Australia wins toss, sends West Indies in to bat in 3rd T20
BASSETERRE, St. Kitts (AP) — Australia won the toss and chose to bowl in the third game of the best-of-five Twenty20 international cricket series against West Indies on Friday. The Australians, who lead the series 2-0 after back-to-back victories in Kingston, Jamaica, named an unchanged lineup with veteran Glenn Maxwell to again open the batting with captain Mitch Marsh. West Indies have made two changes with allrounder Romario Shepherd coming in for the retired Andre Russell, while Jediah Blades makes his T20 international debut in place of Alzarri Joseph. Australia had a three-wicket win to open the series on Sunday on the back of half centuries by Cameron Green and debutant Mitch Owen. In the second game on Wednesday, Josh Inglis and Green led Australia to an eight-wicket victory, spoiling Russell's last game for West Indies. The back-to-back wins at Sabina Park extended Australia's streak to five in the Caribbean following the 3-0 test series sweep. —— West Indies: Brandon King, Shai Hope (captain), Roston Chase, Shimron Hetmyer, Rovman Powell, Sherfane Rutherford, Jason Holder, Gudakesh Motie, Akeal Hosein, Romario Shepherd, Jediah Blades. Australia: Mitch Marsh (captain), Glenn Maxwell, Josh Inglis, Cameron Green, Tim David, Mitchell Owen, Cooper Connolly, Ben Dwarshius, Sean Abbott, Nathan Ellis, Adam Zampa. ___

Lottie Woad takes two-shot lead over Nelly Korda in pro debut at Women's Scottish Open
Watch highlights from Round 2 action of the ISPS Handa Women's Scottish Open at Dundonald Links in North Ayrshire, Scotland. IRVINE, Scotland — Lottie Woad played bogey-free Friday and took advantage of unusually calm conditions toward the end to post a 7-under 65, giving the English star a two-shot lead over top-ranked Nelly Korda and Nanna Koerstz Madsen in the ISPS Handa Women's Scottish Open. Woad is making her professional debut, which only means she gets paid at the end of the week. She looks no different from the last couple of weeks, when she won the Women's Irish Open and then tied for third in the LPGA major in France at the Amundi Evian Championship. Korda birdied her last two holes for a 66 to get to within two shots, hopeful she is trending in the right direction as she goes for her first win of the season. Koerstz Madsen also shot 66. Woad, who played her college golf at Florida State, was at 12-under 132 after spending two days before the largest crowd at Dundonald Links, playing in the same group as Korda and Charley Hull of England. Woad's finish at the Evian Championship earned her an LPGA card, prompting her to turn pro. The Women's Scottish Open felt no different from her other July events. It was all about trying to ride the momentum. She dismissed the notion that she has started her pro career by taking a 36-hole lead in a tournament co-sanctioned by the LPGA and the Ladies European Tour. 'I played in seven majors now so I've had all that experience, and obviously the LET events, too,' Woad said. 'So wasn't really new things I guess. Kind of knew how to deal with it.' She has missed only two greens each of the last two rounds on the links course just to the north of Royal Troon on the Ayrshire coast. It's a strong field with the final major of the year, the AIG Women's Open, next week at Royal Porthcawl in Wales. The biggest help was the wind, or lack of it. The breeze gave way to calm conditions, and Woad ran off four birdies on the back to seize control. Korda, winless after a seven-victory season in 2024, made her lone mistake with a bogey on the par-5 18th as she made the turn. She handled the calm conditions on the front nine to get in the final group. 'Apparently this is not really Scottish weather. It's pretty soft, so I've been hearing this is not the typical weather and course they usually play out here,' Korda said. 'But overall, when you get good rounds under your belt, that's always a step in the right direction. My main focus is this week. I'm trying to finish as best as I possibly can.' Sei Young Kim had a 67 and was three shots behind, followed by Hyo Joo Kim (66) who was four shots off the pace.
