ATHLETICS
Jessica Ennis believes her thrilling heptathlon
victory at Sunday's Hypomeeting in Gotzis was the perfect preparation
to challenge for the European Championship title in July. Ennis
trumped every one of the major rivals who will line up against her
when the championships begin in Barcelona on July 27 including
Olympic gold medallist Nataliya Dobrynska and Tatyana Chernova, the
Beijing bronze medallist.
MOTOR RACING
A consummate drive from Dario Franchitti
saw the Scotsman claim his second Indianapolis 500 victory in fine
style. The Team Ganassi driver's main competition came in the form of
the Penske pair of Helio Castroneves and Will Power, but the Briton
was able to hold the lead through most of the opening half of the race.
CYCLING
Gustav Larsson tasted success on the final stage of
the Giro d'Italia but the day belonged to Ivan Basso after he secured
the overall victory for a second time in Verona. Larsson (Saxo Bank)
blitzed around the 15.3km time trial course in 20 minutes 19 seconds,
two seconds quicker than HTC-Columbia's Marco Pinotti, with Alexandre
Vinokourov 17 seconds behind in third.
ROWING
Greg Searle completed
a victorious return to international racing as Great Britain opened
the 2010 World Cup season with an impressive total haul of nine gold
medals. Searle, the 1992 Olympic champion, is back in national
colours after a decade in retirement and targeting gold at London
2012, when he will be 40. The veteran oarsman sat in the key six seat
and his power helped Britain's re-jigged men's eight storm to a
comprehensive victory in Sunday's final. Katherine
Grainger and Anna Watkins won two gold medals, in the
double scull and then an hour later as part of the quad that beat
world champions Ukraine.
YACHTING
Britain's sailors have won five medals at the World
Cup sailing event in Holland. After 470 duo Nic
Asher and Elliot Willis won gold on Saturday, Sunday saw
two silvers and two bronzes at the Delta Lloyd Regatta in Medemblik.
Windsurfer Nick Dempsey and the match-racing trio of Lucy Macgregor,
Nicky Muller and Ally Martin finished second in their competitions
while there were third places for Bryony Shaw in the RS:X windsurfing
and Helena Lucas in 2.4mR Paralympic class. |
