Sensational Scheffler reminds everyone why he is still No 1 with Masters masterclass | Andy Bull

And by the time McIlroy had finished Scheffler, the world’s No 1 golfer, had a different perspective on the tournament.

But Makhmudov has never faced a heavyweight of Fury’s pedigree

County cricket: Northants make history with four hundreds as Leics frustrate Surrey – as it happened

Leicestershire gave Surrey a shock at the Oval, defying, not collapsing in the face of 520. Rishi Patel’s 133 not out, his first century in Division One, was a Midlands masterpiece, careful and distinguished, while Jake Weatherald whizz-banged at the other end for 96.
