Lucy Bronze hopes England not taking knee sends ‘more needs to be done' message
The defending champions have collectively chosen to refrain from participating in what has become a widespread anti-racism gesture, in the wake of England defender Jess Carter revealing she has been the target of vile racist abuse on social media during the tournament and will be stepping back from the platforms for the remainder of the campaign. Football Association chief Mark Bullingham announced his organisation has already involved UK police, and vowed to ensure 'those responsible for this hate crime are brought to justice', while Bronze said 'strong ' and 'ferocious' Carter's choice to speak out – in a statement posted to her social media – was 'empowering to our whole team'. Bronze said: 'The decision (not to kneel) was driven by the group, obviously certain individuals more than others. We stand with Jess, and all #Lionesses players past and present who have suffered racism. A message from the squad: — Lionesses (@Lionesses) July 20, 2025 'I think it was just the fact that we feel, as a collective, 'Is the message as strong as it used to be? Is the message really hitting hard?'. 'Because to us it feels like it's not, if these things are still happening to our players in the biggest tournaments of their lives. It's putting another statement out there to say it's something that still is a problem. 'It's something that still needs to be put right. More needs to be done in football, more needs to be done in society. What that is right now, as an individual, I don't exactly know, but it's something that us, collectively, as a team and as a federation, we want to work towards. 'We want to make changes. This is a small step, trying to create another change.' While Bronze agreed England know 'people higher up are the ones that can ultimately put in things to make change', she added: 'I think we're never helpless as players. A post shared by Lionesses (@lionesses) 'I think that is something that we are very proud of as a Lionesses team, that we have created this voice and this platform that we can reach the highest of heights, and that we are willing to use that platform and that voice to make differences. 'I think the sentiment of (not) taking a knee and standing, as small as it might seem to other people, I think the noise will be reached around the world.' The widespread use of kneeling in sport was sparked by NFL player Colin Kaepernick, who in 2016 sat – then later knelt – during the United States national anthem to protest racial injustice and bring awareness to police brutality. England are currently preparing for Tuesday's Euro 2025 semi-final against Italy, and while Bronze said Carter is someone who 'would stand up for the right thing no matter what', she admitted: 'Jess herself, I think it's difficult. — Jess Carter (@_JessCarter) July 20, 2025 'I think she would probably not admit it to the wider world, but it's obviously difficult for her to go through, but all the players (and staff) are here to support her.' Bronze was quick to point out that Carter's situation is in no way unique. She added: 'I think we all know that any player of colour that's played for England has probably gone through racist abuse. That's a sad fact in this day and age. 'There was a lot of anger, to be honest, because as players we want to stand up and we want to make a change. It's anger and sadness that our team-mates are going through this and we don't want it to happen. 'We want to be focused on the football, we want to be making changes. We want Jess and anybody else who puts on an England shirt to be brave, to be happy when they play for England, to have the fans' support through it all.'

The Open 2025 LIVE RESULTS: Scottie Scheffler WINS fourth major after stunning final day at Royal Portrush
The grass is always greener Rory McIlroy fell to his knees and later broke down in tears after he FINALLY WON the Masters and got his hands on the prestigious Green Jacket. After what has been more than a decade of heartbreak at Augusta, Rory won the Masters title to complete the Grand Slam and cement himself as one of the elites. He had to do it the hard way after going to a play-off with Ryder Cup team-mate Justin Rose, as McIlroy had missed a five footer for par on the 72nd green. But the golfing great held his nerve to win that elusive Masters crown before later breaking down in tears during a TV interview. And I'm sure he won't mind shedding more tears if it means he picks up The Open title once the weekend has concluded.

Trump's latest demand: Washington football and Cleveland baseball teams should change names back
President Donald Trump wants Washington 's football franchise and Cleveland 's baseball team to revert to their former names. Trump said on Truth Social on Sunday morning that 'The Washington 'Whatever's' should IMMEDIATELY change their name back to the Washington Redskins Football Team. There is a big clamoring for this. Likewise, the Cleveland Indians, one of the six original baseball teams, with a storied past. Our great Indian people, in massive numbers, want this to happen. Their heritage and prestige is systematically being taken away from them. Times are different now than they were three or four years ago. We are a Country of passion and common sense. OWNERS, GET IT DONE!!!' Josh Harris, whose group bought the Commanders from former owner Dan Snyder in 2023, said earlier this year the name was here to say. Not long after taking over, Harris quieted speculation about going back to Redskins, saying that would not happen. Guardians president of baseball operations Chris Antonetti indicated before Sunday's game against the Athletics that there weren't any plans to revisit the name change. 'We understand there are different perspectives on the decision we made a few years ago but obviously it's a decision we made. We've got the opportunity to build a brand as the Guardians over the last four years and are excited about the future that's in front of us," he said. Both teams have had their new names since the 2022 seasons. Washington dropped Redskins after the 2019 season and was known as the Washington Football Team for two years before moving to Commanders. Cleveland announced in December 2020 they would drop Indians. It announced the switch to Guardians in July 2021. In 2018, the team phased out 'Chief Wahoo' as its primary logo. The name changes had their share of supporters and critics as part of national discussions about institutions and teams to drop logos and names considered racist. The Guardians are the fifth name for Cleveland's baseball franchise. It joined the American League in 1901 as one of the eight charter franchises as the Blues. It switched to Bronchos a year later and used the Naps from 1903 through 1914 before moving to Indians in 1915. Washington started in Boston as the Redskins in 1933 before moving to the nation's capital four years later. Washington and Cleveland share another thing in common. David Blitzer is a member of Harris' ownership group with the Commanders and holds a minority stake in the Guardians. ___
