Listen to the news:

Rugby League - A former rugby league player Ricky Bibey has been named by Italian media as the 40-year-old Briton found dead in a Florence hotel on Saturday. 

The man was found by hotel staff alongside a seriously injured 43-year-old woman, thought to be his partner. Bibey's former clubs including Wigan and St Helens paid tribute to him.

Golf - Cameron Smith staged one of the greatest back-nine charges ever witnessed at a major championship, coming from four shots behind to win the 150th British Open yesterday at St. Andrews. Smith carded a sensational final round eight-under 64 that included a spectacular run of five consecutive birdies from the turn to become the first Australian to hoist the Claret Jug since Greg Norman in 1993.

Women's Football - Defending champions The Netherlands set up an enticing Euro 2022 quarter-final with France by beating Switzerland 4-1 to finish second in Group C. Ruthless Sweden marched into the quarter-finals after hammering Portugal 5-0 to top the group and to end the Portuguese interest in the tournament.
