britain'sjohanna konta pulled off one of the day's upsets by knocking out the two—time champion petra kvitovathe french open last month, but she lost the first set to kvitova 6—4. that seemed to fire up the number 19 seed. she immediately broke to love and went on to take the next set 6—2. konta dominated the decider, and despite a late recovery from kvitova, she won it 6—4 to seal her place in the last eight. she'll play world number 54 barbora strycova tomorrow. i feel ruinously grateful to be here, so i am just happy to still be in the event, to be playing each match the way i am competing and it really pleased with that and to be playing the best players in the world and coming through in tough matches again. so there is not much more you can ask for as a professional tennis player. she's arguably been the story of the tournament so far, but 15—year—old coco gauff‘s fairy tale run at wimbledon has come to an end after she was beaten in straight sets by the former world number one simona halep. gauff beat venus williams in the opening round, but the seventh seed halep was determined not to

the sixth seed petra kvitova is also out, losing to british number one joanna konta while seventh seedhalep is into the quarter—finals at the expense of 15—year—old coco gauff. her dream run here is over at wimbledon after she was beaten by the former world number one in straight sets. you don't really use expect this kind of support when you're not in your home country but i felt like i was playing in new york somewhere. i'm really ha p py playing in new york somewhere. i'm really happy people believed in me. in the men's draw, some familiar faces remain. third seed rafa nadal and defending champion novak djokovic are in the last eight after winning in straight sets and rival roger federer didn't waste any time at all against matteo barry tina from italy. he took the first set in i7 from italy. he took the first set in 17 minutes and he cruised to victory and into the last eight, where he will play nishikori from japan. the performances are still going up naturally, you know how the surface reacts and how the balls are flying, all these things, you can play closer to the lines and obv

two—time champion petra kvitova booked her place in the last 16 with a straight sets win over the unseededagda linette. she'llfacejohanna konta next. we'll talk about that in a moment. as kvitova progresses, there was another big name casualty on the women's side of the draw — the fourth seed kiki bertens. she was a quarter finalist last year but bertens was beaten by 33 year old ba rbora strycova in straight sets. feels like it's happening up in the women's draw. annabelle is with me, let's start with konta because it's the match we watch today started slowly but found her feet. selling price because of sloan stevens is playing a high level and she had her measure for a site and three quarters i would say, the match was teetering. just trying to look uncomfortable he saw her looking across the support camp gesturing to the massive she couldn't get a breakthrough, and then suddenly she died deep, found that momentum shift and when she got hold of it, the rest is history, she went on an absolute mission to the final set, andi absolute mission to the final set, and i think psychologically, s

it‘s only the second time thatjohanna konta has reached this round, she faces two champion petra kvitovaght champion deon taylor wilde has been agreed for next february. they drew their last bout in december. —— with deontay wilder. i will be back in 15 minutes. see you then. the united nations is being urged to take stronger action to protect christians facing persecution around the world. carried out by the bishop of truro — says they‘re the most widely targeted religious group. he says governments in the middle east and north africa should do more to protect religious freedoms. well, the bishop of truro, revd canon philip mounstephen canjoin us now... good morning. welcome. so, tell us how you perceive the scale. you said they are the most persecuted religious group in the world. where in particular and what is happening? i think the remarkable thing about this is it seems to have come out of almost a clear blue sky. it almost crept up on us. the fact is today that the persecution of christians isa that the persecution of christians is a global phenomenon on the. it ma nifests is a gl

johanna konta had a great win against petra kvitova, it didn't work out yesterday for her and there hasess conference. what do you make of all that? well, the overriding thing is she has got to another quarterfinal of a slam off the back of what happened in paris, the brilliant run as well in rome. herform and confidence isjust going up and up and up. over the last 18 months she is just improving all the time, she has got a great coach around her and it's normal to get asked certain questions, but i think she was right to bat it back and concentrate on the good things that are happening to her tennis because there is an awful lot to be positive about johanna konta. first up on centre court is novak djokovic, the defending champion, against david goffin of belgium, who is playing in his first wimbledon quarterfinal. they are going with serve in the first set. behind me is roberto bautista agut, the only man in the men's singles to drop a set, and he is a breakto in the men's singles to drop a set, and he is a break to the good against guido pella. on centre is roger federer against kei n

petra kvitova last won the title here back in 2014, and she is the sixth seed this year. monday. the united states have won the women's world cup for a record fourth time. they beat the netherlands 2—0 in the final in lyon. megan rapinoe scored their first from the penalty spot. that took her tally to six goals and won her the golden boot. rose lavelle scored their second, to confirm the usa's status as the dominant nation in women's football. it's unbelievable, just to know all of the people in our group that put in so much work. obviously the players, we have all our friends and family here. it's like — it's surreal. i don't know how to feel right now, it's ridiculous. so the usa retained their title, and there were chants from fans of "equal pay" during the celebrations. and, after a tournament that's broken records for viewing figures, notjust here in the uk but across the world, one former england star couldn't be more proud of her sport. it's not being shoved down people's throat. people now want to watch women's foot well. and actually, not women's foot well. and a

she'll play the sixth seed and two time fomrer champion petra kvitova tomorrow in the last 16. the bbc sport webiste. well phil neville didn't particularly enjoy it, calling england's third place playoff at the world cup ‘nonsense' and the players were pretty crestfallen afterwards too. they lost to sweden in nice after going 2—0 down in the first 22 minutes sofia jakobsson getting the second. england rallied later in the first half and got a goal thanks to fran kirby. and their comeback would have been complete were it not for another intervention from the var. just like in the semi—final against the usa, ellen white thought she'd scored an equaliser. but replays showed she'd handled the ball in the build up. it finished 2—1. i just think maybe there was a carry on from the emotion. and the two goals, actually, probably sparked us into a bit of life. after that, i don't think i've seen us play better after that, after that first 20 minutes. i thought the courage to keep going forward, the energy at the end, both teams were on their knees, to be fair. they gave everything. we g

konta beat another czech, the two time champion petra kvitova in three sets yesterday.re for a reason. there is eight players left because these are the eight best players of the tournament. that is how you go into the next match, i am playing an opponent who deserves to be there because she has earned her right and her way to be there as well. that means she is playing great tennis and that is what i am looking forward to. that is all i‘ve got to look forward to because there is nothing guaranteed after that. kim clijsters has reached the wimbledon semi—finals twice, and she believes konta has the game make it through today. it is great to see that she is playing her best tennis again. she played well a couple of years ago and made it to the semis. and to see her in the semifinals again and playing with confidence, that is something i miss about a year or so. it was almost a very... like she didn‘t know how to play any more. at times. insecure about her game plan. and now it feels like it has fallen back into place and she looks confident and excited and healthy. anyth
