WOMEN’S FOOTBALL: Manchester City goalkeeper Khiara Keating has replaced the injured Ellie Roebuck in England’s squad ahead of World Cup qualifiers against Spain and Ukraine. The 21-year-old was part of the Lionesses’ Euro 2025-winning squad before making her debut in a 2-1 defeat to Brazil in October. She will provide competition for Hannah Hampton and Anna Moorhouse. Aston Villa keeper Roebuck has withdrawn due to a shoulder issue. 

WOMEN’S TENNIS: Fran Jones’s fightback proved in vain as she lost in the second round of the French Open today to 27th seed Marie Bouzkova, 6-0 7-6 (3). After an emotional first-round win over Beatriz Haddad Maia, Jones recovered from losing 10 of the first 11 games but ultimately could not complete the turnaround. The defeat means Katie Boulter, who takes on Anastasia Potapova tomorrow, is the last British singles player remaining.

He has now headed straight to London alongside fellow quicks Kyle Jamieson and Will O’Rourke, where all three will work towards being ready to line up at Lord’s next Thursday.
