Snooker mourns six-time world champion Ray Reardon after his death, aged 91PA Sport StaffSix-time world snooker champion Ray Reardon has died at the age of 91. The Welshman died on Friday night, his wife Carol confirmed to the World Snooker Tour. He was fortunate to see the next day, let alone land six World Championship titles – his last in 1978 aged 45. Ben and Ray Reardon found work at the Florence Colliery in 1956 and in the following year disaster almost struck. “Someone decided the outfit made me look like Dracula and that name stuck to me more than most,” Reardon later said.

Playwright Lou Harry and director Katherine Michelle Tanner had similar reactions when they first read the 2016 book “We Are Still Tornadoes.” They couldn’t put it down and imagined it as a play. “It was such a pleasantly and movingly digestible book, a quick read but a strong one. The movie rights also were sold but Tree Fort got permission to stage the play. Harry, who has published dozens of books and written numerous plays, said he feels like “more of a midwife of this book becoming a play. “I hope the film gets made and if it keeps the play from being staged, so be it,” he said.

Profile of a Parkrunner: Meet Edenderry's Finbar RedmondMeet Finbar Redmond, from Edenderry, who has recently completed his 150th parkrun at Mountlucas parkrun. My favourite thing about parkrun is the friendliness, getting to meet new people, the interaction, getting to do something outdoors. I’ve ran one in Washington DC, in Cleveland, in Cornwall in the UK, and I’ve ran numerous ones around Ireland. Some of my favourite parkrun moments are (and other people mightn’t understand this!) The best way to describe Mountlucas parkrun is one of the friendliest parkruns I’ve been to.

David Nash’s collection, No Man’s Land, is filled with poems that act as monuments to absence and loss. The poems in this striking collection are notable as much for what is not present as for what is. All through the book we see landscapes changing, not being what they were or what they should be. We also see poems that grieve for loss of language, means of expression, the Irish language in particular. We see none of the things that normally populate contemporary poetry collections such as love, heartbreak, illness, grief, or parenthood.

Rory McIlroy says he was beaten by wind at Troon as hunt for fifth major goes onPhil Casey, PA Golf CorrespondentRory McIlroy’s bid to win a fifth major title will stretch into another decade after he suffered his second worst performance in the Open Championship. Five weeks after his heartbreaking loss in the US Open, McIlroy added a second round of 75 to his opening 78 at Royal Troon to finish 11 over par, a single shot better than he managed at Muirfield in 2013. Further shots went on the fifth and sixth before conditions eased slightly and McIlroy followed seven straight pars with a birdie on the 14th after holing out from a greenside bunker. “I feel like I say this every Open Championship, but it’s not as if we only play four events a year,” McIlroy added. “We play like 25, so there’s still a few things there’s left to play for.
