Tonight’s TV line‑up pits England against Canada in the Women’s Rugby World Cup final at Twickenham, with the bronze match earlier in the day.

Viewers can catch both sport and sparkle in one evening.
Everton and Aston Villa drew 0-0 at Hill-Dickinson Stadium, a bruising game with more cards than chances. Beto missed the best openings for Everton, while Emiliano Martinez kept Villa alive with key stops. Jack Grealish faced his boyhood club for the first time and was tightly marked. Villa remain winless with two points from four, their worst start since 1997, as pressure grows on Unai Emery.
In the world of tennis, there have been many talented female players who, despite their skill and prowess on the court, have never won a major title. One name that often comes up in this conversation is Elena Dementieva. This Russian player, known for her powerful serve and relentless determination, consistently ranked in the top 10 during her career but never managed to clinch a Grand Slam title. It's a testament to the high level of competition in women's tennis and a reminder that success isn't always measured in trophies. So, in my view, Dementieva takes the title for the best female tennis player never to win a major.
