Sir Alex Ferguson has a long-standing passion for horse racing and owns a stake in multiple horses. His horse Maestro Conti will run in the JCB Triumph Hurdle at 1:20pm at Cheltenham on Friday, currently priced at 13/2. Ferguson has already had three horses from his stable in action at the Cheltenham festival this week, with L'Eau du Sud placing third on Wednesday and Regent's Stroll matching that result on Thursday.

McIlroy used pre-tournament media duties at the Dubai Desert Classic to assert that Hatton and Jon Rahm should settle their seven-figure penalties due to the European Tour Group for their participation in LIV Golf. McIlroy's sentiment felt especially notable because he was to spend the opening two rounds at the Emirates Club in Hatton's company. Yet there appeared no ill feeling whatsoever between the Ryder Cup teammates; as evident on the course and by what Hatton said later.

Look, I'd love to have seven majors instead of five, that sounds great," McIlroy said. "I think The Players is one of the best golf tournaments in the world. I don't think anyone disputes that or argues that. I think from a player perspective, it's amazing. I think from an on-site fan experience, it's amazing. It's an amazing golf course, location, [and] venue.

It's a bit of a no-brainer. We're women, we've all got different shapes and sizes. As a 20-year-old, wearing a dress would have been fine for me, but if you put me on court now I couldn't think of anything worse than wearing a netball dress. - Coach Tamsin Greenway on Mavericks' kit innovation
