England's World Cup run is over, and the questions are already louder than the applause. Argentina edged Thomas Tuchel's side in the semi-final, and while the manager had praised his team's mentality going in, the performance exposed a ceiling. Effort and spirit got England this far, but against elite opposition, the all-round quality simply wasn't there to close the deal.
Across the channel, Inter Milan are reportedly eyeing a double move for Tottenham's Djed Spence and Cristian Romero. According to Corriere Dello Sport, lines of communication are open between the two clubs, with cost likely shaping how this plays out. Both players had standout World Cup moments, and it appears Inter are ready to capitalize on that momentum before the summer window closes.
And over at Royal Birkdale, Jackson Suber is doing things nobody saw coming. The twenty-six-year-old, winless on the PGA Tour and making his first trip to Europe, fired a five-under sixty-five in round one to lead the Open Championship by a shot. Bryson DeChambeau and the rest of the field will be hunting him down in round two on Friday, but right now, Suber owns the leaderboard.
That's your play-by-play. Sports Desk, back to the booth.
