Sunday looks like being the better of the two days of the weekend. But saturday, rain around and some of it looks to be heavy as well. The Rain Tending to push eastwards with showers following to northern ireland, wales on the south west. The top temperature around 22, 20 three celsius across eastern areas. On sunday, the main Rain Band will fade away from Eastern England and we will be left with a day of sunshine and showers. Showers could be heavy, thundery and potentially slow moving across parts of the midlands, central, Southern England and perhaps the south east. We will have to keep an eye on those dampers. Next week should be dry with some sunshine. Thank you, for that. Thats it, so goodbye from me. Now on bbc one, letsjoin our News Teams where you are. Have a very good evening. Hello, welcome to sportsday. Im austin halewood. Heres whats coming up in the programme. Yorkshire Cricket Club apologises to their former Player Azeem Rafiq after an investigation into allegations of racism. Well be live at carnoustie, as the final Womens Golf major of the year the British Open gets under way. And the Manchester United and Scotland Legend Denis law says hes been diagnosed with dementia. Also on the programme tonight. The partnership looking to win gold again at the paralympics in tokyo. Good evening, welcome to sportsday. Well be live to scotland shortly as the first round of the womens open at carnoustie draws to a close, but we start tonight with the news that Yorkshire County Cricket Club have apologised to their former player, Azeem Rafiq, after he was the victim of, what they call, inappropriate and unacceptable behaviour. Rafiq said last year that institutional racism at The Club had left him close to taking his own life. Well, an independent investigation started last september, with the ecb writing to The Club this week to ask for a copy of the findings. In a statement today, yorkshire said that several of the allegations were upheld and that they offered their profound apologies to rafiq. They also acknowledged that they had failed to implement their own policies and procedures, but stopped short of admitting blame. Rafiq responded on Social Media today, saying he was frustrated and angry and he questioned Yorkshires Reference to the phrase inappropriate behaviour, claiming that The Club is fudging the issue. Well, rafiq spoke earlier to the bbc� s ankur desai. A year ayearof. Get a year of. Get people to listen. Giving them an opportunity to do the right thing. Im frustrated, pretty angry. To try and even say that these are historical things, yes, this was ten years ago, but predominately, most of my allegations are the people that are still there in leadership positions. I am sick and tired of this. I am sick and tired of given these people an opportunity to the detriment of myself. The damage this is because me, i dont know when i will actually know. Ive given them countless opportunities to do the right thing. Clearly, these people are not to be trusted. Its just not on. I am sick and tired of it now. Well, lets get more on this with our correspondent katie gornall, whos been following the story. Katie, when can we expect to hear more from yorkshire with the full findings of this report . Findings of this report . Hopefully soon because findings of this report . Hopefully soon because its findings of this report . Hopefully soon because its already findings of this report . Hopefully soon because its already taken l findings of this report . Hopefully | soon because its already taken so much longer than expected. We heard from anchors the emotional toll that has taken on Azeem Rafiq. Yorkshire acknowledged that today and apologise. Yesterday, the ecb put some pressure on yorkshire to release the timeline, and in response, yorkshire say they expect to release the report in the coming weeks. You have to say, its unlikely that they would probably do that before the end of englands third test against india, which coincidentally is heading again. Thats when we will hopefully get more detail of the nature of the allegations. Why some have upheld over others. Yorkshire said they hope the report can be a catalyst for important change at The Club. The port itself wont dry a line draw a line because Azeem Rafiq is perfect doing a separate claim against The Club under the equality act. Hes suing The Club and alleging discrimination and victimisation. In the employment tribunal, have so flight so far failed to reach the resolution. It is about to enter the next stage. It all means this certainly isnt the last well hear from yorkshire and Azeem Rafiq. Last well hear from yorkshire and Azeem Rafiq Azeem Rafiq. Katie gore there. Thank ou ve Azeem Rafiq. Katie gore there. Thank you very much staying with cricket, afghanistan Bowler Naveen Ul Haq says hes struggling to sleep with worrying about the situation in his country.

Im just so happy to be here and i really love playing this event. 8000 fans are at the Course And Plenty of them will have been getting behind amateur louise duncan. The scot said she had a ridiculous amount of fun during her first round, this Eagle Putt on the 14th the highlight. Shes tied fourth, one shot back from the lead. Lots for the home fans to cheer there. Well, lets go live to the course and speak to our golf correspondent, ian carter. Lets start with Nelly Korda. She came in as the World Number 21. With so much pressure on her shoulder, she delivered. She delivered. Eight birdies in that round. She delivered. Eight birdies in that round the she delivered.

Eight birdies in that round. The way she responded to l she delivered. Eight birdies in that. Round. The way she responded to each of her drops with birdies immediately afterwards was really very impressive, most notably the bogey on the 16th and birdies at the 17th. And the 18th. Both of those holes constitute a very testing finish. Super brown from a player who has commanded much of the attention and the Build Up to the championship. But attention and the buildup to the championship championship. But she far from ulled championship. But she far from pulled away championship. But she far from pulled away because championship. But she far from pulled away because lots championship. But she far from pulled away because lots of championship. But she far from i pulled away because lots of british interest at the top of the leaderboard already. The most Catchinu Leaderboard already. The most catching Performance Leaderboard already. The most catching performance undoubtedly was that from louise duncan, the womens amateur champion, who is here 21 years of age. She had dean robertson, who helped her with her game at sterling university. Playing alongside Georgia Hall, who was also in the four under par. The day of her Golfing Life so far for louise duncan, who looks really fantastic prospect.

Nicknamed Car Nasty, but lots of players under par today. It was a real opportunity to take advantage of a course that had been softened by overnight and early morning rain. Then the breeze dropped as well. Nelly korda talked about the opportunity to play much more aggressively. She knew with softer file that no wind she would have the links to go after the course softer fairways. Thats why the scoring has been so low. If that wind picks up, it will get back to Car Nasty as the tournament continues. Ads, to Car Nasty as the tournament continues to Car Nasty as the tournament continues.

The 81 year old says he has alzheimers and vascular dementia. Hes the latest former player to reveal he has the degenerative brain disease, and he and his family are now getting support from the alzheimers society charity. He says he wants to remain as optimistic as possible and added in his statement. Manchester united have sent their best wishes to denis and his family and said. Kate lee is the Chief Executive of the alzheimers society, and she told me that she hopes Laws Bravery in coming forward will encourage others to seek the help they need. Getting a dementia diagnosis, even if you know something has been wrong, sometimes people live with that for quite a long time before they get the diagnosis. Sometimes its a release to know that something is wrong and to be able to put a name to that, but also incredibly sad. For lots of families, thinking and planning and reflecting and coming to terms with that diagnosis, so all our love goes to the family at the moment.
