I Rossoneri e Wie

The AC Milan side goes to Holland with a 2-0 advantage in the second round of the semis against PSV Eindhoven in Champions League play.

DUTCH KEPT AT BAY

Milan take an important 2-0 lead into their Champions League semi-final second leg against PSV Eindhoven, thanks to goals at the end of each half of the home first leg. Andriy Shevchenko put the Rossoneri ahead on 42 minutes in a first period that Carlo Ancelotti’s side dominated. However, the Dutch champions were much more dangerous coming forward after the break and the Milan defence were under plenty of pressure, but the course of the tie changed in the dying moments as substitute Jon Dahl Tomasson swept home a loose ball from close range to send the San Siro into raptures of delight.

Wie could be first woman at Open

Wie could gain qualification at the John Deere Classic
American teenager Michelle Wie could become the first woman to play in The Open at St Andrews later this year.

Organisers have agreed for the first time to allow women to enter if they qualify through the normal channels.

The ruling opens the door for the 15-year-old, the only female golfer who has so far targeted an Open place.

She has accepted an invitation to play at July's John Deere Classic, which gives an Open place to the leading player who hasn't already qualified.

Until Tuesday's ruling, the Royal & Ancient Golf Club would have been forced to refuse Wie entry even in the unlikely event she had won the John Deere Classic because it has a "men-only" restriction on the Open entry form.

The R&A has already voted to remove it in time for next year's tournament at Hoylake near Liverpool although it was too late to remove the restriction for this year's event.

But on Tuesday officials said they would waive it if the Hawaiian youngster qualified.
