6:34 pm
blink, alize corneille surname had taken the first set, threatening an almighty upset and caught one. it only got worse in the second for swiatek. not only was kante playing the match of her dreams but swiatek was helping her along the way. and thenit was helping her along the way. and then it was all over, swiatek�*s 37—match unbeaten run bolted. for kante, this is only the second time she has reached the fourth round of wimbledon in 15 attempts. we she has reached the fourth round of wimbledon in 15 attempts.- she has reached the fourth round of wimbledon in 15 attempts. we say in france, wimbledon in 15 attempts. we say in france. good — wimbledon in 15 attempts. we say in france, good wine _ wimbledon in 15 attempts. we say in france, good wine always _ wimbledon in 15 attempts. we say in france, good wine always ages - wimbledon in 15 attempts. we say in | france, good wine always ages while! on centre court, there was a chance to pay respect to sports stars and armed forces alike, but then it was down to business. coco gauff knows this court well and she got the better of fellow american amanda emerson over in the first set. then

6:37 pm
surprise, and reluctant to call it a shock because iga swiatek was saying herself she was struggling to find the transition from clay to grass. we know this incredible 37—match run which now comes to an end, how surprise for you with the result to heart today and the fact she was beaten in straight sets, the manner her defeat? ., beaten in straight sets, the manner her defeat?— beaten in straight sets, the manner herdefeat? ., ., i, . her defeat? you can only be somewhat surrised her defeat? you can only be somewhat surprised when — her defeat? you can only be somewhat surprised when it _ her defeat? you can only be somewhat surprised when it has _ her defeat? you can only be somewhat surprised when it has to _ her defeat? you can only be somewhat surprised when it has to end _ her defeat? you can only be somewhat surprised when it has to end at - her defeat? you can only be somewhat surprised when it has to end at some l surprised when it has to end at some point, this kind of freak, and as you say, her game is more suited to a clay, the bouncy service as she prefers, able to get the ball moving on court, you won't get that here but confidence can make you do amazing things although eventually, your tank starts running at lower and lower and i think she may have run dry today. i and lower and i think she may have run dry today-— run dry today. i love that line from a corneille — run dry today. i love that line from a corneille surname, _ run dry today. i love that line from a corneille surname, eating - run dry today. i love that line from a corneille surname, eating like i run dry today. i love that line from a corneille surname, eating like a| a corneille surname, eating like a good wine, and she felt good going into this and the brilliant result again serena williams before. at 32 years old, how important is for someone like cornet to get a result
6:38 pm
like this at a grand slam and believes she can be contender again? she had so much experience, she has been around for so long, has some amazing wins, and she is a feisty character, she has great energy and battles hard and the thing is, iga swiatek is always going to have the targets on her back and cornetjust came for her today with pure energy and experience. will came for her today with pure energy and experience.— and experience. will be fascinating to see what _ and experience. will be fascinating to see what transpires _ and experience. will be fascinating to see what transpires with - and experience. will be fascinating to see what transpires with coco i to see what transpires with coco gauff and petra kvitova out as well. on the british players, on court two katie boulter took on harmony tan, hip knocked serena williams out in the opening round. boulter was knocked out too and liam brodie also losing in straight states asjoe wilson now reports. court two lies on the perimeter of wimbledon, farfrom centre stage.
6:39 pm
that is where katie boulter place in round three, with slightly less energy than usual. at the top of the screen, her opponent was inspired, harmony tan. she had previously knocked out serena williams, you may remember. afterjust 51 minutes, this match finished with a double fault, all rather dispiriting. unless, of course, you are supporting harmony. quite right, she was great. no british player matches fred perry, he won all four grand slam titles, but one man here shares his birthplace. best playerfrom stockport is how liam brodie has described himself. to he faced australia's alex de minaur, the demon. speed, power, precision, serious combination. brodie was trying like a hedge against a brick
6:40 pm
wall, two sets down, come on. ever kept open standards, de minaur might falter, and that was a break back. respect earned by both men. just listening in there to lay brodie, a wildcard, already a great run for him, what you see learn from this and how does he take it forward? i this and how does he take it forward? ~ this and how does he take it forward?— this and how does he take it forward? ~ , , forward? i think he can 'ust see that he can i forward? i think he can 'ust see that he can mix fi forward? i think he can 'ust see that he can mix it h forward? i think he can 'ust see that he can mix it with h forward? i think he can just see that he can mix it with the - forward? i think he can just see that he can mix it with the best| that he can mix it with the best players in the world, he beat a former top ten player in the previous round at a tough opponent in these conditions. when put is slower than other grass courts and to come back from 11 games in a row and then to win in the fourth set, and then to win in the fourth set, and amazing achievements, really astonishing, but it would have trained him massively and come back the next day ready to fire, it's hard. �* ., ., ., ,
6:41 pm

6:42 pm
playing stefanos tsitsipas and kyrgios, who is the biggest character left in the men's draw at the moment, a former quarterfinalist, only reaching the second week of a grand slam and two occasions, his time to soak high, he should be doing better in that. he says he is feeling better than ever before, playing the fourth seed tsitsipas, who on paper is the favourite, going to serve at the moment and may be going to a tie—break. tsitsipas a spring in his way out on grass at the moment, he won the title in mallorca going into wimbledon and. kyrgios really wants to deliver, can he do it at this championships finally at a grand slam? centre court, found that i will get going just as we speak against lorenzo sonego, nadal serving first, i will keep you updated on that. for the month, back to ben in the bbc sport centre.
6:43 pm
from south london to south africa, where wales were beaten with the last kick of an extraordinary first summer international in pretoria, denying them a first win over the springboks in their homeland. 32—29 it finished. earlier, england coach eddiejones described their 30—28 defeat to australia as painful, whilst ireland were soundly beaten by by new zealand. patrick gearey rounds up the action. nearly n early a50 0 nearly a500 feet above sea level, up against a team on top of the world, wales could be forgiven a little vertigo. in pretoria, the air is thinner and oxygen is scarcer but gas is no problem for lewis rees—zammit and. flew around south africa, the world champions. twice in the first half, the winger took flight, while leading by 15 at the break. so, south africa return to what they are good at, master bulldozers. they smashed themselves back into this. they crept ahead with wales down to 12 men are.
6:44 pm
somehow, this wasn't over, though. the world summit enough manpower and a historic victory was one dan biggar kick away, it was that close. and it would get more painful, into overtime, south africa with their owner chance, winning a breathless, barely believable test. we witnessed a lively night in perth, despite settling and then pulling hair. that was the air, this was the but, australia having to play most of the match a man down. the wallabies were brought level and and also knows when an eggestein's worried. whatever the circumstances, their heads relentlessly towards weakness. in's boats used to coach them, now editor and staring at a row with the world cup next year. by that time, arendt were not yet be 21. under
6:45 pm
successful debut, he gave his team something to clean to. remember the name it but probably forget the game. meanwhile, across the tasman sea, one of the most daunting prospect in sports, new zealand haven't lost at eden park in 28 years. the way ireland started, that record seemed to imperil. this try the high point. new zealand lets them, all out all black attack, ireland have to more tests to try and get a result. england's cricketers have provided plenty of entertainment so far this summer with their new, swashbuckling approach. against india, though, in the rearranged final test match, they've found life a lot tougher. following rishabh pant�*s century yesterday, india's tail—enders put england — and specifically stuart broad — to the sword today, before the bowlers put them firmly on top at edgbaston. craig templeton reports.
6:46 pm
grey skies above edgbaston, time for another indian batter to it things up. revenger educator waited patiently while his partner stole the show on day one, now it was his turn. a swish of the bat and india had another century, chad hr's first outside of his homeland, surely worth a few more switches. it would take real quality to get rid of him, something james anderson has in abundance. now time for some history. whenjasprit bumrah aged stuart broad forfour, history. whenjasprit bumrah aged stuart broad for four, there is already been 20 runs from the over. are the most ever in tests? 28. it went up to 35 and put broad in the record books for all the wrong reasons. anderson finally put an end to the carnage and there was some consolation for broad. india had been 98—5, the next 116 a cause for concern. especially considering the form of england's openers. alex lees
6:47 pm
out. perhaps a good time for those grey skies to become darker. with the covers off, it was probably�*s turn. a dismissal that has become all too familiar,. even with root and purser at the crease, it has been india's day so far. ——joe —— joe root has now gone for caught by rishabh pant and leipzig this is the state of play nearing the end of day two. india all out for a16. england 77—3 in reply, with yorkshire dquoe root and jonny bairstow at the crease, seeing out an awkward final hour after that long rain delay. there is a better forecast for the remainder of the test, though. full highlights are bbc four at 7pm. there was a dramatic finish on the second stage of the tour de france, with a crash less than two miles from the end catching out favourite tadej pogacar and chris froome. neither lost time.
6:48 pm
fabiojakobsen, the man picked ahead of mark cavendish, won the sprint as wout van aert moved into the leader's yellow jersey. the great british summer came out to play in qualifying for the british grand prix at silverstone. a soggy session saw a spaniard smiling as ferrari's carlos sainz weathered the damp conditions to claim the first pole position of his formula one career, ahead of championship leader max verstappen. lewis hamilton will start fifth. joe lynskey has the story. 100,000 fans at silverstone were braced for every outcome. while the rain it may be predictable, right now, this sport throws up surprises. max verstappen is the champion but this track is one man's manor. lewis hamilton won seven of the last eight british grand prix is but this year, he is off the pace. his team thought the ring to tell him but to qualify in fifth was his worst place here for eight years. hamilton's 98 points off the lead where verstappen
6:49 pm
is so consistent. the dutchman qualified second but few begrudge the man in front. colour science has raced in f1 for seven years. 150 grand prix, he had not once been on pole until now. the man from spain on top in the rain and while the skies could clear by tomorrow, this race is still tough to predict. before the rain came out, jamie chadwick continued her imperious form in the women's w series, with her fourth win in four races this season. the briton took the chequered flag more than 19 seconds ahead of her nearest rival after streaking clearfrom pole position and extending her lead in the drivers standings to a mammoth 39 points. britain's abi pulling also made the podium in third. before we head back to wimbledon, tributes have been paid to the former scotland and rangers goalkeeper andy goram, who has died. he was 58. goram was capped a3 times for his country at football
