Here’s how to follow along with our coverage – the finest writing and up-to-the-minute reports
Tom Bassam has all the buildup to Saturday’s bumper football action. He’ll spin through the headlines and look ahead to eight Premier League fixtures, with team news and breaking stories. First action of the day is the lunchtime kick-off at the Emirates Stadium, where Arsenal host Nottingham Forest and English football welcomes back its favourite not-for-turning Aussie. Ange Postecoglou is back in work after replacing Nuno Espírito Santo at the City Ground, less than three months after leaving Spurs. David Hytner and Barney Ronay provide expert reports and analysis, with Rob Smyth providing online coverage.
The worlds get rolling in Tokyo and we have all the action covered. Fellow sprinters Dina Asher-Smith and Daryll Neita may be more familiar names, but the Grantham athlete Amy Hunt is enjoying an excellent season. The 23-year-old British 100m champion has set personal bests in three events this year, though she faces a stacked lineup in both the 100m and 200m in Tokyo. Hunt and the British women, who landed Olympic silver in Paris, have high hopes for the 4x100m relay, an event they enter with a world-leading 41.69sec set in July. Hunt, Asher-Smith and Neita all also go in the 100m heats, while fellow British athletes Erin Wallace, Revée Walcott-Nolan and Laura Muir feature in the 1500m heats and Megan Keith races in the women’s 10,000m final. John Brewin analyses the action live, while Sean Ingle reports from Tokyo.
