Charley Hull twice collapses, carted off after Evian WD
The 29-year-old Hull was carted off just three holes into her opening round at Evian Resort in France with what broadcasters were describing as a virus. Earlier in her round, Hull was shown sitting down near a bunker on the third hole. She then reportedly collapsed twice on the fourth tee.

Hull received treatment during a 15-minute medical break before she attempted to hit her tee shot on the fourth hole, after which she collapsed for the second time. That's when Hull called it quits.
Hull's withdrawal ends a nice run by the world No. 19 in majors, in which she has posted back-to-back T-12 finishes, at the U.S. Women's Open and KPMG Women's PGA. She was third at the 2022 Evian.

Liverpool transfer news: Reds get €100m midfielder boost
Mac Allister to Real Madrid is not happening This has been a saga for the last few months, although nothing has really come from it until now. Alexis Mac Allister was named dropped in a lot of Spanish reports about becoming their new Luka Madrid or Tony Kroos replacement, but that interest looked to be dropped when it appeared as though Angelo Stiller agreed terms to join Madrid back in May, but the German remains at Stuttgart. Advertisement But then another boost came Liverpool's way in the form of Franco Mastantuono's move to the Spanish capital, which has gone through, although the teenager won't join until later this summer. Now we're faced with another threat from Madrid as Xabi Alonso has entered the fold. The latest from Fichajes claims that the new Los Blancos head coach wants Mac Allister to join the midfield.

Marc Marquez supreme again at German Grand Prix
Marc Marquez has proved once again why he is known as the 'King of Sachsenring' as the Ducati rider marked his 200th MotoGP start by winning the German Grand Prix in a race that became a test of survival after only 10 riders finished. Marquez's ninth MotoGP victory at the Sachsenring circuit on Sunday stretched his championship lead over brother Alex, who finished second, to 83 points while Marc's teammate Francesco Bagnaia finished third to sit 147 points behind. Alex had started fifth on the grid and took second in his 100th MotoGP start despite still recovering from a fractured hand he suffered at the Dutch Grand Prix two weeks ago which required surgery. Another Sachsenring winners' trophy for @marcmarquez93 🏆#GermanGP 🇩🇪 — MotoGP™🏁 (@MotoGP) July 13, 2025 Several riders crashed over the course of the race, especially at turn one -- including VR46 Racing's Fabio Di Giannantonio and Aprilia's Marco Bezzecchi when they were in second place. But the day belonged to Marc as he marked his latest triumph at his favourite hunting ground by standing on his bike and doing a jig as he passed the chequered flag -- a fourth straight weekend where he had won both the sprint and the race. "One more (win at the Sachsenring) was super special. From the beginning, I felt good, the confidence when I started the weekend was super high because we were coming from three victories in a row," the victor Marquez said. "We are in an incredible moment. Now we can say that half the season is done. Now the second half we still need to be super concentrated." Marc had clinched his seventh pole position of the season on Saturday before winning a wet sprint despite a mistake at the first turn, but this time he had the dream start to take the lead into turn one ahead of Bezzecchi and Di Giannantonio. As Marc slowly but surely started to stretch his lead, he was unaware of the battles for position behind him as Bezzecchi and Di Giannantonio swapped places while Alex and Pedro Acosta fought for fourth place on the sweeping corners. Acosta became the third rider to crash early on after Lorenzo Savadori and Miguel Oliveira, with the young Spaniard gesturing at his fallen machine in frustration. Di Giannantonio had broken the lap record in Friday's practice and given Marc a tough time early in the sprint. But the Italian was unable to push any harder to catch up to Marc, who found a comfortable rhythm and pace to surge more than two seconds ahead despite easing off the throttle on two laps to conserve his tyres. As Marc's lead stretched to more than three seconds, Di Giannantonio's challenge came to an end on the downhill braking zone on turn one when he lost control and crashed, with his bike tumbling across the gravel while he escaped unhurt. LCR Honda's Johann Zarco, who started second on the grid before getting pushed down the order, crashed at the same turn seconds later. Bezzecchi had moved up to second but the Aprilia rider also bit the dust on the very next lap at turn one, moving Alex up to second while Bagnaia suddenly found himself in the podium positions. "I tried to give my 100 percent. Also, I was a little bit lucky because (riders) sliding in front of me crashed. But this is racing, so you need to be there," said Alex, holding an ice pack on his left hand. "Today, it was important to survive... So I'm really, really happy. It's unbelievable to be here after surgery." The crashes did not end there as Trackhouse Racing's Ai Ogura lost his balance on turn one and ended up taking out Honda's Joan Mir in the process, leaving only 10 of the 18 starters. Yamaha's Fabio Quartararo finished fourth ahead of Alex's Gresini Racing teammate Fermin Aldeguer. Australian Jack Miller, on his Pramac Yamaha, came home eighth of the 10 finishers, some 25 seconds adrift of the winner.

João Almeida, a key teammate of Pogačar, exits Tour de France after rib fracture
CHATEAUROUX, France (AP) — João Almeida, a key teammate of Tour de France leader Tadej Pogačar, has abandoned the race. Almeida, who fractured a rib during Stage 7, was dropped early during Sunday's ninth stage between Chinon and Châteauroux, and UAE Team Emirates-XRG later announced over the race radio that the Portuguese rider had retired. Almeida was caught in a high-speed crash earlier this week as riders scrambled for position at the front, 6 kilometers (4 miles) from the finish line. Almeida escaped without a concussion but his rib fracture finally proved to be too painful to carry on in the three-week race. Almeida finished fourth at the 2024 Tour de France and started this year's edition on the back of excellent preparations, having won the Tour de Suisse, Tour de Romandie and Itzulia Basque Country. Sunday's stage heads into central France on a 158-kilometer (98-mile) flat stage for sprinters. ___ AP sports:
