seeing offjabeur 6—4, 6—4. she had been close to going out, jessica pegula, she was the player to put out elina svitolina. she beat five seeded players in the end. the number 142 in the world who loss the french open final in 2019 who has come out of nowhere to create a shock and an upset against 0ns jabeur who lost last year's final and faces heartbreak again. we've been hearing from both players. let's start with the champion on this incredible day for her. fitter this incredible day for her. after everything _ this incredible day for her. after everything i've _ this incredible day for her. after everything i've been _ this incredible day for her. in everything i've been through, i had a cast last year and this is amazing that i can stand here and hold this. tennis is crazy! i want to thank my box. all of you guys are amazing. my

little sister, she is crying up there. ijust enjoyed the two weeks so much. it was exhausting but so grateful and proud of myself. i think this is the most painful loss of my— think this is the most painful loss of my career. it's going to be a tough — of my career. it's going to be a tough day— of my career. it's going to be a tough day today for me, but i'm not going _ tough day today for me, but i'm not going to _ tough day today for me, but i'm not going to give up. i'm going to come back stronger and maybe win a grand slam one _ back stronger and maybe win a grand slam one day. | back stronger and maybe win a grand slam one day-— slam one day. i am here with tracy austin. thank _ slam one day. i am here with tracy austin. thank you _ slam one day. i am here with tracy austin. thank you for _ slam one day. i am here with tracy austin. thank you for being - slam one day. i am here with tracy austin. thank you for being back. austin. thank you for being back with us. i know you are commentating on that match. let's start with marketa vondrousova. an unseeded player making history here by winning the title. what did you make of her performance? i winning the title. what did you make of her performance?— of her performance? i thought she handled the _ of her performance? i thought she handled the moment _ of her performance? i thought she handled the moment beautifully. i of her performance? i thought she | handled the moment beautifully. it is such a big deal to go out on centre court to try to win wimbledon, herfirst major centre court to try to win wimbledon, her first major ever. she's only ever one one title on the

wta tour and it was quite a small one if you is back so this was a hugejump upfor one if you is back so this was a hugejump up for her and she was able to hold her nerve, play beautifully with so much finesse and feel and then she would inject pace and she just really disrupted the play of 0ns jabeur and she did and she just really disrupted the play of 0nsjabeur and she did a masterfuljob, she really deserved to win. masterful “ob, she really deserved to win. ., . , ., to win. how much did it help that the expectation _ to win. how much did it help that the expectation wasn't _ to win. how much did it help that the expectation wasn't on - to win. how much did it help that the expectation wasn't on her - the expectation wasn't on her shoulders? she only won four matches on grass prior to these championships. beat five seeded players, was very close to going out againstjessica pegula. even this final, the talk was about on stubble, not about to marketa vondrousova and that seem to help? i agree with you. everything was on 0ns jabeur. she is the favourite, she is going to win, she has won a few titles on grass. she is the better grass court player. she lost in the final last year and how much she wants it and what this would mean to her. and for vondrousova, it was really helpful that she didn't feel the pressure. she went out and played with freedom. she is

unseeded, 42 in the world, most unlikely for her to take the final and actually win the title so i think that really helped to free her up think that really helped to free her up and 1's job was tied up think that really helped to free her up and 1'sjob was tied up in knots and when you are tied up in knots, you want the ball to come at you hard and fast like 0ns jabeur has played the last three or four opponents so you are just reacting. what vondrousova did, she slows down the pace and now 0ns jabeur has to dictate the pace and have the racket speed which is much more difficult to do when you are tight.— to do when you are tight. people like me can _ to do when you are tight. people like me can watch _ to do when you are tight. people like me can watch it _ to do when you are tight. people like me can watch it and - to do when you are tight. people like me can watch it and say - to do when you are tight. people like me can watch it and say that person wants it too much. can you want it too much? is that possible? 0r want it too much? is that possible? or i think so. often, there are someplace you don't have the skill level to win a major but there are some that are right... some that you think, on grass, if he doesn't win here, he is going to win so many majors. he is ready when the us open. but there are some that are 0pen. but there are some that are right on the cusp and she is 28. she might be squeezing a little bit too tight and that is where the problem is for her right now. she has grown

so much because she worked with a mental coach. she says that she was winning matches here at wimbledon, the last three matches that she played, she lost the first set and came back to win. she said she has grown so much in the last six months. shejust has grown so much in the last six months. she just has to grown so much in the last six months. shejust has to pick grown so much in the last six months. she just has to pick to grown so much in the last six months. shejust has to pick to head down, blinders on and continue to try to improve. yes or no, do you think she can win this wimbledon title,? we know she think she can win this wimbledon title, ? we know she can, think she can win this wimbledon title,? we know she can, will she? i hope so. she was a crowd favourite and she came back and won it five is later so i do think on stripper well. ,, , later so i do think on stripper well. . , ., later so i do think on stripper well. ,, , ., ., later so i do think on stripper well. . , ., ., .,, well. she will be one of the most --oular well. she will be one of the most popular champions _ well. she will be one of the most popular champions we _ well. she will be one of the most popular champions we have - well. she will be one of the most popular champions we have ever| well. she will be one of the most - popular champions we have ever have here if you can get herself over the line. you mentioned alcaraz a short while ago. let's talk a little about him. his first wimbledon final, djokovic's night. we know the numbers are djokovic and all the different types of history he is chasing. from carlos alcaraz�*s perspective, this is his first wimbledon title. what will hill be he feeling like and how would you

rate your chances? i he feeling like and how would you rate your chances?— rate your chances? i would say at the beginning _ rate your chances? i would say at the beginning of— rate your chances? i would say at the beginning of the _ rate your chances? i would say at the beginning of the tournament | rate your chances? i would say at i the beginning of the tournament he was second favourite behind djokovic. djokovic the clear favourite because he has won it seven times, not when it the last four years. seven times, not when it the last fouryears. ifeel like seven times, not when it the last four years. i feel like the gap has shrunk because alcaraz is playing so well this tournament. the way he saw of casper runa tilly or holger rune in straight sets. these are top ten plays and he made it look so easy. he has adapted so well in the last three weeks since the start of queen's since he won that title. with each match i feel is more comfortable with the movement, he knows how to use all of his weapons. the drop shots, the slices, the power. i think he could really give novak djokovic a challenge tomorrow. i can't wait for that matchup, just to see how the young gun at 20 is going to play gets novak who has so much experience and is going after number 24. much experience and is going after number24. it much experience and is going after number 21n— much experience and is going after number24. , , . ., . number 24. it has been such a closed sho in number 24. it has been such a closed shop in terms — number 24. it has been such a closed shop in terms of _ number 24. it has been such a closed shop in terms of the _ number 24. it has been such a closed shop in terms of the men's _ number 24. it has been such a closed shop in terms of the men's title, - shop in terms of the men's title, are you also thinking this is going djokovic's way? fist

history, it is a third consecutive doubles title for him. he won the mixed doubles title last year and now it is the men's doubles, he is the first man to win both of those titles. since the 1920s, only the second british man to win the men's doubles in the open era and the man from liverpool has been telling us what it means to him to make history. what it means to him to make histo . ,, ., .,' ., what it means to him to make histo . ,, ., ., i. history. starting off a young boy, at palmerston _ history. starting off a young boy, at palmerston tennis _ history. starting off a young boy, at palmerston tennis club - history. starting off a young boy, at palmerston tennis club in - at palmerston tennis club in liverpool, with my... applause yeah, going out there is a small boy with my dad, obviously growing up with my dad, obviously growing up with my dad, obviously growing up with my brother. he's been very influential in my career growing up. yeah, this feeling at the moment doesn't get better. me and wesley came together 18 months ago. this year, this was one of my goals to win a grand slam and now we have done it. it feels very special.

neal skupski and neal sku pski and wesley neal skupski and wesley koolof had gone close, just haven't won that major title, gone close, just haven't won that majortitle, now gone close, just haven't won that major title, now it is in their hands. talking of major titles and in the hands, we have to talk about alfie hewett and gordon reid because they have won their fifth wimbledon men's wheelchair doubles title together, beating their opponents in what was a thrilling final. the top seeds coming from behind to win 3—6, 6-0, 6-3. with seeds coming from behind to win 3—6, 6—0, 6—3. with injuries, they have barely played together this year and yet they are doubles champions again. it has been a busy day for alfie hewett and gordon reid. alfie hewett is into the men's singles final here as well. job done for him on the fourth match point in the end against his opponents. beating him in straight sets to reach that final on court 0ne. seven grand slam singles titles for alfie but this is the one that is missing. this is the one that he is desperate for and he will pray for it tomorrow.

unfortunately, won't be against gordon reid, though, because gordon reid has gone out of the singles. the 2016 champion here, of course and he was beaten by the top seed. 0ne and he was beaten by the top seed. one of the men he beat in the doubles, the world number one who just won the french open beating alfie hewett. they will play each other tomorrow for the chance to be wimbledon champion for the first time in both of their cases. we look forward to that, we also look forward to that, we also look forward to that, we also look forward to alcaraz— djokovic. more on that later in the programme but let's hand back to the bbc sport centre and paul scott. away from wimbledon and the biggest football transfer of the summer so far has been confirmed. arsenal have signed england midfielder declan rice from west ham for an initialfee of £100 million. that could rise to £105 million with add—ons. jane dougall reports.

by a single second on stage 14 — won by young spaniard carlos rodriguez. drew savage reports. 1500 miles of racing and it still couldn't be tighter. two—time championjonas vingegaur has been closing in on the man in the yellow jersey, who beat him last year. the eight second time bonus for the first rider over the col dejoux plane was tadej pogacar�*s target. he raced away and look to leave jonas vingegaur behind but the dane hung in there and gradually clawed his way back. as the summit approached, tadej pogacar launched another of his trademark attacks but found his path blocked. and then the tables were turned, jonas vingegaur hit the tow boat button, stole the second and his lead was up from eight seconds to 12. another unexpected development on the descent to the finish. young spaniard carlos rodriguez overtook them both on the way to the stage win and third place overall. although he is nearly five months behind the race favourites,

for them, months behind the race favourites, forthem, every months behind the race favourites, for them, every second counts. another time bonus at the finish saw tadej pogacar make two seconds back. jonas vingegaur now leads by ten, the ending of this years tour is still to be written. let's head to paris where the world para—athletics championships continue, great britain will be hoping for more gold medals this evening, rachael laytham is there for us. rachael, dan pembroke is in action tonight, at what is his first world championships. give us his story. yes, paul. let me rive ou give us his story. yes, paul. let me give you a — give us his story. yes, paul. let me give you a bit _ give us his story. yes, paul. let me give you a bit of— give us his story. yes, paul. let me give you a bit of a — give us his story. yes, paul. let me give you a bit of a background. - give us his story. yes, paul. let me give you a bit of a background. dan | give you a bit of a background. dan pembroke was looking at competing at london 2012 olympics in the javelin but then he suffered an elbow injury which put him out and then his eyesight started to deteriorate. without run of bad luck, he decided to step away from sport. it wasn't until 2019 that he came back to sport but this time is a visually impaired athletes because of his

deteriorated eyesight. when he came back, he said that his muscle memory from being an able—bodied athlete was really strong, but he had to relearn how to throw as a visually impaired athletes because his coordination, balance was all off. but he is clearly a very quick learner because he shot up the ranks and he finally got time to shine as and he finally got time to shine as a games. not at the olympics in london 2012 but the paralympics in 2021 where he london 2012 but the paralympics in 2021where he won gold and now he is here for his first world championships. does he represent gb's best chance of a gold today? absolutely. he is currently sat in number one position stop gold medal position in the javelin and in the event isn't over yet so i can't call it for you. but he has thrown over 70 metres, he is really not far off the world record. he has some tough competition out there but he is really showing signs of a gold. before this event he said he is in the best shape of his power athlete life and it's his birthday tomorrow so what a better way to celebrate a

it's horse—racing's super saturday, the busiest day in the flat season with thejuly cup at newmarket the day's feature race. and it went to shaquille, the 5—2 favourite, who made—up for a terrible start, rearing out of the stalls and pulling like a train, to go on to win his second prestigious sprint race this season and give a first group one victory for substitute jockey rossa ryan. the t20 blast final at edgebaston, between somerset and essex, has been delayed due to rain. earlier in the semi—finals, there may be some tension in the 0verton household after surrey�*s jamie was caught out by his twin brother craig 0verton of somerset, whose side won by 24 runs. before that, essex booked their place in the final, beating holders hampshire by five wickets in a rain affected first semi. daniel sams top scored

with 29 for essex. to the women's ashes and what a turnaround it's been. england found themselves 6—0 down in the multi—format series. but it's now level at 6—6. tomorrow is the penultimate one—day match at the ageas bowl in southampton. victory would put england within touching distance of winning the series. earlier i spoke to nat sciver—brunt and she says england are delighted to still be in contention. we are we a re really we are really happy with being able to get over the line in the first one—day international in bristol. probably not quite playing how we wanted to, but we found a way to win which was amazing. hour wanted to, but we found a way to win which was amazing.— which was amazing. how difficult was it when ou which was amazing. how difficult was it when you went _ which was amazing. how difficult was it when you went 6-0 _ which was amazing. how difficult was it when you went 6-0 down - which was amazing. how difficult was it when you went 6-0 down in - which was amazing. how difficult was it when you went 6-0 down in terms | it when you went 6—0 down in terms of points to sort of keep going? did you and the team always believe that this series was still alive? i guess, you know, being in that position we didn't have any other

choice apart from front up and make sure that we are putting our best foot forward, really. and, yeah, i guess that belief is there certainly in our group more than it has been in our group more than it has been in the past. so, yeah, we're not going to back down until the last ball is bowled in the series. we will see how it goes tomorrow. min. will see how it goes tomorrow. win, lose, or will see how it goes tomorrow. win, lose. or draw. _ will see how it goes tomorrow. win, lose, or draw, how— will see how it goes tomorrow. win, lose, or draw, how big _ will see how it goes tomorrow. win, lose, or draw, how big a _ will see how it goes tomorrow. win, lose, or draw, how big a moment has this summer been for women's cricket do think in this country?— do think in this country? yeah, it has been so _ do think in this country? yeah, it has been so special. _ do think in this country? yeah, it has been so special. i've - do think in this country? yeah, it has been so special. i've been i do think in this country? yeah, it i has been so special. i've been lucky enough to play for england for ten years. seeing where it has come from to this summer, it feels like such a huge way to go. it is such an amazing thing to see and to be part of it feels really proud and sometimes i get a little bit emotional about it because we all

started off playing a sport that we love and wanted to play because we loved it. and now to see that many people come out to watch me still playing the sport i love is amazing. you talk about getting emotional, we've obviously had catherine in the commentary box who at times has found it difficult to commentate on these tense matches throughout the series. have you been speaking to her about how difficult that has been? ., , her about how difficult that has been? . , ., �* been? yeah, well, she won't let me foruet it. been? yeah, well, she won't let me forget it- she's _ been? yeah, well, she won't let me forget it. she's obviously _ been? yeah, well, she won't let me forget it. she's obviously had - been? yeah, well, she won't let me forget it. she's obviously had to - forget it. she's obviously had to commentate on me and some tricky moments in the matches. but i think she has taken to commentary pretty well and she seems to be enjoying it too. we obsolete talk about what has happened in the game but she is honestly living and breathing the matches from start to finish, just in a different capacity. she is enjoying herself up there in the commentary box.— enjoying herself up there in the commentary box. good luck to them tomorrow. alex carey has said he would stump

a batter in the same manner that saw him dismiss england'sjonny bairstow if the opportunity arose again. the australian wicketkeeper rolled the ball on to the stumps to take the wicket of his counterpart, who had left the crease thinking the over had ended. when he ducked, his first movements was pretty much out of his crease so i instinctively grabbed the ball, through the stumps down and the rest is history, as they say. i guess once the bales come off, it is up to the third umpire to deem it out or not out. or the on field umpires as well. it was given out and, yeah, to see how much has played out since then has been a little bit surprising. then has been a little bit surprising-— then has been a little bit surrisinu. . �*, ., ., surprising. that's all we have time for at the bbc _ surprising. that's all we have time for at the bbc sport _ surprising. that's all we have time for at the bbc sport centre. - so let's head back to wimbledon and chetan. this has been a day where marketa vondrousova has made history by becoming the first unseeded player

to win the women's singles titles beating on is jabeur but she has singles titles promised that she'll be back to win the title here. still so much tennis to come, we have seen neal skupski win and alfie hewett and gordon reid win back their title in the wheelchair title. behind us, we have thejunior title behind us and henry searle will play in the boys final tomorrow. it is over 60 years since britain has had a boy is a single champion and alfie hewett will go in the singles. the showpiece on centre court will be that men's final between novak djokovic and carlos alcaraz. djokovic and carlos alcaraz. djokovic chasing a roger fedor equalling eighth men's singles title, a 24th grand slam, against alcaraz, playing in his first wimbledon final. we have been hearing from both men. judging by the performances that we have seen from all the players, i think this is the best finalists

something that federer and nadal didn't do and that is when all four majors in the same year. carlos alcaraz, already us open champion, canny ad wimbledon? we will find out tomorrow. from me in the team, good night. hello there. summer holiday season in full swing. but the weather is certainly not playing ball at the moment. take a look at denbighshire a few hours ago, some of the showers really quite torrential. and they have been quite widespread as well across the country. we are now mid—way throuthuly. and you are right in thinking it's been a wet month. in fact, all of us have seen above—average rainfall, and there is little to indicate that we are going to see any significant change, certainly through this week. take a look at this. this is rainfall accumulation for the next few days, the darker blues denoting where we are going to see the heaviest of the rain. at least another 50 millimetres

to come for many of us over the next few days, adding to the totals we've already seen this month. low pressure is with us, then, to the north—west and circling around that low like a catherine wheel are these weather fronts that have been driving in plenty of showers, driven along by some blustery south—west winds. so some of the showers you can see, have merged together in bands, organised lanes, so showers or longer spells of rain throughout the day. some of those showers will fade through the evening and overnight, but there's still the risk of the odd rumble of thunder in those showers and more widespread rainfall, perhaps, across the north—west of scotland. 0vernight lows between 12 and 14 degrees. into sunday, the low pressure finally pulls away off to scandinavia. the winds will start to ease a touch and a north—westerly direction will be more of a feature in scotland. that's going to continue to feed in rain across north and west—facing coasts. elsewhere, still the risk of some showers, but hopefully lighter and not quite as widespread as the last couple of days.

the winds will be a feature, but not as strong either. so gusts of winds generally at around 35, maybe just 40 miles an hour, but certainly easing down as the day continues. top temperatures for sunday afternoon still a little bit subdued for this time of year — 17 to 21 celsius the high. looking further ahead, as we go into monday, a little ridge of high pressure quietens things down for a time before more wet weather set to arrive on tuesday, pushing in from the west. so if you start off dry, it is not going to last. and the outlook continues with sunny spells and scattered showers and those temperatures a little bit below par for this time of year.

live from london, this is bbc news. dozens of cities in southern europe remain on red alert — as temperatures continue to soar across the continent. rescue workers in south korea scramble to reach drivers trapped inside their cars submerged in an underground tunnel, as deadly floods sweep the country. and councils in england and wales call for a ban on the sale of disposable vapes by next year.
