to the tony finau. —— a funjob swap, but may be worth sticking to their own friend now. we began sportsday focusing on the tour de france — but we'll finish with a race that takes place at a snail‘s pace. what could it be? this was the scene in norfolk, the annual world snail racing championship. the prestigious annual tournament, which has been running for over half a century, sees snails placed near the middle with the first one to reach the outer circle deemed the winner. you have got to watch it for a while. hot and humid conditions meant the pace was more sluggish this year — there still had to be a winner though and that honour went to hosta. you have to shell out a lot of money for a prize snail like that. trust me, i have had my feelers out for a while. look at him! the proud owner received a silver tanka rd stuffed with lettuce leaves. i would rather have a beer in mind. well done to the winner. that's all from sportsday. we'll have more throughout the evening. probably not snail slow. goodbye. —— rob lee not you are watching bbc news. the head of ukraine's secu

now, there are a lot of players who we did not know who they were, like alexander lombard, and tony finaun the us tour. it's a chance for them to make an entrance. he is one of the longest hitters in the us. it is very open, and that is exciting in this tournament. he is one of 70 players who could win this week. david, many thanks. hopefully we will be seeing you again before our coverage ends. thanks very much indeed for the time being. it is worth pointing out as well, spare a thought for players who perhaps have not produced those scores they will have wanted to in the opening round. jhonattan vegas of venezuelan committee finished on 5—over as well today. probably understandable when you consider the journey that he has faced to get here. he had these issues, he realised his visa was going to run out on the day he was due to travel. delay in getting his passport back as well. a delayed flight to deal with from houston to new york. that saw him take another flight to toronto instead. he only arrived in glasgow this morning. that subsequently saw him having to take a helicopter flight,
