England’s Richard Mansell secured his first DP World Tour title at the 104th attempt with a superb final-hole birdie securing a one-stroke victory at the Porsche Singapore Classic.
Mansell’s wife, Ellie, was brought to tears as the 29-year-old two-putted from in excess of 100 feet to finish on 16 under at Sentosa, a shot clear of Japan’s Keita Nakajima.
Mansell carded a six-under 66 in the third and final round, registering five birdies in a row between holes four and eight as he hit the turn with a two-shot advantage.

He then made another gain at 13 after a solitary bogey at 10 but headed to the 18th level with clubhouse leader Nakajima after the Japanese completed a blemish-free, seven-under round of 65 with a birdie at 18.
Mansell’s heroics denied Nakajima at least a play-off, while Northern Ireland’s Tom McKibbin ended up joint-third on 14 under with English pair Marcus Armitage (13 under) and Matthew Jordan (12 under) finishing fifth and tied sixth respectively.
The tournament had been reduced to 54 holes after a monsoon entirely wiped out day one.

Mansell: So many people have believed in me
Mansell said: “What a feeling. First week with a new caddie [David Kenny] so that was a good start and a couple of times he got me to slow down.
“It makes those near misses and when I’ve got ahead of myself in the past just kind of worth it and it just means that much more.
“In 2022 I had quite a few close calls and didn’t get it done. Looking back on it I probably should’ve kept doing what I was doing and it probably would’ve happened a lot sooner.
“But I went searching, I tried to change and I became quite good at pointing the finger, blaming other people why it hadn’t happened.

“I started just not enjoying it as much and I just got a little bit lost from where I’d actually come from. Ellie, my wife, has been so supportive.
“It’s taken a lot of work these past six months. I’ve just had to stay patient and forget everyone else and that was my main thing today, to focus on myself.
“Luckily I had an opportunity on the last hole to hole a putt for the win and I managed to do it.
“It’s amazing. I’ve just been on the phone to my mum and dad and Ellie’s parents. So many people have supported me and believed in me when I stopped doing it myself.
“One thing I’d say to people trying to do it as a career, that moment’s the most fulfilling thing in the world and it’s worth it. So stick in and hopefully you’ll get rewarded one day like I have today.”

F1 Singapore GP live updates: FP3 latest as Lawson crashes again, qualifying to come at Marina Bay
Between the two red flags — for session-ending crashes from George Russell and Liam Lawson — and the very strange unsafe release incident with Charles Leclerc and Lando Norris (more on that in a moment), second practice in Singapore wasn’t quite as useful to teams as they may have hoped.The lack of time to get in some proper long runs left the teams a step behind their typical preparations, with the added challenge being that today’s final remaining practice takes place in different conditions to both qualifying and tomorrow’s race — basically before the sun has gone down in Singapore. Nevertheless, McLaren will have enjoyed Oscar Piastri topping the session, one-tenth of a second clear of Isack Hadjar who finished a surprise P2 for Racing Bulls. Max Verstappen got third for Red Bull ahead of Fernando Alonso in fourth, continuing […]
Five keys to Bo Nix and the Broncos authoring an upset in marquee matchup vs. Eagles
ENGLEWOOD, Colo. — The Broncos will visit the Philadelphia Eagles on Sunday in search of what would arguably be the biggest win of the Sean Payton era in Denver.Just don’t call it a measuring-stick game.“We know we’re a good team and can go into an opponent’s house and win a football game,” said Nik Bonitto, the Broncos pass rusher who may be playing better through four games than any defensive player in football. “I don’t think it’s a measuring stick. We know who we are.”AdvertisementThat may be true, but the world outside the Broncos’ locker room will have a much better idea of what this team is capable of this season following Sunday’s marquee matchup, which precedes a weeklong trip to London for the Broncos ahead of a Week 6 game against the Jets.

Blake Lively surprises Taylor Swift with a gesture of support amid the breakdown of their friendship
Blake Lively appeared to extend an unexpected gesture of goodwill toward Taylor Swift after the launch of her new album, as speculation continues over the breakdown of their once-close friendship. The actress quietly "liked" Swift's Instagram post celebrating the release of The Life of a Showgirl, signaling a possible thaw in their relationship after a tense period full of legal drama.The interaction drew significant attention because it arrived amid rumors that one of Swift's new tracks, "Ruin the Friendship," reflects tension between the two. Online speculation spread rapidly after fans noted parallels between the title and reports of a cooling relationship. However, industry insiders have indicated the song's lyrics, centered on a teenage romance, are unrelated to Lively or their reported fallout as there is no obvious sign of change on the end of the Grammy-winning arist.Swift, 35, marked the […]

Do kabiny přichází první, odchází poslední. Liberec pečuje o fotbalový klenot
Na začátku června Liberec vyhrál bitvu o mladého rakouského reprezentanta do 21 let, jehož získal z Lafnitzu po sestupu ze druhé ligy. „Nebylo snadné ho získat v konkurenci větších a bohatších klubů, ale podařilo se nám hráče přesvědčit díky našemu rychlému jednání a dlouhodobému plánu,“ nepřímo tehdy potvrdil generální ředitel Liberce Jan Nezmar spekulace o velkém zájmu o talentovaného záložníka ze strany Plzně či Sturmu Graz. „Pro Slovan jsem se rozhodl, protože si myslím, že to pro mě teď bude ten nejlepší krok,“ poznamenal Rakušan s bosenskými kořeny, jenž U Nisy podepsal smlouvu do roku 2029. Než si koupíte vstupenku na zápas s Bohemkou, připomeňte si výhru v Hradci v novém Behind The Scenes.— FC Slovan Liberec (@FCSlovanLiberec) October 1, 2025 V úvodu soutěže však ještě tolik šancí nedostával.
