Rory McIlroy and Patrick Reed incident in Dubai escalates

10 days ago BBC

McIlroy admitted ignoring Reed on the range before the Dubai Desert Classic. It is the latest act in golf's increasingly fractious civil war between the new LIV Golf series and the DP World Tour and PGA Tour. "I was subpoenaed by his lawyer on Christmas Eve," said the Northern Irishman, who has been called as a witness in Reed's defamation case against the PGA Tour among others. Reed says the witness summons was not instigated by him and that his LIV involvement is the reason McIlroy snubbed him. Separate legal proceedings involving the European-based DP World Tour and 13 LIV players is scheduled to take place in London from 6 to 10 February.

Sheffield United 2-2 Norwich City: Teemu Pukki scores twice but misses penalty for Canaries

Last updated on .From the section ChampionshipTeemu Pukki charged down Adam Davies' attempted clearance for Norwich's opening goalTeemu Pukki scored twice but saw a late penalty saved as Norwich and Sheffield United had to settle for a point each at Bramall Lane. The Canaries, beaten in their previous three matches, went in front when goalkeeper Adam Davies was slow to clear a backpass, allowing Pukki to close down the space - and the ball rebounded off him into the net. Pukki added his second - and his seventh of the season - as a kind deflection off defender John Egan gave him enough space to angle a shot across Davies and into the far corner. United raised their game after the break and Ben Osborn and Oli McBurnie pulled them level, before Davies atoned for his earlier error by saving Pukki's spot-kick after he had been fouled in the box by John Egan. The Blades remain fourth in the Championship, four points behind the top two, QPR and Blackburn, with Norwich sixth, a point further back.

Dominic Calvert-Lewin has scored one goal in two Premier League starts this seasonA knee injury has troubled Everton striker Dominic Calvert-Lewin so far this season, but has his return to fitness come just in time for him to be considered for England's World Cup squad? "It's been a while, one I've been waiting for, one I've been looking forward to and I felt like myself. Asked if he can do enough to catch the manager's eye before England's World Cup squad is announced next month, Calvert-Lewin added: "It's every boy's dream to go to the World Cup. Calvert-Lewin was part of the England squad that reached the Euro 2020 final, although he only played 18 minutes during the tournament. "Dominic has to show how fit and fresh he is for Everton and today was an all-round performance of what he is, which makes him an England striker, Everton striker and Premier League striker," added Lampard.
