    Compliments in the game of golf don't come much more precious than those from Jack Nicklaus and he has praised Jordan Spieth after the 21-year-old's Masters win.

    "That was an incredible performance," says six-time Masters champion Nicklaus in a statement.

    "I like everything about the young man. He's polite. He's humble. He handles himself so well, on and off the golf course. And he's obviously a wonderful player and now a Masters champion.

    "I think Jordan Spieth is a great person - just as I think Rory McIlroy is - to carry the mantle for the game of golf."

    Northampton Saints head coach Jim Mallinder does not want the Premiership leaders to change their style of play despite suffering back-to-back defeats.

    Having exited the European Champions Cup after a 37-5 loss to Clermont Auvergne, they were defeated 21-10 by Exeter in the Premiership on Sunday.

    "We want our players to play with ambition and move the ball," Mallinder told BBC Radio Northampton.

    "We just have to make sure that, at the right times, we look after the ball."

  5. Twelve point Boro targetpublished at 14:38 British Summer Time 13 April 2015

    Middlesbrough are fourth in the Championship but just two points off top spot. Boro play Wolves on Tuesday before games against Norwich, Fulham and Brighton and manager Aitor Karanka wants a 100% points haul to help the club achieve automatic promotion into the Premier League.

    "We have to win our games," Karanka told the Middlesbrough Gazette. "I think by winning four games we will get promotion, but it is very difficult.

    "We have to forget the other teams and just concentrate on our games. We will prepare to win each game but you never know.

    "At this stage of the season every single point is important."

    Patrick Bamford has apologised to Middlesbrough strike partner Kike for missing a penalty they argued over near the end of Saturday's 2-0 Championship win against Rotherham.

    Spanish striker Kike was fouled inside the box during injury time, prompting his claims to take the spot-kick but Bamford took it as the designated taker.

    "It's all sorted. I spoke to Kike and apologised," Bamford told BBC Tees.

    "If I'd scored it would have been fine but the goalkeeper has made a good save, it's one of those things. If you take penalties you'll miss some, and I felt bad missing it."

  7. Rotherham charged for ineligible playerpublished at 14:19 British Summer Time 13 April 2015

    Rotherham have been charged by the Football League with fielding an ineligible player.

    Defender Farrend Rawson, on loan from Derby County, played the full 90 minutes as the Millers beat Brighton 1-0 earlier this month.

    The Football League said a football disciplinary commission will hear the case at the "earliest possible opportunity" so the matter is resolved before the end of the season.

    Rotherham are 21st in the Championship.

  11. Get Involvedpublished at 13:49 British Summer Time 13 April 2015

    With Manchester City's league title defence in tatters and the club set to end the season without a trophy, we're asking whether their manager Manuel Pellegrini should stay or go?

    Let us know via Twitter using #bbcsportsday and via the BBC Sport Facebook page. Here are some of your replies...

    Richie Macca: City fans thinking Guardiola would cash in his chips at Bayern and go to a club with form for sacking mgrs. Get a grip.

    Gambino: What makes people think that Pep wants to join Man City? I personally think he likes managing big clubs with a lot of history

    Tambuwal: Pellegrini has to go simple. It was Liverpool handed City the title last season. He only wins league cup for City.

  12. Brown bats on for Sussexpublished at 13:46 British Summer Time 13 April 2015

    BBC Radio Solent's Kevan James in Southampton: Sussex have put themselves in a good position here having built on their overnight 300-6.

    Manchester City have lost five Premier League games in 2015, one more than in the whole of 2014, and it seems their focus is now on a top-four finish to qualify for next season's Champions League rather than keeping their top-flight crown.

    "It is time to analyse what we are doing wrong and try to improve for the next few games," said City right-back Pablo Zabaleta following the defeat by Manchester United on Sunday.

    "There are still 18 points to play for and we must be honest with ourselves and start to push hard, play better and win games, so we can get in the top four."

    Will Tavare and Chris Dent put on 85 for the first wicket but they both fell to Azharullah who was the pick of the home side's attack.

    The Northants bowlers got the ball to move about, but didn't trouble the batsmen enough on another cold and gloomy day.

  17. Robson going well for Middlesexpublished at 13:24 British Summer Time 13 April 2015

    BBC Radio Nottingham's Dave Bracegirdle at Lord's: Middlesex enjoyed the better of the exchanges on the second morning against Nottinghamshire at Lord's. Under cloudy skies they quickly polished off the visitors' first innings without addition to the overnight score of 298.

    Openers Sam Robson and Nick Gubbins then added 51 together without any inconvenience before Harry Gurney bowled Gubbins for 23. South African Vernon Philander, on his Notts debut, struck a vital blow by then removing Nick Compton to leave the home side on 70-2.

    Middlesex are likely to be without Dawid Malan for the remainder of the match after x-rays confirmed that he'd broken a finger whilst fielding on the first day.

  19. Durham close in on Somerset scorepublished at 13:14 British Summer Time 13 April 2015

    BBC Sport's Elizabeth Ammon in Taunton: A very pleasant mild morning at the County Ground saw Durham progress comfortably for the first hour until the century partnership between Scott Borthwick and Michael Richardson was broken by Lewis Gregory who induced an edge to remove Richardson for 59.

    Borthwick fell agonisingly six runs short of century after a fluent innings of 94 from 110 deliveries that included 17 boundaries. Somerset's Jamie Overton has been bowling with impressive pace in front of national selector James Whittaker.

    Despite the loss of two wickets, Durham have progressed their score on at a good rate and trail by just 77. Durham 224-2 at lunch.

    Fit again Gareth Andrew with an aggressive 59 helped them to the third batting point before Jack Brooks with 5/65 polished Worcestershire off.
