forjoining us. the skies above melbourne have become a smoky haze of late and even with less than a week to go before the start of the australian open. the bushfires in the country are already affecting the event. practice had to be stopped, one player had to retire, while an exhibition match was abandoned nearby. 0ur sports correspondent katie gornall has more. the katie gornall has more. air was heavy and polluted melbourne the air was heavy and polluted in melbourne but it was decided that the show must go on. this player wasn't looking to qualify for the main draw of the slovenian was struggling and it had nothing to do with her opponent. gasping for breath, she was forced to retire and said afterwards she had been scared. she wasn't the only one. the australian player he had to call a medical timeout on his match whereas the former world number one, maria
6:33 pm
sharapova, was coming from march due to heavy smoke. many have questioned the decision to go on. this player tweeted that she was shocked to see that qualifying matches have started at the australian open. she questioned the concern over the health of everyone out there, including the orchids. smoke from bushfires have led to melbourne becoming one of the world's most polluted cities. 0rganisers of the australian open decided only to delay qualifying by an hour and that was this morning. this is the advice of the medical staff we have on site. for players and staff as well, that directs our decisions as to whether it is safe to play. there was an improvement ignition since we started the matches and also are we going took the medical advice as well as design science test advice,
6:34 pm
i made a decision to continue with play. while the players were allowed out on court, now propose night residents were told to stay inside and close windows. you can smell the smoke of the fire. it should be that will become here the air is clear but today it is very misty. smoke and pollution has presented a major challenge to organisers ahead of the yea r‘s challenge to organisers ahead of the year's first grand slam. the pressure is building but for some the tournament is over before it began. stuart fraser from the times. i appreciate it is dark where it is no because of the smoke. you have been watching tennis in the conditions. i have great admiration for the players coping with the
6:35 pm
dreadful air quality here during the australian summer. i have to say that in melbourne today it was the worst yet. i woke up in the morning, i could feel it in my throat, my eyes a re i could feel it in my throat, my eyes are stinging, and i do not have any respiratory conditions normally. i can't any respiratory conditions normally. ican‘t imagine any respiratory conditions normally. i can't imagine what it is like for players out there trying to qualify in gruelling matches. especially with the heat as well, today was brutalfor with the heat as well, today was brutal for the players and with the heat as well, today was brutalfor the players and i have to admiti brutalfor the players and i have to admit i don't think they should have gone ahead. we sought with this player collapsing on the court, struggling to breathe, i think that shows it was a wrong decision. how much is everybody there what watching the forecast? i know that if the wind changes direction the
6:36 pm
conditions will ease. i have learned over the last week that the forecast can only tell you so much. suddenly, i went for dinner last night, an hour and i went for dinner last night, an hourand a i went for dinner last night, an hour and a half later smoke had suddenly engulfed melbourne. the stench and visibility was poor, there is only so much the forecast can tell you. conditions can suddenly change out of nowhere and i think organisers need to get a better grasp on how to handle it. it is not as though they haven't had warning. i was talking to australia tennis last week about contingency plans, about outdoor play, and i think the way we have handled it today and the communication to players and the real scientific issues surrounding this are very pure. thank you forjoining us. now the weather, albeit in a completely different form,
6:37 pm
has also affected one of the fa cup third round replays tonight. there should have been six but there are now only five after tranmere's match against watford was postponed. heavy rain over the last few days has made the pitch at prenton park unplayable and the replay has been rescheduled for the 23rd of january, just two days after watford play aston villa in the premier league while tranmere will have to squeeze three games into six days. no such problems at the spurs stadium. you'd hope not considering it cost a billion pounds to build so their replay against middlesbrough goes ahead. it's on bbc one. and former chelsea and middlesbrough strikerjimmy floyd hasselbaink is a studio guest. he told me how much a cup run would mean to jose mourinho. he told me how much a cup run would mean to jose mourinho. he is playing at home. he needs to try and get the supporters back on board. he needs a win. it is a cup game, it is against a championship team, everybody
6:38 pm
expects him to win but i think totte n ha m expects him to win but i think tottenham needs a good run in the fa cup no. —— now. it has been a long time and this has to be the start of it. quite a long time indeed, 2008 was the last trophy for spurs and two of those players who won that i know in the opposing dugout. yes, well, i know everything about that match. i was in the stadium at the time. jonathan scored the winner but he normally doesn't do that. he is normally known about his good defending but, yes, it has been a long time for tottenham, over 12 yea rs, long time for tottenham, over 12 years, and, loot, they have got a manager who is a serial winner, so
6:39 pm
hopefully he can bring that to totte n ha m. next to a man who says that yesterday he was walking around with cows and today he's the new barcelona coach, managing the best players in the world. quique setien was introduced to the media today and some of them might have needed the introduction. setien is 61 and comes with the right style, although not a lot of substance when it comes to trophies. barcelona want the former real betis coach to reintroduce the kind of football seen at the nou camp under pep guardiola and before himjohan cruyff and he takes over a side that have won the last two spanish league titles and are top of the current table. quique setien is the new manager of the club that for the first time is top of football's money league. barcelona generated more cash than any other team in europe last season, while manchester united are once again the highest placed premier league club. although that could soon be under threat from manchester city and liverpool.
6:40 pm
those are the top three in football's one a week, compiled by deloitte. tim, iwant football's one a week, compiled by deloitte. tim, i want to start with manchester united, the fixtures of the upper echelons of your money week. the executive vice chairman said that what happens on the field doesn't have any impact on what happens to them financially off it. i'll be getting the sense know that perhaps that might not be true?“ you look at the club of manchester united standing, a real global brand, a history of success over a long period of time, they are not at the top of the money week by chance
6:41 pm
but by the success they have enjoyed. but when we are developing strategies for football clubs, we talk about how the more money you generate the more you can invested your playing squads and, ultimately, the on pitch success that they should deliver delivers more revenue. something with manchester united at the moment seems to be broken. we talk about barcelona and the db announced their new manager to reintroduce the barcelona way, £750 million. depends quite a lot on that global brand of the barcelona way. of course, and they have spoken quite loudly today about their position on the money week. everybody knows about real madrid and barcelona. you see evidently stand for undershirts. they are to give more control of the assets that
6:42 pm
they sell, particularly around their merchandising, allowing them to top up merchandising, allowing them to top up money. that is deloitte's version of who makes money in football. now for a quick look at some of today's other stories. england spinnerjack leach is to return home from the tour of south africa to recover fully from the illnesses he's had over the last few weeks. the team's medical staff don't think he'll be fit enough to play in the final two tests. tyson fury has predicted a second round knockout of deontay wilder when they meet for their rematch in las vegas next month. their first fight for the wbc heavyweight title ended in a draw. fury says he won't be letting the judges decide this time. the world number one and reigning championjudd trump is out of the masters. he was beaten six frames to three by shaun murphy. murphy won four frames in a row to move through to the quarterfinals where he'llfacejoe perry. over the last 5 years it's been the campaign that's shown that this girl
6:43 pm
and indeed more than 3 million girls can. to mark the fifth anniversary a new advert has been released focusing on those who might have decided against exercising in the past... laura scott reports from the launch in london. sweating, grimacing, we all do it when we exercise but why is it still such a to—do, particularly among women? that is exactly what the new this girl can campaign is tackling, trying to show real women in real situations. at the lodge today at southbank, despite this women captaining women's southbank, despite this women ca ptaining women's netball to southbank, despite this women captaining women's netball to gold in 2018, she still struggles with body image and find social media alienating. people talk about how social media is a bit vague. these are the people that you see, —— it
6:44 pm
doesn't resonate with people because they think that that's great we can't do that, but this is just normal and real people. sport england who are behind this campaign are uncompromising in their quest to tell it how it is one of the most striking examples of that is the image of the woman's tampon string showing before she does your menopause and period pains are also covered. ice as a mum to try a class with me and she's going through the menopause so, she thought it might actually be beneficial for her as well. we started working out together and we haven't stopped ever since. it is nice, really nice to have each other to be motivated.
6:45 pm
goes behind the campaign say they have already had a positive impact for 4 million people in the uk over the last five years, but with 40% of the last five years, but with 40% of the female population still not doing their weekly days of exercise, it is clear that this work will continue until every girl can. 48 hours ago, wayne warren continue until every girl can. oldest ever world champion at 57. but he's still not been paid. players at the bdo tournament were warned that low attendances might lead to a reduction in prize money, and they will get some, but the organisatnion won't say how much. tomos dafydd has more. back into herbert, having achieved a lifetime ambition, becoming world champion still hasn't sunk in. lifetime ambition, becoming world champion still hasn't sunk inlj think this is what most people do as long as they have. it is what you achieved doing
