Tour de France Finale: Alpe d'Huez Showdown
The 170.9km stage from Bourg-d'Oisans to Alpe d'Huez features 5,450m of climbing and four categorised ascents, including the daunting Col de Sarenne. The race returns to its most iconic peak for the first time since 2022 when Tom Pidcock conquered the climb. Tadej Pogacar holds a commanding lead in the yellow jersey race, but his team is battling a sickness bug that could shake up the final standings.

Commonwealth Games: Nine Golds on the Line
Glasgow’s reduced 10-sport and six para-sport programme may not have the lustre of previous editions, but King Charles’s opening ceremony Tardis stunt has brought a fresh sense of uplift.

Eighteen-year-old Filip Nowacki, world junior breaststroke champion, aims to become Jersey’s first Commonwealth medallist since 1990.
