dina asher—smith and catriona thompson johnson will both defend their titles in oregon. let's head back to wimbledon now to get the latest on what is going on at day two. thank you. loud cheers from centre court that we can hear, rafa nadal, absolute tight turn. when you last left at me, he was a breakdown in the fourth set, looking like we are going to battle into r5. he has turned the whole thing around the time and time again. at 36, he is still so good at doing this. this man, francisco cerundolo, now trying to stay in the match with nadal hoping he can get himself over the line in four sets. he doesn't want to test that foot too much in the opening round, he wants to win, kitty have the audacity at 36—year—old to win calendar slime? rafa nadal has never done that in his career, he is halfway there and if you could win wimbledon. were getting carried away, nothing djokovic would potentially await in the final,. dan evans, no such loud cheers from his match against jason kubler, evans was the first set and his three went on in the second, alistair gray just three

thompson doesn't think it's benefited the audience. there's a lot of that difficulty for men and women, probably. i mean, women obviously at the top of the list because we've been taught from a very early age not to like our bodies. so, yes, i think a lot of damage has been done. the great thing about this film is that it's very honest about sex and about pleasure and about shame and about difficulty. erm, it... it addresses it with a kind of humility that i've... i don't think i really have ever seen. so what is your fantasy? thompson has been particularly praised for her performance, and after its showing here in new york, as well as other festivals around the world, it could be that the film industry's portrayal of sex, as opposed to the real thing, continues to be a talking point in hollywood. in america, as the pandemic moves more and more into the background of people's lives, hollywood is delivering some feel—good entertainments, which may be offering weary audiences some comfort. one such film being shown at tribeca this year

thompson, who hadn't won in 50 lpga starts, led on the back nine but bogeyed two of her final three holes, missing for birdie on the 18th to sign for a 73. and south korea's chun, who topped the leaderboard after each round, recovered from her shaky start to seal par on the last, winning by one shot ahead of thompson and minjee lee of australia, on 5—under for the tournament. the victory for the world number 33 adds to her us women's open and evian championship crowns. the wimbledon tennis championships begin on monday and while there've been five different female champions in the past five tournaments, novak djokovic is going for his fourth men's title in a row. he starts his defence against south korea's soo—woo kwon. djokovic is the top seed in the men's draw as the world number one, daniil medvedev, is missing — that's because of the all england club's ban on russian and belarusian players, and the tournament has been stripped of ranking points because of their stance. i cannot say i fully agree to ban russian tennis players or belarusian tennis players from competing indefinite

peter, how important was it also that we saw that appeal coming in from the chairman, bennie thompson, asking those who are on the fence to cooperate with the investigation and reach out to the committee? yeah, i think that is important, because this is still an ongoing process. there are more hearings to come. we know that the next hearing is going to focus on the apparent threats made against state officials — republican state officials — not to certify the election results in their areas. that was hugely contentious at the time. and i think that appeal by the committee chairman was essentially to folks who are indeed sitting on the fence, who perhaps have refused to give evidence before this committee, having seen what has happened over the last week or so, that they might want to change their minds and come forward with their story to ultimately produce as big a picture as possible. what they're doing is really teasing apart the events that led up to that attack on congress. and we're hearing about events and conversations that took place in the oval office — for example, be

but tanni grey—thompson�*s been calling for similar for years and it still hasn�*t happened. i do believe there needs to be an independent body, because the cost of this review — the human cost, the financial cost — is not one that sport can keep paying. it can�*t keep paying that price. gymnasts are used to defying gravity. defying the adults who were meant to protect them was not something they ever wanted to do. all eyes will now be on whether british gymnastics can really deliver the change the sport so needs. natalie pirks, bbc news. new figures today show that the number of people in england waiting to start routine hospital treatment has risen to a new high. meanwhile, ambulance response times continue to miss targets. our health editor hugh pym is here with the details. yes, huw. the latest snapshot from the nhs in england reveals a health system still under extreme pressure, with queues of ambulances like this waiting at some hospitals. in may, average response times to emergency ambulance call—outs was around a0 minutes — though the target is 18 minutes. s

democrat bennie thompson is chair of the committee. he spoke of the danger mike pence faced in his opening statement. we're fortunate for mr pence�*s courage onjanuary 6th. our democracy came dangerously close to catastrophe. that courage put him in tremendous danger. when mike pence made it clear that he wouldn't give in to donald trump's scheme, donald trump turned the mob on him, a mob that was chanting "hang mike pence", a mob that had built a hangman�*s gallows just outside the capitol. today, the committee heard from jay michael luttig, a retired judge and an informal adviser to mike pence. he was questioned about the advice donald trump was given by his campaign attorney john eastman that mike pence had the power to overule the results of the election. it was advice that donald trump stuck to, despite his other key advisers saying otherwise. mr luttig said dr eastman�*s advice was completely false. there was no basis in the constitution or laws of the united states at all for the theory espoused by mr eastman. at all, none

after a straight sets win over australian jordan thompson. evans didn't drop a set through the entire tournament. no time for celebrating, afterwards he was straight in the car to queens ahead of his match tomorrow. swedish golfer linn grant made history by becoming the first woman to win on the dp world tour — formerly european tour. she was taking part in a scandianavian mixed event, which combines players from the mens and women's european tours. and it was emphatic, she won by nine shots, she only turned professional last year and was the only women to finish in the top ten. i hope... i mean, i hope it's big, for sure. i hope it kind of brings women a bit more forward and gets people's eyes on us a little bit more. it's always nice to say you beat the guys for a week. and four days before the us open starts, rory mcilroy has won a tournament on the pga tour. at a time of course when many players are defecting to the saudi backed liv golf tour, he's remained on the pga tour, pipping tony finau by two shots here to win the canadian open.

but thompson is in pretty good form himself. he won nine straight matches coming into this, and the australian quickly it back with the break of his own. but evans has been here before. the briton won his first atp tour title last year, and he's not fazed by a bit of resistance. he got himself back in front. much the australian's frustration. shortly after, evans sealed the opener and into the second,it sealed the opener and into the second, it was more of the same. evans into his groom, the briton in flight —— applying all this pressure —— into his groove. evans managed to battle his way back and still break serve. and that proved to be the crucial point. from then on, the brits didn't look back as he powered his way to a second nottingham open title. is his way to a second nottingham open title. , . ., ., , ., title. is amazing. i love playing on the grass- — title. is amazing. i love playing on the grass- i've _ title. is amazing. i love playing on the grass. i've done _ title. is amazing. i love playing on the gras
