    Formula One driver Max Verstappen's likely to need around 10 days to recover from his accident in the British Grand Prix at Silverstone

    Formula One driver Max Verstappen's likely to need around 10 days to recover from his accident in the British Grand Prix at Silverstone

    Families of NRL league players can now join them in Queensland.

    All of the teams are based there so the competition can continue amid Covid-19 outbreaks in New South Wales and Victoria.

    Ryan Fox has revealed he broached the subject of Brooks Koepka's feud with Bryson De Chambeau while playing with the four-times major champion during the final round of the Open Championship.

    Koepka and De Chambeau have traded barbs for more than two years, starting with a slow play complaint from Koepka aimed at the former US Open champion in 2019.

    The feud's been accentuated on social media and Fox says he was under pressure from mates to raise the issue.
