Paul Casey hails Hannah Tyrrell's nerve as Dublin book All-Ireland final clash with Meath
DUBLIN'S Paul Casey hailed Hannah Tyrrell after they booked their TG4 All-Ireland final slot. Tyrrell ensured it finished level in normal time on Saturday in Tullamore before the Dubs took down Galway. 2 Dublin joint manager Paul Casey hailed Hannah Tyrrell for her impact during the win 2 Tyrrell starred for Dublin as they sealed a final place with the win over Galway The joint-manager said: 'When you get a score at the end to equalise it and bring it to extra-time, you get a little bit of a boost and you get the energy going into it. 'It's fabulous. All-Ireland semi-finals are all about winning and they're awful to lose. The girls managed to find that extra gear in extra-time, particularly that first half of extra-time, and then got crucial goals at crucial times. It was fantastic. 'There is a lot of work we need to do and lots of areas of improvement that we know won't be good enough in two weeks' time. 'We'll recover and we'll dust ourselves down. See how we are in the next couple of days and we've an All-Ireland final to look forward to.' READ MORE ON GAA The Jackies now face Meath in the final on August 3 at Croke Park and Casey knows this is another contest set to go down to the wire. He said: 'We are very familiar with each other. 'Over the last number of years we've probably played no other team as many times. 'Meath are excellent. I think they've improved massively as the Championship has gone on. We've a little bit of extra homework to do on them now, but it's great for Leinster to have two Leinster teams in the final and I'm sure there will be a massive crowd there.' Most read in GAA Football There was little between the sides throughout a fine contest but Dublin hit the front when Tyrrell slotted home a 17th-minute penalty. The sides were back on level terms when the Tribe's Kate Slevin and Roisin Leonard found their the range. RTE GAA pundit embrace Tipperary captain Ronan Maher after his epic display toppled Cork in All-Ireland final But Tyrrell replied with a pointed free on 23 minutes. Eva Noone, Olivia Divilly and Leonard all raised white flags for Daniel Moynihan's side but with Sinead Goldrick and Niamh Hetherton getting their names on the Dublin scoresheet, the teams were level at 1-6 to 0-9 at the break. It took 14 minutes after the restart before the next score arrived through the boot of Dublin corner-forward Kate Sullivan. Slevin levelled matters with a close-in free but Tyrrell responded with a similar effort to re-establish Dublin's slender lead. Galway hit back and two points from Noone edged them in front. And they looked set to prevail when sub Andrea Trill kicked over in response to a Sophie McIntyre effort. But there was enough time left for Tyrrell to force extra-time with a pointed free. The Na Fianna forward seized the initiative for Dublin in extra-time with a brace of points. Divilly registered her third of the game, before sub Orlagh Nolan found the target to put Casey's side two clear at 1-13 to 0-14 at the break in extra-time. The Dubs found themselves on course to set up a repeat of their 2021 decider against Meath when Rowe — with a soccer-style back heel — and Sullivan bagged goals in the second half of extra-time. They survived a nervous finish after Trill and Olivia Divilly rattled the net for Galway in a thrilling finale. Tribe boss Monyihan said: 'With the clock, another two minutes would have been key for us. We put them under the cosh, they couldn't get kickouts out. 'We possibly could have snuck another goal if we had another few minutes but this is sport. It can be extremely cruel at times. 'Dublin will look back on last year and say, 'Well, we've got our turn now' — but this isn't going to go away for a while for us. 'It's difficult to surmise. We went on a great run, we got back to Division 1. 'We backed up our Connacht title as well, which was great, and then had a good run leading into this. 'We felt possibly we could go all the way this year. 'It's just so disappointing that we just didn't finish that off. We'll regret that but we have to move on and think of the positives. 'We may see a few players step away after this season, which is never easy to see, but a lot of those ladies have really battled for Galway.' SCORERS – Dublin: H Tyrrell 1-6, 1-0 pen, 5f, C Rowe 1-2, K Sullivan 1-1, N Hetherton 0-2, S Goldrick 0-1, S McIntyre 0-1, O Nolan 0-1.

Reed wins four-man playoff to capture first LIV Golf title
WASHINGTON, June 30 — Patrick Reed birdied the first extra hole to win a four-man playoff on Sunday and capture LIV Golf Dallas for his first victory in 41 starts In the Saudi-backed series. Reed, the 2018 Masters champion, led by as many as five strokes early in the final round, squandered his advantage, then won on only the third birdie of the day at the 18th hole at Maridoe Golf Club. 'The biggest thing with relief is to finally win in my home state,' said Reed, who lives near Houston. 'To finally get that done meant a lot. To get my first win here as part of LIV means so much to me.' The 34-year-old American won last November's Hong Kong Open on the Asian Tour for his first title since a 2021 PGA victory at Torrey Pines. Reed, England's Paul Casey, South African Louis Oosthuizen and Japan's Jinichiro Kozuma shared the lead after the regulation 54 holes on six-under 282. Reed opened with a birdie at the first hole, jumped ahead by five after double bogeys by his top rivals, but had five bogeys on the front nine before parring his way through the back nine proved good enough to make a playoff. 'I tried to mess it up,' Reed said. 'After making birdie on the first I seemed to leave every putt short. Just kind of putting pretty tentative.' He missed a birdie putt at 18 in regulation to ensure a playoff. 'Had a good putt there to win on the final hole of regulation, hit a good putt and it doesn't go in there. Leave it short,' Reed said. 'So when I had that down there (to win in the playoff) I thought I left it short too but making a birdie at the last always helps.' Reed composed himself at the turn after losing the lead to his woeful front side. 'I told myself the putts have to start falling. For the most part I thought I hit the ball fine. I had just a lot of missed putts,' he said. Kozuma missed a chance for his first victory outside his homeland. Sharing fifth on 283 were Americans Charles Howell and Harold Varner, England's Tyrrell Hatton and Northern Ireland's Tom McKibbin. Spain's Sergio Garcia qualified for the British Open, taking the spot available to a top-five LIV season player not already in the field for next month's major showdown at Portrush. The Crushers, featuring Casey and two-time US Open winner Bryson DeChambeau, won the team title. — AFP

Faltering Reed wins playoff for maiden LIV Golf win
Patrick Reed has overcome final-round stumbles to sink a 10-foot putt for birdie on the first extra hole and win a four-way playoff to land his first LIV Golf victory. The 2018 Masters champion triumphed from Louis Oosthuizen, Paul Casey and Jinichiro Kozuma at LIV Golf Dallas on Sunday - securing his first-ever win in his home state. "I think the biggest relief is finally winning in my home state," Reed said. "They popped that news to me that I haven't won in Texas, so to finally get that done meant a lot. Obviously to get my first win here, part of LIV, meant so much to me." The moment that mattered 🙌 @PReedGolf #LIVGolfDallas @4AcesGC_ — LIV Golf (@livgolf_league) June 30, 2025 A product of San Antonio, Reed went into the final roundat Maridoe Golf Club with a three-shot advantage. He didn't do himself many favours in trying to wrap up the win until that playoff birdie, suffering through five bogeys over his first nine holes on the way to a three-over-par 75. Casey shot an even par 72 while Kozuma and Oosthuizen fired matching four-under 68s as Reed matched them with a six under total. Cameron Smith was the best of the Australians after a closing 68 to tie for 13th, four shots outside the playoff. Marc Leishman (74) was tied 25th while Lucas Herbert (78) tied for 40th and Matt Jones (71) tied 46th. The Aussies' four-man Ripper GC finished tied seventh in the team competiton but a whopping 36 shots behind the Crushers GC of Casey, Bryson DeChambeau, Charles Howell and Anirbhan Lahiri who won by 11 shots at 18 under. THE MOST TEAM WINS IN LIV GOLF HISTORY 😤#LIVGolfDallas @Crushers_GC — LIV Golf (@livgolf_league) June 29, 2025 Reed was glad to have been able to hold his round togther just enough to force the playoff. "I seemed to leave every putt short, and just kind of putting pretty tentative," Reed said. "Today, even though the score was high compared to where it should have been, it was kind of one of those days that when you don't make putts, any little thing that's off is going to cost you. "I told myself that hey, the putts have to start falling." Kozuma and Oosthuizen had actually come all the way back to grab the lead going into the par-4, 528-yard No.18, but each suffered bogeys, opening the door for Reed's heroics. Four players finished a single shot back in a tie for fifth. Charles Howell III (68), Tom McKibbin (69), Harold Varner III (72) and Tyrrell Hatton (72).
