    Gloucestershire fast bowler James Fuller has left the county after turning down a new deal. 

    Fuller, 25, has played for the club since 2010 but has decided not to accept the contract offered.

    He was a key part of Gloucestershire's winning One-Day Cup campaign in 2015, taking 15 wickets including 2-34 in the final where he dismissed Surrey duo Jason Roy and Steven Davies.

    Fuller, who was born in Cape Town, South Africa, but holds a British passport, has taken 101 first-class wickets at an average of 33.90 with best figures of 6-24.

    Tom Shunkey Esteves, external When I was at school, playing in goal for the team against another school, about 5 mins in, someone booted the ball in the air towards my end. It should have been an easy catch, but I let it bounce, which was a mistake. It bounced awkwardly and almost went over my head. I started frantically running backwards. The ball bounced a second time and hit the bar. For about half a second I felt relieved, but one of their players had chased the ball down the field and when the ball came back out he was just waiting to score an easy header.

    Toro Rosso driver Max Verstappen is celebrating his 18th brithday today, and says he's now looking forward to getting his driving licence!

    The Dutch teenager was the first 17-year-old to race in Formula 1, but until now hasn't able to drive a road car in his home country of Belgium.

    He passed his theory test before the season started, and now has to do mandator lessons with an instructor in Belgium, and joked he might not pass first time.

    "You never know. If I go too fast or you don't use the indicators..."

    Why are English clubs struggling in Europe? BBC Sport's chief football writer Phil McNulty has been exploring the issue. Here are some of your comments from his blog.  

    Canaryboi: The Premier League has good players but too many, although technically gifted, are tactically naive or do not have the confidence of their managers to 'play the game' according to circumstances. Also, despite spending millions, some of the recent transfers don't add up, e.g. Benteke and Firmino in the same team - both expensive signings but they hardly complement each other. Again, tactical naivety.

    Konta (possibly sucking up to the crowd a bit): "Thank you to all of you for coming. You made a lot of noise and it is a wonderful stadium."

    Her first serve percentage was 72%, that was the key to victory.

    Konta, remember, had to play two matches just to qualify for this tournament. Sensational stuff.

    Well done from us - right, I'm now off for a brief cuppa, Bill will take over for a while..

    West Ham have been much better away from home this season than at Upton Park.  Mauro Zarate's proved he's got no problems playing at their training ground though...

    Konta will face Venus Williams in the quarter-final.

    Interviewed on court, she said: "It was a very tough match. She played at an unbelievable level. I was really happy I was able to take a few of the chances I created.

    "I feel humbled that I get the chance to come back tomorrow to compete again."

    Konta wins

    Astonishing, Konta recovers from 5-1 behind in the third set to win.

    She has become only the third British woman to beat a top three player.

    It is the biggest win of her career bar none and caps what have been a fantastic last few months.

    That is 21 victories from her last 22 matches. This girl is on the way up, big time.

    Konta wins

    Halep, suddenly staring down the barrel, has to respond. She moves to 30-15, but then Konta manoeuvres her shell-shocked opponent around the court before volleying a winner. 30-30.

    Halep goes wide with a backhand. Match point.

    And she's done it. Stunning.

    Wuhan Open 3rd round

    Halep spends the entire break between the games with her hand held to her face. She's grimacing and generally looking very unhappy.

    Konta has broken twice in succession. One more and she wins the match and chalks up the biggest victory of her career.

    Wuhan Open 3rd round

    Konta loses the opening point but wins a long, long rally to make it 15-15. It's astonishing how she has been able to match up to and even dominate Halep at times in the long rallies.

    Spoke too soon. A loose shot allows Halep to get to 15-30, but then Konta edges another fantastic rally to square it again. This is like a 12th-round slugfest between two heavyweights.

    Konta serves an ace at the perfect moment. 40-30. One more will do it. Halep, credit to her, digs in and Konta nets with a weak-looking backhand. Deuce.

    Good heavy Konta serve makes it advantage in the Brit's favour. And she wins another stunning rally to take the game.

    6-5 Konta. Halep serving to stay it. Who would have thought it.

    May we direct you towards this rather fine feature, written by BBC Sport's Jo Currie. Actually, you haven't got a say in the matter - we're going to anyway.

    It begins: "Laura Harvey is possibly best known in the UK for her time in charge of Arsenal Ladies, where she guided the club to three consecutive Women's Super League titles, one FA Cup and two Continental Cups.

    However, after moving to Seattle Reign in 2013, the 35-year-old is a big name in the United States of America too.

    So how has the former Birmingham City Ladies player tamed the women's football world in America?"
