Hole 17: MacIntyre (-10)
MacIntyre moved to -10 on the 17th hole and it was an inch from -11.
His drive finding the front edge of the green and his eagle putt looked in all the way before breaking to the right as it approached the hole.
The birdie gets him to double digits under par, though.

Hole 14: Rory McIlroy (-9) Matt Fitzpatrick (-10)
Missed putt from 5ft for birdie for McIlroy which probably just about sums up his Sunday.
Fitzpatrick with a par alongside him. The pair of them -1 for the day, the same as Li which is comfortably the worst of the top 20 out there at the moment.

Hole 13: Haotong Li (-11) Scottie Scheffler (-17)
Scheffler's tee shot on the par 3 leaves him just 8ft for birdie.
But this time he MISSES low to keep things a tiny bit interesting. Li rolls in his par putt from 5ft.

Hole 17: Clark (-11)
Another birdie for Wyndham Clark as he moves to -6 for the day and into a tie for 3rd at -11.
He'll post the clubhouse lead on 18 and hopefully - for him - at -12.

Hole 15: MacIntyre (-9)
Back-to-back birdies for MacIntyre and three in the last four holes as he moves into the top 10 and onto -9 now.
This latest one a terrific 25ft putt across the 15th. Another who'll be contemplating 'what if?' come tomorrow.

Hole 12: Haotong Li (-11) Scottie Scheffler (-17)
Seemed to take them an absolute age to play that par 5.
But it ends with the inevitable BIRDIE for Scheffler. His second shot into the green missed well to the left before a good pitch to 10ft and another great putt.
Five-shot lead restored.

Hole 13: Harris English (-11) Chris Gotterup (-12)
How good has Chris Gotterup been though?
A dream week last week and matching it this week. He and English find the dance floor on the par 3 , 13th hole. English's birdie putt from 22ft comes up a touch short.
Gotterup finds the middle of the cup from 10ft and he's into solo second!

Hole 12: Harris English (-11) Chris Gotterup (-11)
Huge chance for this group to close the gap, with English rolling in a birdie putt to move to -11.
Gotterup has 10ft left for an eagle and the ball just doesn't stay high enough, dropping low of the hole in the final foot or so. So very nearly and he has to settle for birdie.

Hole 11: Haotong Li (-11) Scottie Scheffler (-16)
Haotong Li and Scottie Scheffler have similar, long putts on 11.
Li is just off the green and having to putt up a huge bank in doing so, which he does and gets the bonus as the ball finds the cup! His face is a picture as it drops!
Scheffler's putt from the back of the green finishes low and he taps in for par.
44 minutes ago By Craig Mahood
Hole 14: Clark (-10)
Stellar approach from Wyndham Clark on 14 and he rolls in the birdie from 5ft to move to -10.
Six birdies in his last eight holes (one bogey, one par in that time) and -5 for his round today.
All a bit too little too late but it's been some Sunday.

So the gap is at six shots once again.
Wyndham Clark running out of holes but has had a fantastic last six or seven holes to thrust himself into the top 10 and charging up the leaderboard.
51 minutes ago By Craig Mahood
Bogeys aplenty
Just as Scheffler appears to be coming out the other end of his sticky spell, every one is experiencing their own.
After McIlroy's double, Gotterup bogeys the 11th hole to drop to -10 and Haotong Li bogeys 10 to also drop to -10.
Scheffler just misses his birdie putt on 10 to stay at -16.

Premier League side eye six more signings ahead of new season

Everton are reportedly interested in signing Southampton's Tyler Dibling, with a £27m bid for the winger already rejected. David Moyes is seeking to make six more signings to strengthen Everton's squad, particularly after the departure of wingers Jack Harrison and Jesper Lindstrom. Dibling, an England Under-21 international, had a breakthrough season for Southampton, scoring four goals in 38 appearances. Despite Southampton previously valuing Dibling at £100m, their relegation to the Championship could lead to further player sales. Everton have so far completed three signings this summer: goalkeeper Mark Travers, forward Thierno Barry, and midfielder Charly Alcaraz.

Doomed 105-year-old football club could go out of business in days

Morecambe Football Club faces imminent closure, with prospective buyers stating it will go out of business on Monday without immediate action. Panjab Warriors, the prospective buyers, have urged current owner Jason Whittingham to sign the deal to allow the takeover to proceed and save the club. The club's academy is set to cease operations by the end of the week, and the first team has already halted activities due to lapsed insurance. Morecambe's membership with the National League has been suspended, and the club remains under embargo ahead of the upcoming season. Panjab Warriors, supported by a minority shareholders action group, are ready to complete the acquisition to preserve the club's 105-year legacy.

West Ham midfielder Paqueta cleared of alleged betting breaches by FA

LONDON, July 31 (Reuters) - West Ham United's Brazil midfielder Lucas Paqueta has been cleared of four alleged breaches of betting rules after an independent Regulatory Commission hearing, the Football Association said on Thursday. Last year, the 27-year-old was charged with deliberately seeking to receive a booking during four Premier League games between November 2022 to August 2023 against Leicester City, Aston Villa, Leeds United and Bournemouth. The FA said it was alleged that Paqueta sought to influence the progress, conduct, or any other aspect of, or occurrence in those matches by deliberately trying to get booked to manipulate the betting market for the benefit of others. "Paqueta denied the charges against him, and a Regulatory Commission found them to be not proven following a hearing," the FA said in a statement. The Brazilian has been charged with two breaches in relation to alleged failures to comply with his obligations to answer questions and provide information to the FA investigation. Paqueta, who was facing the risk of a lifetime ban, denied the alleged spot-fixing charges and expressed frustration over media coverage of the matter , which he said was misleading. "Since the first day of this investigation, I have maintained my innocence against these extremely serious accusations," Paqueta said in a statement on Thursday. "I would like to express how grateful I am to God and how eager I am to return to playing football with a smile on my face. To my wife, to West Ham United, to the fans who always cheered me on, and to my family, friends and the legal team who have supported me, thank you." The FA began their investigation of the alleged betting breaches in August 2023. In October last year , Paqueta urged the FA to investigate how information from its case against him had been leaked to the media. "We are pleased Lucas has been cleared ... as a club we have resolutely stood by him and supported him throughout the process," West Ham Vice-Chair Karren Brady said. "Despite the incredible pressure on him, Lucas has performed week in and week out for the club, always giving everything. It has been a difficult time for Lucas and his family, but he has remained absolutely professional throughout." West Ham, who struggled to a disappointing 14th-place finish last season, begin their 2025–26 Premier League campaign at promoted Sunderland on August 16.
