10:50 pm
the uspga where overnight leader rory mcilroy has dropped a shot in his second round. he has dropped two shots so far and is three under par at the moment, alongside englishman matt fitzpatrick who is in the clubhouse. they's biggest mover is zealot or race. you can follow it all on the bbc sport website. —— the biggest mover is zalatoris. wimbledon's organisers have said they're deeply disappointed at the decision by the men's and women's world tennis tours to strip the event of its ranking points, and that they're considering their options. the atp and wta removed wimbledon's ranking points in response to the lawn tennis asociation's ban on players from russia and belarus
10:51 pm
from all uk grass court tournaments due to the war in ukraine. the atp say the ban undermines their principle that players of any nationality should be able to compete based on merit and without discrimination. the itf have also removed rankings points forjunior and wheelchair players at wimbledon. the uk's other grass court tournaments, including queens, are unaffected. the removal of rankings will affect novak djokovic�*s world number one status as he won't be able to retain his points from last year's wimbledon win, his sixth singles title at the all england club. he's likely to be overtaken by the current world number two from russia, daniil medvedev, who's one of those banned from competing at wimbledon this year. medvedev is in paris for the french open which starts on sunday but says he has no plans to take legal action to try to get a place at wimbledon. i guess if you ask a lawyer, probably we have...
10:52 pm
there is some room to making this but personally i think, as i said, you know, not me taking these decisions. if i can play, i'm not going to court for this one. there was an exciting first leg, inverness caley thistle ford backfrom 2—0 to level it. they finished third while sonjohnson were second from bottom in the premiership. the football association has warned that players and fans are being put at "great risk" by a series of pitch invasions in england — as the season reaches its climax. since monday there have been five pitch invasions, with one manjailed for attacking a player. for football, it is becoming all too familiar, fans swarming onto the pitch last night after everton secured their premier league survival. it wasn't all celebration, though. as he tried to leave the feel, palace boss patrick vieira was taunted by one fan and appeared
10:53 pm
to kick out. patrick vieira later said he had nothing to say. at goodison park, though, that pitch invasion has brought mixed opinions. it is a cause for concern because obviously there is going to be that minority that takes it too far. i can understand why a lot of people would do it. it is very difficult when you are caught up in the heat at the moment. but such scenes are becoming worryingly commonplace. swindon say their players were verbally and physically abused last night after they were engulfed by fans following their defeat to port vale. players have been hit, players have been kicked, players have been spat at, players have been verbally abused. it is just not on. and the dangers are all too start. yesterday, a nottingham forest fan was jailed for head—butting sheffield united's billy sharpe who later needed stitches. well, the spate of pitch invasions that we have seen, including last night at everton, is raising serious concerns. the players union, the pfa,
10:54 pm
say some fans' behaviour is toxic, aggressive, and dangerous. they say people are at risk of being seriously hurt or worse. since last year's lockdown and the violence which marred the euros final at wembley, police say fan disorder has increased. so, what can be done to keep supporters off the pitch? part of it is affecting stewarding, part of it may be physical measures, but not fencing. the most effective way will be for supporters and everyone to agree that you don't go on the pitch. but as the premier league reaches its climax this weekend, one of the managers going for the title has urged for calm. i think we can celebrate things without threatening ourselves and the opponent. i would say that is super possible. at a time in the season, then, when emotions are running high, how fans show those emotions is under the spotlight. andy swiss, bbc news.

a quick look at the rugby union results. exeter�*s hopes are over after they lost to bristol but sale could squeeze into the top four. they won a second—half try and 116 points to seven in coventry. in the united rugby championship ulster are guaranteed the home game in the quarterfinals after narrowly beating the sharks in ulster. they won it 24—21. it wasn't a good night for the welsh sides as cardiff lost heavily to bennett and an ospreys were beaten by the balls. that is all the sports for now. the weekend is looking not too bad
10:56 pm
at all, lots of sunshine around and feeling pleasantly warm but we had some scattered showers in the forecast, two. in fact, it will end “p forecast, two. in fact, it will end up barely cloudy in northern ireland in western scotland eventually on saturday. the clouds have been clearing overnight and into the early hours of saturday morning, in fact it is largely clear across the uk, perhaps some mist and murk around close in the south—west and a few showers there in the western isles and maybe central scotland. but other than that, i think it is mostly sunny, right from the word go, with temperatures between nine and 11 degrees. here is how it looks through saturday morning, largely bright or sunny across england and wales but quickly northern ireland and western scotland, medically the south—west here, it will cloud over with some rain. let's have a closer look, this is four o'clock in the afternoon, the best of the weather across england and wales with temperatures of around 21 degrees, just the chance of a shower but
10:57 pm
really an outside chance. this is where most of the cloud will be, northern ireland, south—western and western scotland, our bags of rain as well, although in the north here we will properly have some sunny spells, maybe some sunshine in aberdeenshire. as we go through the afternoon, i think it will turn progressively wetter in the western isles but further south, it stays dry in where england —— ennington in wales. how about sunday? we see the south and the south just under around holland and germany, and actually some warmth being spread in our direction so temperatures will rise little bit, only a bet on sunday across the south and south—east, whereas many north—western areas will remain on the cool side, we still have that atlantic breeze, weather fronts coming in, showers, 15, maybe 16 degrees whereas in london and the
