Cameron Young breaks Matt Fitzpatrick's heart to win Players Championship and take home $4.5m prize money after dramatic final round
He tied the tour record with seven runner-up finishes before finally winning late last summer in the Wyndham Championship. A day earlier, Young found the water on the 18th and had to scramble for double bogey. This time, he drilled his tee shot and hit a lob wedge from 98 yards to the back fringe. It showed when Young followed Fitzpatrick to 4 feet to match birdies on the 13th and stay one shot behind. On his next tee shot, he pulled that badly into the water, hit over the green and took three to get down for double bogey.

Anthony Gordon is no longer just a makeshift striker - and he may have solved England and Thomas Tuchel's biggest World Cup headache, writes CRAIG HOPE
Anthony Gordon went to Euro 2024 and felt invisible to Gareth Southgate. At the World Cup this summer, Thomas Tuchel will be seeing double. He had just named a squad for England’s final two World Cup qualifiers with just one recognised striker, Kane, within it. For Newcastle, Gordon is no longer the makeshift striker billed as such back in August, when the team waited for reinforcement. Were any misfortune to befall Kane, it could be that stage of a World Cup that awaits in the same role.

Liverpool activate Alisson contract option as former boss eyes reunion
Liverpool have activated an option to extend his deal by a further campaign which sees him committed to the club until 2027. He has gone on to make 330 appearances, winning two Premier League titles, the Champions League, the FA Cup and League Cup. Should Liverpool decide to cash-in, they have Alisson’s replacement already at Anfield, having signed Giorgi Mamardashvili in the summer. His minutes have been limited this season, having made just 12 appearances in all competitions. But as I said, if I don’t play, I don’t mind - I have to work hard every day and that’s it.
