SWIMMING
British backstroke queen Gemma Spofforth romped to her
third title at the British Gas Scottish National Championships on
Saturday night but was unable to reproduce her record-breaking form
of the opening two days. The 21-year-old won the 100metres backstroke
at Glasgow's Tollcross Park Leisure Centre in 59.56 seconds, half a
second outside her own British record.
MOTOR CYCLING
Reigning champion Valentino Rossi claimed his 100th
grand prix triumph with another dominant display in round seven of
the FIM MotoGP World Championship in Assen on Saturday. The
30-year-old, who started on pole, finished 5.368 seconds ahead of
Spanish team-mate Jorge Lorenzo as the pair completed a Yamaha
one-two for the second consecutive race. Ducati rider Casey Stoner of
Australia made up the podium, almost 18 seconds behind Lorenzo.
ATHLETICS
Dwain Chambers continued his winning streak on
European soil in recent weeks when winning the 100 metres at the
Mondo Keien meeting in Uden on Saturday night. Chambers was hoping to
run under 10 seconds and possibly approach the Dutch all-comers'
record of 9.97 seconds set by Churandy Martina in Hengelo at the
beginning of June.
CYCLING
World champion Nicole Cooke compeleted a remarkable
10th National Road Race Championships title on home Welsh soil. But
the victory was marred when Lizzie Armitstead had the silver medal in
the senior race snatched from her when about to have the medal put
over her neck. Armitstead, from Otley, just pipped Olympic Games Time
Trial silver medalist Emma Pooley to second place but had the
compensation of becoming the British Under-23 champion.
SWIMMING
Joanne Jackson lost her 400
metres freestyle world record on Saturday afternoon when
Italian Federica Pellegrini reclaimed
the mark at the Mediterranean Games in Pescara. Pellegrini, the
Olympic 200m freestyle champion, completely dominated her race and
touched in four minutes 00.41 seconds to lower Jackson's mark set in
March this year by 0.25secs, subject to ratification. |
