of rain initially across northern ireland and then into western scotland and some of those showers just working their way a little bit further north and eastwards throughout the day. can't rule out one or two across northern england and north wales most places across england and wales on tuesday will be mainly dry with some warmer sunshine again, 23— 25 celsius the top and picture, a little bit cooler towards northern ireland and scotland, 19— 21 celsius here. for the middle of the week, we've got a more active front starting to push in from the atlantic, taking its time, it may not be until the afternoon that it arrives into scotland. ahead of it, we're still holding onto the warmth across much of england and wales and a strengthening breeze across northern ireland and scotland a sign of things to come. so some rain settling into northern ireland and parts of scotland through the day on wednesday, timings

may well change. high cloud moving into parts of wales and south—west england but ahead of it is where we'll see the best of the sunshine. winds still quite light here, but they start to strengthen across northern ireland and scotland, so would be a breezier into wednesday and a cooler feel as well. there's still some high temperatures across england and wales, potentially up to 25 — 26 celsius, so still some warmth for the mid week. as we go through thursday, this front finally starts to push its way eastwards across the uk, not bringing very much rain across some central and eastern parts of england, areas which could do with some rain. by the time we get to friday and saturday, we could see something a little bit more unsettled and wetter arriving to all of us. that's all from me. bye— bye.
