Feeney denies Randle maiden Supercars win in Tasmania

Feeney denies Randle maiden Supercars win in Tasmania

The Advertiser10-05-2025

Broc Feeney has upstaged Tickford rival Thomas Randle to claim the opening Supercars sprint in Tasmania.
Feeney used the side draft on the inside to slingshot himself ahead of pole-sitter Randle on lap 11 of the 120km sprint and set up victory at Symmons Plains on Saturday.
The 22-year-old enjoyed a massive 7.937-second buffer over Randle.
Brad Jones Racing driver Bryce Fullwood followed Randle to claim his third-ever podium, having claimed his most recent top-three finish at the same racetrack last year.
Feeney jumps to third in the championship with his second win of the season, denying Randle a maiden career victory in a restaging of last year's duel.
Tensions had flared between the two drivers when Randle had shunted Feeney late in their last visit to Symmons Plains.
Randle, then fourth, was trailing Feeney with a handful of laps remaining when he locked his wheels coming into the infamous hairpin and ploughed into the Camaro.
Feeney finished 15th and Randle, incurring a 15-second penalty, 18th.
Randle was later barred by Triple Eight team manager Mark Dutton from entering their garage to apologise to Feeney after the race.
A slow visit to the pit lane dashed fellow Triple Eight driver Will Brown's podium hopes on Saturday, the defending champion made to settle for a finish in fifth.
Randle's Tickford teammate Cam Waters crossed the finish line in fourth after qualifying third.
Brad Jones Racing driver Macauley Jones was last in 24th after copping a 15-second penalty for spinning Dick Johnson Racing's Will Davison at the hairpin.
The second 120km sprint on Saturday gets underway at 3.55pm (AEST).

AFLW fixture unveiled for 2025 season

Daisy Pearce's West Coast will host Gold Coast on the opening night of the AFLW season, while North Melbourne launch their premiership defence away to Geelong. The Eagles-Suns clash, confirmed in Friday's fixture release, immediately follows the previously announced season opener between traditional foes Carlton and Collingwood on Thursday, August 14. Scroll below to see the full fixture for the 2025 AFLW season Know the news with the 7NEWS app: Download today It is the first time the AFLW season will start during the AFL home and away campaign, coinciding with the final two rounds of the men's competition. Also in Round 1, old rivals Melbourne and the Western Bulldogs will do battle for the Hampson-Hardeman Cup and GWS host Essendon in the first-ever meeting between the sides. Brisbane will take on North Melbourne in round five, in their first encounter since the Kangaroos' breakthrough grand-final triumph under Darren Crocker last year. AFLW fixtures boss Josh Bowler said the league was looking to celebrate iconic moments, grow rivalries and create traditions with this season's fixture. 'It is important to recognise the moments and match-ups in the game that have helped shape the league so far, while also nurturing the emerging rivalries and making it easy and accessible for fans to attend,' Bowler said. Geelong's GMHBA Stadium is the only major AFL venue where AFLW matches will be played in 2025. None have been scheduled at premier venues in Melbourne, Sydney, Brisbane, Perth or Adelaide. Unpopular mid-week fixtures have been dropped in 2025, except for Thursday night features in rounds one, seven and eight, with the latter two falling either side of the AFL grand final. The fixture has been partially based on last season's ladder, divided into three groups of six, and is weighted towards ensuring more match-ups within each group. AFLW's two major themed rounds will both be played over two weeks; Indigenous Round in rounds three and four and Pride Round across rounds nine and 10. Intrastate rivalries are littered throughout the fixture, starting in Round 5 when Fremantle host West Coast at the port. Sydney and GWS clash in Round 6, Gold Coast take on Brisbane in round eight and Adelaide do battle with Port Adelaide in round 11. The schedule for the final round of the home-and-away season has been left floating, to be confirmed closer to the date. AFLW grand final hosting rights will fall to the highest-ranked preliminary final winner. 2025 AFLW fixture Round 1 Thursday, Aug 14 Carlton v Collingwood at Ikon Park, 7:15pm AEST (Seven) West Coast

Hospitalisation rocks Novak Djokovic's French Open campaign

Novak Djokovic's French Open campaign has been rocked by the sudden hospitalisation of his longtime friend and physio, Miljan Amanovic. Amanovic has been in the 24-time grand slam champion's inner circle for several years, and sits in his players' box during matches. The Serbian tennis legend provided an update on his friend on Friday (AEST), but wouldn't be drawn into details of the 'serious' health issue. 'Unfortunately, Miljan is in the hospital,' Djokovic said. 'He had a serious situation today and underwent surgery. 'I wouldn't want to go into more detail than that.' The 38-year-old said everyone in his team is worried. 'We're all very concerned,' Djokovic added. 'He's currently stable, but the situation isn't ideal. 'He'll have to stay in the hospital for a few days. 'We're all worried. I hope everything will be alright.' Novak Djokovic getting stretched by his physiotherapist Miljan Amanovic.

He had to survive a set point in the third set and also needed some medical treatment on the sore toes on his left foot. Djokovic struggled with blisters on his left foot during the match. Credit: DeFodi Images / DeFodi Images via Getty Images 'He had set point,' said Djokovic. 'At that moment anything could happen but I stayed in the set. At the right time, I found a good serve.' 'Obviously, motivation now is to make more history,' added the phenomenon who's looking in ominous form after his 100th title win in Geneva and will face either Canada's Denis Shapovalov or Austrian Filip Misolic in round three. The 38-year-old admitted it's not as easy to back up from match to match anymore at his age, compounding the absence felt without his physio. 'Look, the recovery time is not much longer, I feel like,' he said. 'I mean, I'm pretty fit at the moment. I don't feel like I have any major issues. Although it took me, like, almost an hour to deal with the blister and the bleeding that I had. 'So they had to use the injections and draw the blood out and then inject something to dry out the blister. So that was, you know, not really a pleasant process. But it is something that, you know, anyone who has blisters that are bleeding has to do it. 'So that's why I'm also late with you guys, and I'm sorry for that. But I don't think it's going to be an issue for me to recover. I mean, three hours was a lot of running, straight sets, but a three-hour match is a good three-hour session. 'Good thing about slams obviously you have a day in between. So plenty of time to recover and get ready for the next one.'
