June 20, 2016

Russia 0, Wales 3 Wales hero Gareth Bale hailed the best night of his international career after they routed Russia to pip England to first place in Group B and, in theory, an easier draw for the Euro 2016 knockout stages.

USGA were right to treat worthy winner Dustin Johnson the way they did at US Open

June 20, 2016

It was nothing short of phenomenal for Dustin Johnson to come back from the disappointment of last year at Chambers Bay – and the fuss around his delayed penalty this time – to win the US Open on Sunday night. Johnson, who missed the chance to win a first Major 12 months ago when he [...]
Tottenham set to sign Southampton’s Victor Wanyama for knock-down price

June 20, 2016

Tottenham manager Mauricio Pochettino is poised to sign Victor Wanyama for a second time after Spurs agreed a knock-down fee of £11m for the Southampton and Kenya midfielder. The price is less than the £12.5m Saints paid Celtic in 2013 and Tottenham have been able to drive a hard bargain because Wanyama has only one [...]
Euro 2016 betting: England can get the win they need to top Group B

June 19, 2016

At half-time against Wales Roy Hodgson must have been wondering if the man upstairs had something against him. England completely dominated their opening fixture against Russia yet succumbed to a 92nd minute equaliser by Vasili Berezutski. And then Gareth Bale’s free-kick just before the interval crept past Joe Hart to leave the Three Lions in serious [...]
Euro 2016 betting: Wounded Welsh look ready to bounce back and make history

June 19, 2016

Wales can book their place in the last 16 by beating Russia in Toulouse on Monday evening. In fact, even a draw should be good enough for Chris Coleman’s men to prolong their stay in the tournament. Only a last-gasp Daniel Sturridge winner prevented them from earning a point against England last Thursday and it [...]

Jockey Ryan Moore hailed Aidan O’Brien as “one of the greats” after Order Of St George earned the trainer a seventh Gold Cup win at Royal Ascot yesterday/on Thursday. The 10/11 favourite hit the front late in the two-and-a-half mile race and beat Mizzou into second by three lengths, with Sheikhzayedroad third. Order Of St [...]
Credit to Roy Hodgson for saving the day – and his job – with the boldest decisions of his England reign

June 16, 2016

Roy Hodgson cut a worried figure during the first half. His team were made to scrap by Wales; it was not going well. He rubbed his brow and knew that, as things stood, he probably only had 45 minutes left as England manager. Defeat to Wales would surely have meant he was out of a job [...]
Horse racing betting: Keep it Quiet in the Commonwealth Cup

June 16, 2016

They may be outnumbered in Friday afternoon’s Commonwealth Cup (3.40pm), but I’m backing a filly to come out on top in the battle of the three-year-old sprinters. Only three fillies stand their ground against nine colts in the second running of one of the feature races on the penultimate day of Royal Ascot. However, in [...]
