ATHLETICS
Tyson Gay was beaten by Jamaica's Steve Mullings in
the 100 metres after the American dipped too early for the line at
Saturday's Diamond League meeting in New York. Gay, undefeated over
100m last season, made a poor start and saw training partner Mullings
streak away from him. He managed to reel Mullings in but his error
with the line in sight allowed his rival to get the nod in a photo
finish with a time of 10.26 seconds.
CYCLING
Spaniard Joaquim Rodriguez won the sixth stage of the
Dauphine Libere, but Englishman Bradley Wiggins' sixth-placed finish
was enough for him to retain overall lead of the race. Kathusha Team
rider Rodriguez, 32, decided to break away from the leading pack with
5kilometres to go and he powered on to pick up only his second stage
victory of the year. |
