Decorated Linfield star reveals the feat he is still longing to achieve

He's won everything in the domestic game, including an astonishing 11 League titles, but veteran Linfield midfielder Jamie Mulgrew still has one big craving — to feature in the group stage of a European tournament. The midfielder, who will turn 39 in July, almost achieved his ambition three years ago when David Healy's team came within a kick of the ball from reaching the group phase of the UEFA Conference League, only to concede a goal in added time before agonisingly losing out in a penalty shoot-out to Latvian opponents RFS.

Shane Lowry shows true colours after breaking the rules in US Open at Oakmont

Shane Lowry exited the US Open after the second round at Oakmont Country Club, with the Irishman committing a "stupid" mistake on the 14th green which incurred a one-stroke penalty Shane Lowry shared a humorous moment with Rory McIlroy and Justin Rose during the US Open's second round after he committed silly mistake at Oakmont Country Club. The Offaly pro, who had been grappling with the course's challenges, marched onto the 14th green to mark his ball, only to forget to put down a coin before lifting it – an error that left his Ryder Cup colleagues chuckling as he received a penalty stroke. Later on, reflecting on his mishap, Lowry couldn't hold back the laughter, showing his terrific sense of humour saying: "Probably one of the stupidest things I've ever done. I picked the ball up, had the ball in my hand, turned around to Darren [Reynolds, his caddie] and he basically said to me, 'What are you doing?' By then maybe my mind was somewhere else." ‌ Under the rules of golf, failing to mark a ball's position before picking it up leads to a one-shot penalty, which Lowry found mildly amusing despite later bowing out of the tournament with an unfortunate score of 17-over par, reports the Mirror US. ‌ Talking about his early exit and the mistakes that led up to it, Lowry added: "I don't know to be honest. I drove it in play a lot Thursday, did what I was supposed to do off the tee and then just didn't have my game that I've had for the last while. "Then I really struggled on the greens and the round got away from me out here and that was it. They let it sort of do what they said it wouldn't do, but that's all fine, that's the US Open. "I just made obviously too many doubles, too many big mistakes and when I got a couple chances, I didn't convert them. I didn't really do much right to be honest, other than I drove the ball as good as I've probably driven the ball in a long time. So, yeah, weird couple of days." Lowry anticipated tough times ahead after early struggles in the tournament, foreseeing a bleak outcome even before being hit by a scorecard error that saw him join several European players in an untimely departure. Ludvig Aberg and Tommy Fleetwood, who concluded Friday's play at a disappointing nine-over par, also made an early exit from the contest. Rose, meanwhile, finished with a score of 14-over after two rounds, while Sepp Straka, despite two PGA Tour victories this season, failed to reach the weekend, finishing at 11-over-par.

Rico Bogen hoping momentum can lead to back-to-back T100 victories

Rico Bogen hopes the momentum from his first T100 World Triathlon Tour victory can carry him to the top of the podium again in Vancouver. Bogen claimed his maiden T100 victory with a dominant performance in San Francisco in May, lifting him to the top of the overall standings after two races. The German now hopes that having earned a first race win, he can repeat the feat on a new course for all athletes in Canada just two weeks after the San Francisco leg. 'I have the momentum on my side but it's a new day and a strong field,' he said. 'Let's see how the others are in the race and if I can perform like I did in San Francisco. 'It's hard to do it back-to-back, and it's such a strong field. I am in a good mood and want to have fun out there. 'It gave me confidence, now I know I can win a race like the T100 with such a strong field. You are always a little bit nervous for the race, but this gave me confidence that with a good training block I can beat everybody. 'It would be very cool to win back-to-back races, and it would be very good for the overall series.' A new leader in the Race to Qatar 🚀 June 3, 2025 The T100 arrives in Vancouver for the third stop of a world tour that will culminate in a final in Qatar in December. Bogen finished 10th on the first stop in Singapore before rocketing up the rankings with victory in San Francisco, but knows another good result is required in Vancouver ahead of the tour's European legs in France and the UK. The race in Vancouver is the first time the T100 has taken place in the Canadian city, and Bogen hopes his time reconnecting with nature can help him to another strong result. 'The course is very similar to San Francisco so we didn't change too much in training,' he said. We came straight from San Francisco, it's important to be able to fully reset and train. 'It's my first time here in Canada. Last week I travelled in a camper with my parents. We visited a bit of nature, it's beautiful. I love nature and I love a little bit more silence 'It's such a cool city. It's perfect conditions for triathlon. The bike course looks cool, a bit of technical stuff and a bit of hills.'
