Plenty to keep golf fans glued to their screens on Sunday
Golf fans have three big tournaments ending on Sunday where if you're willing to back a bit of an outsider you could win yourself a few rands.
On the DP World Tour, the Danish Golf Championship comes to a close in Copenhagen with local Rasmus Hojgaard leading the way at 13-under-par. According to Betway he is 1.90 to go on and win.
Hot on his heels is Marco Penge (12-under-par) at 2.35 to win. The next best player, Ben Schmidt is a further three shots back (nine-under-par) and at 20.00 to win. Worth a gamble?
On the LIV Golf Tour, the action is taking place in Indianapolis, and American Dustin Johnson and Sebastian Munoz of Colombia are the favourites going into Sunday's final round.
With a score of 16-under-par, the duo are four shots ahead of their nearest rivals, namely Joaquin Niemann, David Puig, Patrick Reed, Adrian Meronk, Henrik Stenson and Thomas Pieters, who're all 12-under-par.

Thompson eclipses Lyles and Hodgkinson makes stellar comeback
PARIS -Kishane Thompson eclipsed Olympic 100m champion Noah Lyles at the Silesia Diamond League meet on Saturday and Keely Hodgkinson made an impressive comeback over 800m a year since winning gold at the Paris Games. A host of world and Olympic champions headlined by the likes of Karsten Warholm -- with an incredible performance in the 400m hurdles -- Armand 'Mondo' Duplantis, Faith Kipyegon and Femke Bol shone in hot and humid conditions in front of more than 40,000 fans in the Polish city of Chorzow. In their first meeting since Lyles won Olympic gold by just five-thousandths of a second in Paris last year, Thompson made an electric start and led from gun to tape for victory in 9.87sec. "My job is to get the job done," said Thompson. "I enjoyed competition against Noah today... nobody is perfect, but I am working on improving my strengths and improving on my weaknesses. "Paris last year was a big learning factor. I learned it is me against myself." Lyles had to be content with second in 9.90sec as the athletes fine-tune preparations for the September 13-21 world championships in Tokyo. "It makes me really excited for not only today, but also for next week and Tokyo," the American said. AFP | Sergei GAPON "The more I run, the better I am getting. I get more excited each day and it is working. I need to keep competing." There was a timely return for Hodgkinson as the 23-year-old Briton showed no sign of the lingering hamstring problems that had sidelined her for months as she clocked 1min 54.74sec, the fastest in the world this year. "I was just happy to step on the track after more than a year," Hodgkinson said. "I planned to run a fast time because I don't have five races anymore before Tokyo, I only have today and the meeting in Lausanne next week. So it had to be fast and I'm happy that it worked." Kenya's serial world record breaker Kipyegon missed out on the long-standing world record in the women's 3,000m. Six weeks after improving her own world 1,500m record in Eugene, Kipyegon clocked 8:07.04 over the non-Olympic distance, falling just short of the 8:06.11 world record set by China's Wang Junxia in 1993. "I am so happy. I wanted to run a longer distance," Kipyegon said. "It is all about Tokyo now, but Tokyo is a championship race, so anything can happen!" - Blistering Warholm - Warholm looked in astonishing form in the 400m hurdles after a two-month training block at home in Norway, timing a world-leading time of 46.28sec. It was the third fastest time ever run over the distance, topped only by the Norwegian's own world record of 45.94sec and American Rai Benjamin's 46.19sec. "That race was great! I had great rhythm and speed throughout," said Warholm. Dutch star Femke Bol comfortably extended her six-race win streak in the women's 400m hurdles this year with victory in 51.91sec -- another world-leading time. Duplantis, fresh from setting his 13th pole vault world record with 6.29m in Budapest on Tuesday, failed to hit those heights but secured victory in 6.10m, having failed three attempts at 6.20. World leader Melissa Jefferson-Wooden equalled Shelly-Ann Fraser-Pryce's meet record when she clocked 10.66sec for an impressive victory in the women's 100m. World champion Sha'Carri Richardson could only finish sixth after a troubled few weeks following her arrest for a violent altercation with her partner. Jamaica's two-time world champion Shericka Jackson claimed the honours in the 200m in 22.17sec as she powers back to form. AFP | Sergei GAPON Cordell Tinch left it late, but the in-form American powered past three-time world champion Grant Holloway for a third victory this season in the 110m hurdles in 13.03sec. Olympic champion Masai Russell came out on top of a stacked field in the 100m hurdles in a Diamond League record of 12.19sec ahead of American teammate Tonea Marshall. "This win is very important to me because these are the women I'm going to be racing against at the world champs," said Russell. Marileidy Paulino of the Dominican Republic edged Bahrain's Salwa Eid Naser for victory in 49.18sec in the women's 400m and Ethiopia's Gudaf Tsegay outpaced Kenya's Beatrice Chebet for the win in the women's 1500m in 3:50.62. lp/gj By Luke Phillips

Defending champion Dricus the underdog against challenger Chimaev
The South African MMA fighter is putting his middleweight title on the line for a third time this weekend. Though he's defended his UFC middleweight title twice already, South African MMA fighter Dricus du Plessis is considered the underdog in his title fight against Russian Khamzat Chimaev in Chicago on Sunday morning (SA time). Du Plessis and Chimaev will headline the UFC319 event at the United Centre where there are a number of other fights on the card, which should keep punters happy. Du Plessis has lost twice in his career (23-2), while Chimaev is unbeaten (14-0) — perhaps the reason why Betway have made the Russian the favourite. Chimaev is at 1.36 to win the fight, while Du Plessis is at 3.10. There are suggestions though that should the fight go beyond the second round, Du Plessis will be favoured because Chimaev has rarely gone the distance in a championship fight, which consists of five five-minute rounds. Du Plessis has gone the distance in a number of his battles. Betway is offering other options in betting, including whether the fight will go the distance, as well as the winning method, while there are odds available for all the fights on the card. These Betway odds are correct at time of publishing and subject to change.
