Sunday Sport: British Open and le Tour
Sunday Sport should be fairly straightforward today. All things are reaching a climax.
The British Open of
Golf concludes later today. Irishman
Sean Lowry continues to lead, at 15 under par.
Englishman Tommy Fleetwood (pictured right) is second at 12 under par, with American
Rickie Fowler (pictured right in speedo, and above with golfing buds) holding down third at 9 under par.
Should Fowler hold this spot in third place,
it would be his highest overall achievement as a professional golfer.
The Tour de France finishes with the Pyrenees today, with a
185 km stage. The riders will go from
the relative flats at Limoux, and then climb back into the Pyrenees, with the
finish at Foix Prat d'Albis.
This will
complete two weeks of racing, leading into a rest day tomorrow at Nimes. Wednesday the riders head into the Alps. Currently Frenchman Julian Alaphilippe leads
the Tour, with the top ten below:

Peter Sagan currently holds the Sprinters Jersey (on
points).
In case you missed it, England took the Cricket World Cup (ODI Format) last week, I think.

Saturday Sport: Tour de France
The Tour de France begins today in Brussls, today for a 197 stage through Charleroi and back to Brussels. Tomorrow's stage will be a team time trial, which will end at the Atomium, a vintage Brussels Site.
This year's tour has seen many drops, and the surge of a few other favorites, so it is hard to decide who might have the best chance.
No matter who, pick your rider and enjoy the Tours!
