First class, eh? We see you...

Breakthrough! Eventually.

Novak Djokovic blows five break points as he asks serious questions of Diego Schwartzman's serve, before the pressure eventually tells on the 24-year-old Argentine.

He drills a baseline forehand into the net in deuce, meaning Djoko will serve out for the second set. Or attempt to at least...

Never in doubt. The 12-time Grand Slam winner holds to love, clinching it with a dreamy forehand drop-shot that floats over the net and a booming ace out wide.

Cristiano Ronaldo claims that he is fresh and focused going into Saturday's match after another record-breaking season that saw him rested for nine league games by Real Madrid boss Zinedine Zidane.

"The business end of the season is important," said the 32-year-old, who struck the winning penalty in a shootout in last year's final.

"I feel good and want to be fit and firing because this is where things are decided.

"Winning the league helped calm us down a lot. We want to make history and be the first side to defend our title.

"I'm at the best level physically as I have in the last few seasons because I have played less. It is down to the intelligence of Zidane and my team-mates."

Ronaldo reached 400 goals for Real during the current season as well as 100 in the Champions League.

Not bad, eh?

Any sign of a Novak Djokovic recovery at Roland Garros? Hmmm, sort of.

After that wobble towards the end of the opening set, which helped Diego Schwartzman to nick a lead, the world number two is showing no signs of losing his serve again.

The problem he isn't looking like causing any damage either.

Schwartzman, the world number 41, has never beaten a top-10 player before. The demons in his mind might start piping up about that as this match goes on.

Awkward?

Not so much actually.

Novak Djokovic's old coach Boris Becker has interviewed Novak Djokovic's new coach Andre Agassi for Eurosport.

"I do it on my own time and on my own dime. I don't want anything, I want to help him," said Agassi.

Asked about whether he will go to Wimbledon with Djokovic the American answered: "If he wants me there, I will come".

Crystal Palace could be priced out of a permanent move for Liverpool defender Mamadou Sakho according to chairman Steve Parish.

The 27-year-old centre-back spent the second half of the season on loan at Selhurst Park, being nominated for the club's player of the season award despite making only eight appearances before injury intervened.

But Parish says the cost of a long-term deal - with Liverpool reportedly wanting £30m and Sakho's wages believed to be about £100,000-a-week - could be prohibitive.

“I think that is going to be a very difficult one for us to do. I think Liverpool want a big number for him. We need to look at the budgets and be realistic,” he told the Evening Standard. , external

Novak Djokovic is rattled. The defending champion has a horror of a game at 5-5 in the opening set of his third-round match against Diego Schwartzman, coughing up three break points.

And the 24-year-old Argentine, who is ranked 41st in the world, is gifted the first one by a poor drop-shot from the Serb.

Djoko has collapsed quicker than a Jenga tower.

Schwartzman wastes four set points as he attempts to serve out, eventually taking his fifth chance when Djoko sends a backhand long.

Are we going to have a shock on the cards here?

Real Madrid boss Zinedine Zidane must decide whether to choose between Gareth Bale and Isco for Saturday's Champions League final in Cardiff.

Bale has not played since 23 April but is fit, while in-form Isco has scored five goals in his last eight games.

Juventus boss Max Allegri also has a fully-fit squad to choose from.

Gianluigi Buffon, Giorgio Chellini, Alex Sandro, Mario Mandzukic and Leonardo Bonucci were all rested when Juve ended the Serie A season against Bologna last Saturday, while Dani Alves was suspended.

When you say 'met', you mean hovered behind him and took a Snapchat?

A popular US mascot is in trouble after he appeared to give the middle finger to fans.

Mr Met watched the New York Mets lose 7-1 to the Milwaukee Brewers in New York on Wednesday.

The gesture was captured as he exited the stadium and a clip was shared on Twitter, external.

The New York Mets have apologised for the "inappropriate" action of the employee, saying they were dealing with the matter "internally".

The plot thickens as to why Manchester United's mooted move for Antoine Griezmann has apparently hit the skids.

The Independent, external report that it was Griezmann's decision to stay at Atletico, as he felt he could not leave manager Diego Simeone in the lurch with the Spanish club banned from signing any replacement.

They claim that Griezmann, 26, has phoned Jose Mourinho to explain his reasoning and "it is believed by all parties that United could look to revive in the deal in the future".

I think the All Blacks feel that Owen Farrell might be more predictable than Jonny Sexton. Sexton has been part of the Irish team that went close to beating the All Blacks in Dublin and then actually did so in Chicago last year. He has performed well against New Zealand in the past and that has to be in Warren Gatland's consideration.

I think New Zealand would be more nervous about a Lions team with Sexton at 10, but there is not much to pick between him and Farrell, or indeed Dan Biggar who is no slug himself.

It has been throwing it down in Whangarei - where the Lions are due to play their Tour opener tomorrow morning UK time.

However our man on the scene Chris Jones was at the Toll Stadium a few hours ago and has few concerns.

The pitch - which has a sand base to help drainage - is in good condition and apparently the rain is finally letting up.

Defending champion Novak Djokovic has just got up and running on Court Philippe Chatrier against Argentina's Diego Schwartzman.

The Serb has taken the opening game on serve. An enticing meeting with France's Lucas Pouille might be on the cards in the fourth round.

We will bring you all the latest right here.

Crystal Palace are looking for their eighth manager in seven years, and chairman Steve Parish says he's not looking for someone to treat the club as a "stepping stone".

Sam Allardyce resigned as boss on 23 May after just five months in the role.

Allardyce replaced Alan Pardew in December on a two-and-half-year deal with the Eagles one point above the relegation zone.

He led the club to eight wins in 21 games to guide them to a 14th-place finish.

"In the past we have had managers like Steve Coppell who have been at the club a long time and helped build the club," said Parish.

"If we could get one of those relationships again that would be preferable."
