Rory McIlroy set for afternoon start in Open Championship first round
Rory McIlroy will have to wait for his shot at redemption at Royal Portrush after being given a mid-afternoon tee time for Thursday's first day of The Open. The Northern Irishman, who shot 61 as a 16-year-old on this course, has been paired with Ryder Cup team-mate Tommy Fleetwood and American rival Justin Thomas. On his last appearance here in 2019, McIlroy hit his opening tee shot out of bounds, made a quadruple-bogey eight, shot an eight-over 79 and went on to miss the cut by one. However, he has been given the reverse draw this time around and will go off at 3.10pm on Thursday and 10.09am on Friday. Shane Lowry is on the opposite sid of the draw, playing alongside world number one and US PGA champion Scottie Scheffler and Collin Morikawa. Xander Schauffele begins his defence of the Claret Jug in the 9.58am group with Jon Rahm and US Open champion JJ Spaun. Two-time Open champion Padraig Harrington will hit the opening tee shot at 6.35am, alongside Northern Irishman Tom McKibbin and Denmark's Nicolai Hojgaard. Darren Clarke will tee off at 7.52am on day one.

US Open 2025: Second-round tee times
Rory McIlroy had a horrible feeling of deja vu after his US Open hopes were dented on the opening day at Oakmont yesterday, where most of the big names suffered. The Masters champion, trying to shake off the hangover of his Augusta National win in April, came to the Pittsburgh course last week on a scouting mission and carded an 81. Advertisement While he fared slightly better in yesterday's first round, his four-over-par 74 leaves him needing to produce something special if he is to win the third major of the year. He is eight shots off first-round leader JJ Spaun, who tamed the brutal Oakmont course widely described as the hardest in the game, with a blemish-free 66. The American sits one shot clear of Thriston Lawrence. Sungjae Im, Brooks Koepka and Si Woo Kim are a shot further back on two-under-par. World No 1 Scottie Scheffler, the overwhelming pre-tournament favourite, also struggled in posting a 73, along with defending champion Bryson DeChambeau.

Pogacar to lead Team Emirates-XRG charge at Criterium du Dauphine
UAE Team Emirates-XRG have announced their rider selection for the upcoming Criterium du Dauphine, taking place from June 9–15. The race will serve as a crucial test ahead of the Tour de France, with Tadej Pogacar set to lead a strong and versatile squad through the week-long race in the French Alps. Pogacar returns to competition after a high-altitude training camp with his teammates and a commanding spring campaign, which included seven victories. The Dauphine will mark a key step in his build-up to July. Pogacar said: 'We've just come off a really solid block of altitude training with the team and I'm feeling good. The legs are there, and the motivation is high. It's been a few years since I've been to the Dauphine, and we're excited to be there and racing again after many weeks of training all together. 'We have a very good ambience in the group, and we're ready to pin on race numbers and show what we can do.' The seven-man squad will be guided by Sports Directors Andrej Hauptman (Slo), Marco Marcato (Ita) and Marco Marzano (Ita). The team brings a balanced line-up of climbing specialists, experienced domestiques, and all-rounders to support Pogacar across the race's demanding terrain. Meanwhile, on stage 3 of the Tour of Slovenia, Sebastian Molano sprinted to second place for UAE Team Emirates-XRG, narrowly missing out on the day's victory to Dylan Groenewegen of Jayco AlUla. The Colombian launched his sprint with 300m to go, but ultimately came up just short in the uphill kick to the line. Earlier in the stage, Antanio Morgado and Rune Herregodts had kept their leaders safe and out of trouble, as the sun lashed the peloton with a searing heat. With bottles of water aplenty, the peloton went about its business from Majsperk to Ormoz, showing little concern for the threat that came from out front. Initially numbering six riders, the day's breakaway was best represented by Nejc Komac (Factory Racing) in the finale. The Slovene youngster made a daring bid to ride alone to the finish, but was ultimately caught inside the final 3km. It was a fine effort from Komac, who came close to pulling off an unlikely victory. With the breakaway mopped up, UAE Team Emirates-XRG's Rui and Ivo Oliveira piloted Molano towards the front of the bunch, and it was the 30-year-old who opened up his sprint first. Hitting the front with a little over 300m to ride, Molano delivered a great turn of speed and initially looked to have enough to hang on. However, it was Groenewegen who benefited from a slightly later launch, riding his way to a second stage victory of the week. Behind the fireworks, Felix Großschartner remained out of danger and cruised over the line, putting himself into a handy position heading into Saturday's summit finish. The Austrian sits in fifth place overall and will hope to stretch his legs over the weekend. Molano: 'It was really close today. In the end, I did not see Ivo preparing his lead-out on the right-hand side of the road, and this is why I launched a little early. The finish was a bit uphill and with such a long kick, it was hard to hold on. 'It's a shame not to get the victory because I know how close I am. Groenewegen is strong but today I had the legs. With some better luck, it was ours. Anyway, we have two more opportunities to chase the victory, so we will give it everything,' he added. Tour of Slovenia has been become a happy hunting ground for UAE Team Emirates-XRG in recent years, showcasing their strength and consistency on the international stage. The team's impressive run began in 2019, when the experienced Italian rider Diego Ulissi powered to victory with a tactically brilliant performance. Building on that success, the spotlight then shifted to Slovenian superstar Pogacar, who thrilled fans by winning his home race in both 2021 and 2022.
