Andy
Murray has lifted the Aegon championships trophy after
a 7-5 6-4 win over James Blake at Queen's the first British
to win since Bunny Austin in 1938. Usain Bolt ran the
100 metres in a breathtaking 9.77 seconds the fastest
time in the World this year at the IAAF Golden Spike meet
in Ostrava. As the wind was a fraction over the legal
limit, the event record of 9.85 set by Asafa Powell in
2005 still stands. World and Olympic road race champion
Nicole Cooke won stage two of the women's Giro del trentino
to take the overall race victory.
Wladimir Klitschko (Ukraine) defended his WBO and World
heavy weight titles by stopping the previously unbeaten
Ruslan Chagaev (Uzbekistan) with a 10th-roumd TKO.
