With a score of -11 after the final day of play on Sunday, Tiger Woods earned himself a two-stroke win in the Tour Championship, the final individual tournament of this season’s PGA calendar. It was his first tournament win since the 2013 WGC-Bridgestone Invitational, with a lifetime’s worth of health problems and grim news in between. Tiger’s victory wasn’t especially dramatic, even though his lead shrunk as the day went on. More memorable than any particular shot he made was the sight when he approached the 18th green, as a massive number of fans trailed behind him to catch a glimpse of the winning putt. It’s been just 17 months since Woods had spinal fusion surgery, which was his fourth back surgery, and even more recently he was arrested for DUI and checked himself into a rehab center. Less than a year ago, it was perfectly reasonable and smart to believe that Tiger would never be competitive in a PGA tournament again. Next year’s goal: win his first major since 2008.

Brentford head coach Thomas Frank struggled to find the words to describe Ivan Toney after he fired Brentford to a dramatic 2-1 win at Manchester City, declaring: what a striker!
Toney was overlooked when Gareth Southgate named England s World Cup squad this week, but he responded in outstanding fashion by scoring twice in a famous win for the Bees.
Having latched onto Josh Dasilva s cross to score a dramatic winner eight minutes into stoppage time, Toney has reached double figures for Premier League goals this season, scoring two or more goals in three separate games.
Speaking to BT Sport after masterminding Brentford s victory, Frank hailed Toney s performance and praised his side for keeping City talisman Erling Haaland quiet.
He s fantastic, Frank…
Henrikh Mkhitaryan has joined Roma on a permanent deal after Arsenal agreed to terminate his contract at the Emirates Stadium.
The Armenia international spent the 2019-20 campaign on loan with the Serie A side, scoring nine goals in 27 appearances across all competitions.
That deal was initially due to expire at the end of June but the clubs agreed a short-term extension to cover the end of the coronavirus-hit campaign.

Bayern Munich s Bastian Schweinsteiger says his side face a difficult task against Marseille in the Champions League quarter-finals.
Bayern avoided favourites Barcelona and Real Madrid in Friday s draw, and appear to have received a favourable tie against French club Marseille, who have been inconsistent in Ligue 1 this season.
Nevertheless, midfielder Schweinsteiger feels Didier Deschamps men are likely to prove worthy opponents as Bayern seek to reach the final at their Allianz Arena home.
It is a difficult task, but if we want to win the Champions League, we have to face up to it, he said.
The good thing is that our first match is away from home.
Schweinsteiger s team-mate Holger Badstuber acknowledged Bayern avoided some harder teams in th…
Jurgen Klopp has given Liverpool s scouts the credit for the signing of Mohamed Salah ahead of the 2017-18 season.
Salah has been a revelation for Klopp s side, scoring 19 goals in 25 matches in all competitions.
But the German insists Salah s signing for a club-record fee only came about because of the persistence of Liverpool s scouting staff.
Our scouting department did a fantastic job around Mo. They just didn t get out of our ears about him, he said.
It was 100 per cent, he is ready, he is ready. They did a great job, absolutely.
There is only a short period of the season we have played so far, but already I have been asked if I am surprised by what he is doing.
I could be surprised if I had thought about it because I didn t set …
Napoli have secured the services of Piotr Zielinski from Udinese for a fee believed to be in the region of €15 million.
The 22-year-old underwent a medical on Thursday before signing a five-year deal.
The midfielder had previously been linked with Liverpool and seemed set to continue his career at Anfield, but the Premier League side refused to meet Udinese s valuation of the player and he has now moved to the Stadio San Paolo instead.
Zielinski joined Udinese from Zaglebie Lubin at the age of 17 and made his debut for the Stadio Friuli side in November 2012. He was unable to secure regular first-team football at Udinese, though, and spent the past two seasons on loan Empoli, where he did enough to earn himself a move to Napoli.
