our headlines this evening: from the course to the courts, three golfers banned from the pga tour after their defection to the liv series are told by a judge, "you can't do both." another cricketer takes a step back, and it's one of the biggest names in the women's game, who needs a break from a busy schedule. ready for another major championships, with a companion she wouldn't wish on her worst enemy. athlete lina nielsen on her battle with ms. it is nice that we can absolutely sign our light on it and show people that it sign our light on it and show people thatitis sign our light on it and show people that it is not all doom and gloom. we will be live in munich as the opening ceremony of the european championship gets under way. hello and welcome to sportsday.

the battle raging in golf is becoming increasingly bitter, and not for the first time, has reached the courts. as players defect from the pga tour to join the controversial saudi—backed liv series, they're launching legal action to try and retain their place in the traditional tournaments in the us. the latest involves three golfers, all attempting to play in the season—ending fedex playoffs. their decision to play for liv led to them being banned. rory michael roy, an outspoken critic of those who have left the pga tour, is glad they have not been allowed back. pga tour, is glad they have not been allowed back-— pga tour, is glad they have not been allowed back. from my vantage point, common sense — allowed back. from my vantage point, common sense prevailed _ allowed back. from my vantage point, common sense prevailed and - allowed back. from my vantage point, common sense prevailed and i - allowed back. from my vantage point, | common sense prevailed and i thought it was the right decision. now that that has happened i think it lets us focus on the important stuff, which is the gulf, and we can all move forward and not have that sideshow going on for the next few weeks, which is nice.

our golf correspondent iain carter is with us. can you explain what happened in this court case?— can you explain what happened in this court case? judge beth labson freeman heard _ this court case? judge beth labson freeman heard from _ this court case? judge beth labson freeman heard from the _ this court case? judge beth labson freeman heard from the lawyers i freeman heard from the lawyers representing the pga and also from liv golf, and ultimately conceded that those who had gone to liv golf had done so with enough money in their contracts to make up for the fact they would be missing out on the pga tour. these players, talor gooch, mattjones, and hudson swafford were hoping to play in memphis this weekend, but the judge found that that was not a reason to invoke a temporary restraining order that would have allowed them to play. it

that would have allowed them to .la , , , ., that would have allowed them to play. it is interesting that we have an 0 tion play. it is interesting that we have an option to _ play. it is interesting that we have an option to settle _ play. it is interesting that we have an option to settle one _ play. it is interesting that we have an option to settle one aspect - play. it is interesting that we have an option to settle one aspect and move on to another, cameron smith is the latest high profile player to be linked to joining the the latest high profile player to be linked tojoining the liv the latest high profile player to be linked to joining the liv golf series. he was asked about those rumours. my goal here is to win the fedexcup play—offs. that is all i'm here for. if there is something i need to say regarding the pga tour or liv golf, it will come from cameron smith, not cameron percy. i am a man of my word. whenever you guys need to know anything, it will be said by me. the speculation is swirling around cameron smith at the moment, as it has done with golfers previously, is there any smoke without fire? you could easily _ there any smoke without fire? you could easily have _ there any smoke without fire? 7m. could easily have said no there any smoke without fire? 7m, could easily have said no they couldn't take, when asked if he was going to go, but he didn't. he didn't dispel the rumours in the immediate aftermath of his victory in st andrews. if he does go, it

will perhaps be the biggest coup for liv golf because they will have signed the world number two player at the very height of his powers, with no injury concerns, and that really could give liv golf a great deal of momentum and a great deal for the pga tour to consider, especially considering that they are going to a route of litigation. the case yesterday was just a forerunner of a legal process that could potentially determine the future of men's professional golf. i am interested — men's professional golf. i am interested about _ men's professional golf. i am interested about this - men's professional golf. i am interested about this momentum that you speak of for a liv golf, if they were to sign a player like cameron is a myth, the balance of power has seemed to shift a great deal since its announcement. at that time the pga tour could claim a moral high ground, but is it losing its grip in terms of that balance of power? the ke thin terms of that balance of power? tue: key thing from terms of that balance of power? tte: key thing from the terms of that balance of power? tt2 key thing from the pga tour is that they still have the support of rory

mcilroy and justin thomas, scottish effort, the world number one, and tiger woods. they are vital allies as far as the pga tour is concerned, but you are right, there is omentum thatis but you are right, there is omentum that is heading in the way of liv golf, simply because they have such deep pockets, and they are through so much money at these players. there are a lot of people in the pga tour waiting with bated breath, to see what the fallout will be at the end of the cups. let's see who goes then. 2. ~ end of the cups. let's see who goes then. . ~ ,., end of the cups. let's see who goes then. 2, ~' ,, , end of the cups. let's see who goes then. . ~ y., , . the ex—girlfriend of the former footballer ryan giggs has told a court she became "a slave to his every need and every demand". kate greville said the manchester united star made her feel there would be �*consequences�* if she didn't do as he said. ryan giggs denies assaulting and using controlling and coercive behaviour against ms greville, as well as assaulting her sister. our correspondent laura scott was in court.

it was on the eve of this trial that kate greville gave that victim statement in which she said she felt like a slave to ryan giggs. today, in court, she was asked of the comparisons were in a literal sense. she said that the former manchester united star made her feel that if she didn't do everything he said, there would be consequences. under questioning from the council, she was asked about her claim that mr giggs had thrown her out of her hotel room naked, and had caused bruising to her arm by dragging her. the defence said this account was completely manufactured, and read out a text message and she had sent to ryan giggs saying that this was caused by sex. later on, kate

greville was asked about issues with providing evidence to the case. she said that one of phones had fallen in a river, and another had been stolen. she admitted to deleting some messages from a pr colleague, the defence had said she had deliberately withheld information that would undermine the case against ryan giggs. kate greville denied this. let's have a quick look at some of today's other sports headlines. the qatar world cup is likely to start a day earlier than planned to allow the host nation to play the first match of the tournament. qatar's game against ecuador is the third match on monday 21st november, but fifa have been asked to move it to the sunday. the netherlands�* english coach mark parsons has left the job after the defending champions went out of the women's euros at the quarter final stage. he had taken overfrom sarina wiegman when she left tojoin england last year.

actually became the australian captain, the youngest australian captain, the youngest australian captain back in 2014. tt captain, the youngest australian captain back in 2014.— captain, the youngest australian captain back in 2014. it has been re captain back in 2014. it has been pretty much _ pretty much nonstop for her since then, if you look at the past 11 months, she has led astray earlier in two multiformat series against england and india, she has won a world cup with australia, she has played for the melbourne stars and captained them, and most recently has played in the commonwealth games. that is pretty much been a treadmill for her going back to when she first took on the captaincy eight years ago. it is obviously something she has decided, she is not because timing on it, she said it is indefinite, the melbourne stars have said they will give as much time as she needs. it is an interesting one, you don't see it as often in the women's game as you do in the men's game, but it has been

since a very young age that she has been captaining australia. you make the oint been captaining australia. you make the point there _ been captaining australia. you make the point there that _ been captaining australia. you make the point there that there _ been captaining australia. you make the point there that there is - been captaining australia. you make the point there that there is the - the point there that there is the assumption that the women's game has an easier schedule than the men's game, you have seen ben stokes take a step back, is it a correct assumption, because if cricket is taking up the schedule so much of these players, it is inevitable that you will see some take a step away? yes, but for different reasons. i would say that the women, as much as the men, in the past, has spent a lot of time in bubbles due to the pandemic and going in and out of countries as well. i know that speaking to a lot of players, that has really ta ken speaking to a lot of players, that has really taken a massive toll. that might be part of the issue for meg as well, but i feel it is cricket's tipping point. 2022 is all

of the —— is where all of the things we've expected might happen are all happening at once. broadcasters want wall—to—wall cricket, but they also want the best players available. for someone to play international cricket, but also secure the future. something does have to give. it is giving a bit of ben stokes, but it might be a wake—up call. i'm not sure who is actually going to do the waking up and make the decisions, because at the moment, cricket is barrelling forward, and we are not exactly sure where it will end up. i'm not sure any australians know at this point. just a couple of days after one multi—sport event finished, here comes another. the commonwealth games has made way for the european championships, and a lot of the athletes involved in both haven't had much time to get themselves from birmingham

to munich, where the latter starts tomorrow. one of the british team involved in munich is an athlete that last week revealed the extent of her battle just to compete, let alone represent her country in major championships. lina nielsen was diagnosed with multiple sclerosis nine years ago, and on the eve of the world championships last month had a relapse. she says she wouldn't wish ms on her worst enemy, but still overcame the difficulties she faced in eugene to appear at the commonwealth games, and now she's headed to germany. there are three kinds of ms, for several years i've been able to be healthy and keep running.

commentator: she ran a personal best, so she has been in good form. before the world championships i had a bit of a flare up, so very bad timing. i noticed left—sided numbness, so i couldn't hear my left arm or my left leg. i wasn't as coordinated as i usually am, i managed to make it to her hurdle for, and then ijust faded badly. you go to these world championships in the best shape of your life, you are tuned in, and you know exact how to run the race, and then it is so practice, but to feel that kind of difference in the body, you wonder how you are going to run the race. it is about trying not to panic, i just told myself to go out and run

anyway, but once i finish the race all the emotion came out. it was a personal battle to come to the start today, so i'm proud of myself, but it is a personal battle. in a way, i think sports has been my saviour. having movement, i became a qualified yoga instructor, ms attacks the nerve structure, so moving your body gives it a bit more power to heal. it is sending the signals in the body saying, ok, we are using these nerves, you might want to fix them. i just want to show that you can recover. i have had so many messages from so many people who deal with ms, or family members who have ms, and it isjust

really nice. when i got diagnosed it was a very dark period, and i didn't have many symbols of public figures to look up to, and it is nice that we can finally show people that it is not all doom and gloom. we have the european championships next week, i have been training, i managed to get a good session in this week, and very positive about it, we fired on surfing across crossed it goes well. —— we flied out on saturday, fingers crossed it goes well. out on saturday, fingers crossed it aoes well. . . out on saturday, fingers crossed it aoes well. , , ., out on saturday, fingers crossed it aoeswell. , , ., , ., , out on saturday, fingers crossed it aoeswell. , , ., , goes well. this is a story you will be following _ goes well. this is a story you will be following in _ goes well. this is a story you will be following in munich, - goes well. this is a story you will be following in munich, there - goes well. this is a story you will be following in munich, there is i goes well. this is a story you will| be following in munich, there is a lot to look forward to over the next 11 days? lot to look forward to over the next 11 da s? ,., 2, lot to look forward to over the next 11 da s? ,., ., ., ., , 11 days? good evening, and what is and has been _ 11 days? good evening, and what is and has been a _ 11 days? good evening, and what is and has been a beautiful _ 11 days? good evening, and what is and has been a beautiful sunny - 11 days? good evening, and what is and has been a beautiful sunny dayj and has been a beautiful sunny day here in munich. scorching temperatures, oras here in munich. scorching temperatures, or as the germans

we know she limped out of those world championships. she is surely the favourite in the 100 and 200 metres. if we are the distance, you're looking at the likes of laura miller and jake white and keeley hutchinson. we like to call the norwegian mr 400 metres. there will be a pole vault superstar here as well. one of the biggest cheers will go through germany's long jump champion. an absolute superstar. plenty of happening to quench even the biggest sporting thirsts. iiit the biggest sporting thirsts. in front of that iconic munich olympic stadium, thank you very much indeed. it's european football's version of the community shield, but this year's super cup not

only brings together the winners of the champions league and europa league, it also provides a rematch of one of the most famous matches in history. real madrid and eintracht frankfurt haven't met since the 1960 european cup final at hampden, won 7—3 by the spanish side. ferenc puskas scored four, and alfredo di stefano a hattrick in front of more than 127,000. still a record crowd for the final. it brought real�*s fifth european cup, and tonight they'll be trying to win the super cup for a fifth time too. that would be a record they'd share with barcelona and ac milan. it is a very important trophy for us. at the start of the season, we want to start well. every competition for us is important. and, yes, we remember last time we lost it against atletico and we don't want to feel, have that feeling again. we are here to win and we will give everything tomorrow and hopefully to start the season in the best possible

way with winning the trophy. we will finish with news that sportsmanship can start pretty young. this little league player was hit on the head with a pitch. he spotted that the picture was on tears on the mound, and went to console him, and even went to say, hey, you're doing just great. there were a few selves from the crowd as well, and if you are a parent, i think you will totally get why. before we end up incomplete floods of tears, we are going to say goodbye. thank you so much for your company, more on bbc news, but for now it is goodbye.

hello, good evening, let mejust bring you up—to—date on some breaking news coming from the scottish highlands. police are saying that a man has died and three other people have been injured after what is believed to have been a series of shootings in the scottish islands. as of 39—year—old man has been arrested and taken to hospital in inverness. kate forbes, the msp, has said that it has been one of the worst days she can recall in the history of sky and lochalsh. our correspondent is there in the isle of skye. correspondent is there in the isle of s e. ., , correspondent is there in the isle ofs e. ., , , , of skye. tonight, this community is ve much of skye. tonight, this community is very much one _ of skye. tonight, this community is very much one which _ of skye. tonight, this community is very much one which is _ of skye. tonight, this community is very much one which is in _ of skye. tonight, this community is very much one which is in shock. i very much one which is in shock. major police incidents like this are very rare in this part of the

country, the isle of skye, of course, very popular with tourists at this time of year, very busy with people enjoying their summer break, but locals here described how a major emergency response and police presence descended here on the early part of today. what is notable about this incident is that it started here in the isle of skye, before spreading to the mainland. we have just had an update from police scotland, just in the last hour, that a 47—year—old man has died and three others are injured following a series of linked incidents in the area this morning. some of which involved a firearm being discharged. a quick recap of the details that we have so far, police had originally been called to a property in task of eight in the slate area of the isle of skye, 32—year—old woman was found to have been seriously injured, and

she has now been taken to hospital in glasgow. a short time later there was a second incident, where a firearm was discharged, and a 47—year—old man was pronounced dead at the scene. there was then a third linked incident on the mainland in the village, and a firearm was discharged again, and a man and women have been taken to hospital. there are no details of their conditions which have been released. police scotland confirmed just after lunchtime that a 39—year—old man has been arrested in connection with these linked incidents, and as you say, kate forbes, the msb for the isle of skye, lochaber and bada knox says that this appears to be the worst day in the history of the isle of skye and lochalsh. there will be a significant police presence here in these areas as investigations continue, that they believe the situation is contained and there is

no risk to the wider community. thank you very much indeed, that is our correspondent in sky. —— in the isle of skye. there will be a significant police presence in the coming days, and they say they will be working with partners to help the local community. i would like to assure people that we are treating these incidents as contained with no wider threat to the public. we will, of course, bring you much more on this throughout evening on bbc news, but first, here is the weather forecast. the heatwave is set to continue as we had two this week, in fact there is an amber weather warning in force for extreme heat. that is the second highest level of alert. it is bad for most of england, as far north as manchester, leeds and sheffield, as well as cornwall and eastern wales

through to the end of the day on sunday. we won't see the exceptional time shows that we saw back injuly, that it a sustained period of heat, weather fronts are out towards the north—west of scotland. many countries in the mid teens, some miss and low cloud in northern ireland, perhaps down... we have some rain in northern areas of scotland, that for most of us it is blue sky and sunshine. cloud laughing am sure it these close, temperatures and was a mid 30s for parts of the midlands potentially tomorrow. we still have all of that hot air moving in from the near continent on the easterly wind, so the chance of a bit of a cloud perhaps lapping onshore towards eastern coastal areas, the i century will tend to be further west. west of rutland, in central southern england, perhaps the west england, temperatures rising to 35 or even 36

celsius for these areas. on saturday could turn even warmer still, with 36 or perhaps 37 celsius. these high temperatures are most likely very central southern england, perhaps wiltshire enters surrey and hampshire. it is always good to be cooler towards coastal areas, expect a nice sea breeze. these are the temperatures for our capital cities as we head to the next days or so. if you take a look at sunday, we can see some cloud moving from the south, and that heralds the big change at the start of next week. could be a bit of patchy rain next week on sunday, it won't amount to very much at all. next week, a drop in temperature and the chance of some heavy thundery downpours as well. some unstable moist air moving in from the south, it could help to start off a few showers, but as with all showers, they can be hit or miss not everywhere will see them.

hello, i'm lewis vaughanjones, this is outside source. first to new york. where former president donald trump has remained silent under oath, during an investigation into his family's business. it comes just days after the fbi executed an unprecedented search of his florida estate, as part of a separate investigation as trump considers another run for the presidency, could these legal issues block his path to the white house? as several blasts rock a russian airbase in crimea, ukraine's president pledges to capture the whole peninsula. and under pressure over soaring energy costs,
