‘in ‘ in 2008 here players can play. back in 2008 there we re players can play. back in 2008 there were 28 events on the tour and fast—forwa rd to were 28 events on the tour and fast—forward to 2018, there is just 15. bess raised serious concerns about the feature and viability of this tour. this season it increased and is up 220 but in the post—glow, there has been cause for much more. the way it unfolded and being so close and the spectacle of the cap this year and how it finished as a huge boost for women's golf and hopefully it can be a stepping stone for more sponsors and events next year. financially it makes sense for your applause best golfers to play on the lpga tour. the top earner has one £222,000. in the united states the highest earner has over £2.1 million. i dreamed they can i think

there is no limit for tournaments andi there is no limit for tournaments and i would like to see a schedule with 40 and i would like to see a schedule with 110 or 45 events. and has never pretended to be like the lpga. it is what it is. the lpga has prayed for what it is. the lpga has prayed for what 75 million? she aims for the next tea m what 75 million? she aims for the next team and won the new south wales open twice but she knows the reality of life on tour. there is a lot you have to pay for, and the top 20 you might earn 6000 euros and then you have paid top stomach close to 2000 euros and food and accommodation. a lot of girls will be pulling their own trolley and hopefully these pieces will start to improve. sponsors are attracted to success improve. sponsors are attracted to success and innovation so the cap when added to the mixed gender and then enjoyed in and under the likes of dubai should help the ladies european tour make their paycheque

for a brighterfuture. european tour make their paycheque for a brighter future. we european tour make their paycheque for a brighterfuture. we finished tonight reflecting on the most successful worlds in clement world gymnastics championship for britain. silver on the and england thank you for joining us. boris. could not ask for more, being out there on the world stage and being able to perform a routine like a dead and the final was unbelievable and i am proud of eve ryo ne unbelievable and i am proud of everyone that was out with me and supported the journey and just getting there and doing that. talk us getting there and doing that. talk us through the routine, because when this was going on did you know that you are on course for a gold—medal? idid not you are on course for a gold—medal? i did not anticipate getting a gold—medal, no. it was more for me i a lwa ys gold—medal, no. it was more for me i always try to have fun out there and

ta ke always try to have fun out there and take each skill as it comes in the routine and by the time i got to get this man i was focused on... where you nervous at this point where the dismount is coming or where you so focused? i was quite relaxed. this is the bed i have to be really relaxed because going over to that one rail can be a balance issue so at that point it is just... one rail can be a balance issue so at that point it isjust. .. i1 point it is particularly tricky here? probably the bicep —— or ijust came past. the routine of the championships for us as well and they wanted to and is on a high and come out of the gold medal, it is amazing. there is the dismount. it was a surprise but many congratulations. for you, you almost took a silver medal and you were very close to getting a gold medal as well. i am super happy, for me

and has been a long road to get back to this point and pull out some of my best gymnastics at the time and it really was so special. coming so close to a gold medal, and this must tell you that you're very close now to getting the gold medal not only in world championships but looking ahead to the olympics next year this must tell you there is not much farther you have to go. it is exciting to know that and just getting this routine out there that was kind of the big goal and the first half was pretty smooth but the second half for me, there were definite improvements i could make that to do it under that pressure at that to do it under that pressure at that moment, i cannot ask for much more in this point in time but i am excited to be chasing a gold—medal. and for you, you had the bronze medal in the vault and you had to go up medal in the vault and you had to go up against some mobiles and talking a lot about her in the last week or so, and you must have been delighted

to come away with a metal?” so, and you must have been delighted to come away with a metal? i was very happy and to compete against simone biles and to come upon the podium just below them is pretty amazing. what is that like, competing against her because she has such a dominant world championships, setting the bar at the moment as far as gymnastics goes s0 the moment as far as gymnastics goes so how is that when you know you have to go up against someone at that quality? she is so dominant and actually can't talented, and can do any skill she wants. why is she able to perform so well? she is so strong and she is small obviously and that is probably an advantage in gymnastics that she is naturally gifted and she works really hard. there is a huge amount of talent. gifted and she works really hard. there is a huge amount of talentm really is and for it to come together at this point is not that

fa st together at this point is not that fast and it will have spirit the whole team on and the other guys who are key members of these teams and helping us get the olympic qualification and that was the priority for us going in, we had to qualify as a team so the qualification for us is big pressure and the final, and we wanted to go out and enjoying —— enjoy them and i cannot wait to see what we can all do. and we can't wait to see what else they will do. we saw some thrills and spills there and we have more for you now from nascar. take a look at this time out walking away unscathed from this crash and yesterday's crash. gaughan was briefly leading the race with seven laps left when the accident happened, his car was squeezed between two others, performed a somersault, and landed back on its wheels. he later told his mum on tv, ‘it didn't hurt, i promise.‘ amazingly that he walked away from

that one. and a reminder of our top story tonight. uefa issue disciplinary proceedings against bulgaria following last night's racist activity in sofia. football's governing body have been called upon to act swiftly and decisively to tackle the issue. troy townsend from the anti racism group kick it out told this programme he hopes uefa will get out the toughest possible sanctions. for me they should have called a special meeting and it should have been a topic of discussion immediately to get a resolution immediately to find out what the actions will be so we await the sanctions that will be put in place but again they are put in place against not enough stewart and put in place on what happened on video screens when really they should be isolated and dealt with instantly. and that isjust about it for myself and the team on the bbc sportscenter but plenty more to come.

good evening it is definitely been a dry day for us today and a welcome breakfrom dry day for us today and a welcome break from the rain dry day for us today and a welcome breakfrom the rain but dry day for us today and a welcome break from the rain but already we are watching the next massive crowd bringing rain and across northern ireland and that will push steadily east where a guide to the night—time. what it does do with the winds strengthening and cloud piling and, it stops temperature is falling and, it stops temperature is falling a low seminary degree celsius but brings further localised flooding because the water it down the ground is saturated. hill fog as well but clears quickly from northern ireland and swiftly for other western areas. the question is how quickly it clears the northeast of scotland and whether we will see pulses of rain but with light winds and a few showers and centre and i think it will feel pleasant enough. overnight ucb weather front close to the south

and east and showers already gathering further west and that is setting us up for a couple of days and sunny spells.

you are watching beyond 100 days. the clock has never ticked aloud about tonight reports from brussels are that the two sides are nearing a brexit breakthrough. the pound has surged on speculation that the two sides might have found an agreement. but it still has to be sold politically. the deal is understood to understand key concessions from borisjohnson to understand key concessions from boris johnson on customs checks in the irish sea though the precise nature of those compromises have yet to be announced. russia says it will not allow clashes between turkish and syrian forces. it comes as the military offence continues seemingly undetermined by the incoming american sanctions was that also,
