The 14-year-old Ukrainian golfer making the cut
Ukrainian golf prodigy Lev Grinberg on making the cut and his future goals.
One of golf's most prestigious events, the USPGA, is taking place in Oklahoma. The tournament has come a little too early in the career of 14-year-old Ukrainian Lev Grinberg, but could his name one day be on the trophy? Last week Lev became the second youngest player to make the cut at a professional tournament. We hear from Lev and his dad Illya.
It's been a big week for men's football. Jake Daniels, who plays for Blackpool in the second tier of the professional game in England became the first openly gay player in thirty years. The fact that he is the first man in such a long time to come out whilst still playing, highlights just how difficult and challenging it still is for gay men in professional sport. For many different reasons, they can't be their authentic self in a sporting setting. Ryan O'Callaghan had a successful career in the NFL, but despite coming out to his family while still playing, it wasn't until after his retirement he felt comfortable telling the world. He tells us his story.
Plus we are live in Turin ahead of the Women's Champions League final. We'll review the Premier League season with Flo Lloyd Hughes and Sachin Nakrani, and find out what referee Jon Moss has planned once he hangs up his whistle for the last time on Sunday.
