Rosberg hangs on to win Singapore Grand Prix, Hamilton finishes third

Nico Rosberg produced a wire to wire victory at the Singapore Grand Prix to re-take over the lead of the Formula One Drivers' Championship from his Mercedes teammate Lewis Hamilton, who finished third. Rosberg's win was his third straight after the summer break in what has been an incredible season of momentum swings from one Mercedes star to the other. Rosberg had to battle hard to stay ahead of Red Bull's Australian driver Daniel Ricciardo who charged hard in the last few laps to come in second, just 0.488 seconds behind the German, whose decision to stay out on wearing tyres was justified in the end. Hamilton was third, 8.038 seconds behind as the Briton fell eight points behind Rosberg in the drivers' standings.

Alexander Levy wins again in Germany

Alexander Levy became the youngest Frenchman in history to claim three European Tour titles, after overcoming England’s Ross Fisher on the second hole of a play-off at the Porsche European Open. After both players had parred the 18th hole first time around, Levy clinched victory with a 30 foot putt at the second time of asking to end a weather-affected week at Golf Resort Bad Griesbach in dramatic fashion.

Azahara Muñoz Makes history at Home

Home favourite Azahara Muñoz pipped Beth Allen at the final hole to become the first Spanish winner in the history of the Andalucía Costa del Sol Open de España Femenino, playing virtually in her own back garden. Muñoz fired rounds of 72, 66, 70 and 70 to end with a 72-hole total of 10-under-par and finish one stroke clear of Allen at the gorgeous Aloha Golf Club in Marbella, just a month after becoming the first Spanish woman to tee off in the Olympic Games in Rio de Janeiro.
