Niemann lands fifth LIV Golf title of season in UK
LIV Golf UK final leaderboard -17 J Niemann (Chi); -14 B Watson (US); -13 C Surratt (US); -11 Talor Gooch (US) Selected others: -10 J Rahm (Spa); -7 P Casey (Eng), T McKibbin (NI); -5 T Hatton (Eng); -3 R Bland (Eng) Full leaderboard Chile's Joaquin Niemann won the UK leg of the LIV Golf tour for his fifth title of the season. It came after the 26-year-old parted ways with his coach and caddie after missing the cut at the Open earlier this month. Niemann started the final round with a six-shot lead at the JCB Golf and Country Club in Rocester. And a steady round of 68, including five birdies and a bogey, left his rivals with a gap that proved too big to close. Nearest challenger Bubba Watson did make a bold effort as his six-under 65 - featuring a run of four birdies and two eagles on the back nine - threatened to make things interesting. Niemann admitted feeling some pressure before he settled to finish three shots clear on 17 under. "I felt like today I was pretty calm, pretty chill, until Bubba started playing golf," he said. "He made it tough for me. I was actually feeling the pressure on 13, 14, but, yeah, just stay in the present. Yeah, was able to hit a great shot on 15. After that, [it] put me back into my place." American Watson's 14 under was the two-time major winner's best LIV Golf finish. Niemann's success in Staffordshire followed ones in Adelaide, Singapore, Mexico City and Virginia this season as he became the first player to register five wins in a season on the LIV tour. Jon Rahm's Legion XIII won the team event as he, Englishman Tyrrell Hatton, Northern Ireland's Tom McKibbin and Caleb Surratt finished with a combined score of 35 under.

'I'm Going to Party': Lucy Bronze Won't Let Injury Keep Her From Celebrating Euro Title
Lucy Bronze isn't going to let an injury — even a fractured tibia — stop the celebrations around England's 2025 UEFA Women's Euro title. The England right-back revealed after the Lionesses' victory over Spain on penalties that she played the entire tournament with the aforementioned leg injury, as well as suffering a further knock to her left knee in Sunday's final. Speaking to BBC Sport after the game, Bronze said she kept the tibia injury literally under wraps. The team heavily relied on her experience this tournament, including her deciding penalty in last week's wild penalty shootout win over Sweden in the quarterfinals. "Which is why the girls gave me a lot of love after the Sweden game, because I've been in a lot of pain," Bronze said. "If that is what it takes to play for England, that is what I'll do. It's very painful, but I'm going to party." The 33-year-old has now played seven major tournaments for England, highlighted by the back-to-back Euro wins. England manager Sarina Wiegman confirmed Bronze's injury after the game, noting the player's mindset with a trophy on the line. "The whole team has a great mentality, but she has a crazy mentality," Weigman said. "It's unbelievable." Bronze had to be subbed off in extra time for Sunday's game and was seen hobbling around with her teammates during the trophy celebration. She was carried around the pitch for the festivities by England backup keeper Anna Moorhouse, which will certainly go down as a lasting image of England's memorable night.

Kitayama wins 3M Open. Lottie Woad wins in her pro debut and Harrington takes a 2nd senior major
BLAINE, Minn. (AP) — Kurt Kitayama finished a sizzling weekend with a 6-under 65 to win the 3M Open on Sunday by one shot over Sam Stevens for his second PGA Tour victory. Kitayama, who tied the tournament record with a career-best 60 on Saturday to enter the final round within one of the lead, birdied six of the first eight holes to take control on a 91-degree afternoon at the TPC Twin Cities. Kitayama led by one playing the par-5 18th when he hit 5-iron onto the back slope of a bunker. He blasted out to about 18 feet and took two putts for par to finish at 23-under 261. Matt Wallace, David Lipsky, Pierceson Coody and Jake Knapp tied for third, three strokes back. Kitayama, whose only other PGA Tour win was the Arnold Palmer Invitational in 2023, moved to No. 53 in the FedEx Cup with one week remaining for the top 70 to qualify for the postseason. He also earned a two-year exemption and a spot in the Masters next year. LPGA Tour and Ladies European Tour IRVINE, Scotland (AP) — Lottie Woad never flinched Sunday on her way to a 4-under 68 to win the Women's Scottish Open by three shots over Hyo Joo Kim in her professional debut. The 21-year-old Englishwoman is the second player in three years to win on the LPGA Tour in her pro debut, following Rose Zhang in the Mizuho Americas Open at Liberty National in 2023. Woad finished at 21-year 267 and earned $300,000. Woad was the No. 1 amateur in the women's ranking when she won the Women's Irish Open on the Ladies European Tour three weeks ago. Then, the former Florida State player finished one shot out of a playoff in the Evian Championship in France, an LPGA major, and turned pro. Nelly Korda shot 71 and finished eight shots behind. PGA Tour Champions BERKSHIRE, England (AP) — Padraig Harrington was so focused on his game that he didn't notice a leaderboard or see Rory McIlroy in the gallery Sunday at the Senior British Open. He closed with a 3-under 67 to win his second senior major of the year. Staked to a two-shot lead, Harrington made eagle on the first hole on the Old Course at Sunningdale and no one got closer than two shots the rest of the way as he became the fifth player with a Senior British Open and a British Open title. He won by three shots over Thomas Bjorn (67) and Justin Leonard (68). Harrington joined Darren Clarke, Tom Watson, Gary Player and Bob Charles as players to have won the British Open and the senior version. LIV Golf League UTTOEXTER, England (AP) — Joaquin Niemann changed his coach and his caddie and won for the fifth time this year on the LIV Golf League, closing with a 3-under 68 in LIV Golf-UK for a three-shot victory over Bubba Watson. Niemann missed the cut in the British Open last week for his second straight missed cut in a major. He made big changes by leaving his coach and getting a new caddie but found his comfort zone back on LIV. Niemann has won seven times, all in the last two years, on the Saudi-backed circuit. He has won just over $21 million this year. Watson closed with a 65, while Caleb Surratt also had a 65 to finish alone in third. Legion XIII won the team title. Korn Ferry Tour GLENVIEW, Ill. (AP) — Johnny Keefer played bogey-free over the final 10 holes and pulled away with a 2-under 69 for a two-shot victory in the NV5 Invitational, his second Korn Ferry Tour win of the year that secures his spot on the PGA Tour next year. Jeffrey Kang made eagle on the par-5 18th at The Glen Club for a 65 that allowed him to finish alone in second. Neal Shipley closed with a 63 and tied for third along with Kensei Hirata (65) and Davis Chatfield (67). Keefer regained the top spot on the Korn Ferry Tour points list and joined Austin Smotherman as two-time winners on the circuit this year. Other tours Brett White made eagle on the final hole for a 59, and then won the Commissionaires Ottawa Open with a birdie on the second hole of a three-man playoff. It was the second 59 on the PGA Tour Americas in as many years. ... ... Ayaka Watanabe closed with an 8-under 64 for a two-shot victory in the Daito Kentaku Eheyanet Ladies on the Japan LPGA. ___ AP golf:
