happy with the weather that the put up happy with the weather that the put up this lovely picture of this bright orange thing in the sky. what alastair bruce paul wouldn't give to be there. sun shining but not so much on rory mcilroy. a difficult first round — his worst at the masters. it's a familiar tale for rory mcilroy, that was a wild drive off of the par by 13 tea into the trees into the left, it cost me a drop shot. this for a play from his cow isa shot. this for a play from his cow is a bad miss. that is nowhere near where that needs to be. —— from his calibre. he is almost playing himself out of the tournament and then finds his best golf and it's too late and we have seen that happen before. starting to play himself in in the second rep because they are having to squeeze all these in and starting to make some birdies as well. exactly and he looks a bit freer and easier and i think it is always this question when he comes to augusta, that is his fourth purdy

of the front nine even though he started on the back nine. now banning to make the cut, whether he has too much ground to make up in the field, it is a shame he can't find that sparkling golf at the start when he needed it. all this stock but were mcelroy and the grand symptom i'm not sure if he has been thinking about this but... someone who has been a decent form for the last few years dustin johnson, four top ten finishes in his last four tournaments. if we look at us from coming into this year since the lockdown five is less extremity is finish either firth store second and bring is aching for some swine when tuckman pressed the sham bow, goes up tuckman pressed the sham bow, goes up put money dustinjohnson. tuckman pressed the sham bow, goes up put money dustin johnson. he has that power in mexico so easy. he got himself to 10—under par and bogeyed the 14th, this is him on the par 515, a gust of wind got him, it

worked perfect in the air, i have sat beside that green and then it catches the front of the bacon once it hits that and rolls back into the water and it cost him a shot but he will be a good bet this week. let's ta ke will be a good bet this week. let's take a look at the latest leaderboard. dustinjohnson at take a look at the latest leaderboard. dustin johnson at the top of it. a few unfamiliar names in there as well. the south korean 22—year—old and i think a lot of people feel he is a potential major winner, pga tour player of the year 2019 paul casey will be part of our coverage tonight that he suffered 720. and look at danny willett six under par, shaping 2016, another one of these golfers who augusta and whatever else been going on itjust quicksand, and he says me. just—in—time is playing alongside dustin johnson, just—in—time is playing alongside dustinjohnson, i think he is drop to go back to 6—under but a big fat this week. one point we haven't even mentioned is tiger woods. for under

par, het mentioned is tiger woods. for under par, he t soffit half past seven, will he be good? i thought he was very impressive yesterday. he actually rarely for all his greatness at a customer rarely starts as well as that bogey free run, worked totally in control of his golf. back in 19 because emmett too many problems and trying to defend the title and when a sixth greenjacket to defend the title and when a sixth green jacket to match jack nicholas, thatis green jacket to match jack nicholas, that is enough motivation, is in a? never write off tiger woods if you... greg norman part of the coverage tonight? he is on at about 9:15pm this evening, want to chat with him about all of the talk... it will be fascinating to talk about driving as well. what more could you wa nt driving as well. what more could you want in your friday evening?” driving as well. what more could you want in your friday evening? i like what you're saying about tiger woods, i have them in the office suite say. good to know that you have faith in him as well. thanks to both for all of the update on the

emotions of the night. wake up to watson messages on your phone and you begin to realise the magnitude of what we did last night was a magnificent effort from the players and they deserve all the plaudits that they are going to get. -- two watts of messages. back on the celebrations were behind closed doors. this the lockdown ration from one street just as the doors. this the lockdown ration from one streetjust as the penalty doors. this the lockdown ration from one street just as the penalty was saved. —— lockdown reaction. one street just as the penalty was saved. -- lockdown reaction. it is probably the ultimate for the professionals. they go and have never quite played at a world cup or european championships, it is one that has eluded us for many years but when they are playing at the top level and when he champions league trophies and leaks, and they've got to be looking towards doing their business in these big compositions and that's what they have done. what's gotten achieved here in this stadium last night of course since

we don't want to turn up to the euros and it is a party and we're happy to be there, we want to go there and win, we don't want to go there and win, we don't want to go there and win, we don't want to go there and not when football matches and play well and not do yourself justice just for getting there. we don't want that, we don't want to be the party circus or whatever you turn up and everybody is having a good time, we want to go there and get points, do well in the group and if it gets through, we get through. and if we don't, we can at least look back and say we give it a big goal and obviously for us that is the goal and ambition. you can't get too high and football when it's going well and you can't get too vote whenever it's not. —— too low. time for a quick look at the other football stories making the sports headlines this evening. liverpool forward mo salah has tested positive for coronavirus — he's currently on international duty with egypt. he has no symptoms but is likely to miss liverpool's next two matches against leicester on november the 21st and atalanta in the champions league on the 25th.

0ur reporter ankur desai has been following this story for us. in his first comment since he alleged that there has been institutional racism at yorkshire, this is from back in september when he first made those comments, he talks about how he felt he and his asian tenets are treated differently when it came to discipline as well as coaching and he gave us an e—mail which perfected broader conversations and culture around the clu b conversations and culture around the club which contained racist link which as well as he also alleges racist comments from team—mates which were passed off as banter and he was ridiculed for not drinking and participating intriguing games as well. these expenses have had a real impact on him, haven't they? they have had a massive impact on his mental health in particular. he claimed back in the denver he was close to taking his own life and he said he got to the seizure he hated plane for york surface of this was the county he started his career, became the first british asian players are kept in the county as a

action to enjoy over the weekend — besides the masters of course. rugby union's autumn nations cup kicks off tonight. it's a new tournament designed to replace the usual autumn internationals — southern hemisphere teams are staying where they are. the opening game sees ireland host wales in dublin tonight. earlier i spoke to our rugby union correspondent. chrisjones. i chris jones. i think chrisjones. i think this is a really tough task for whales. they have not wa nted task for whales. they have not wanted up and since the world cup warm—up of 2015 before that world cup so it is a really tough ask for whales wasn't going to an ireland inside that have a point to perfected they were well beaten in paris and there are new faces in the irish site that will be exciting, especially on the wing with james lowe who just got on residency. really exciting and appetising aimed at pick—up his friendly tournament. england faced georgia on saturday and that will be interesting because eddiejones has set his players is a real targets, hasn't he? eddiejones has set his players is a realtargets, hasn't he? eddie jones since that world cup final defeat in

at this competition. without the
