Ice Hockey: Dan Paille scored in overtime to lift the Boston Bruins to a 2-1 win over the Chicago Blackhawks in Game Two of the Stanley Cup Final on Saturday to level the best-of-seven series. It marked the second straight game that needed overtime to find a winner after Chicago won Game One on Wednesday in triple-overtime. Another tight game unfolded on Saturday and it looked like multiple overtime periods might be needed again until Paille struck.

Golf: Muggy, overcast and breezy conditions greeted the early starters at the US Open yesterday as Tiger Woods again battled and overnight leader Phil Mickelson prepared for a late tee-off in the final round. While Merion’s East Course has given the game’s best players a challenging test all week, it has also rewarded good golf shots and Canada’s Mike Weir was among those to benefit, ending his tournament with a one-under-par 69.

Rugby Union: Debutant Marland Yarde scored two tries as England completed a clean sweep in Argentina for the first time with an emphatic 51-26 victory in the second test on Saturday. Coach Stuart Lancaster’s team, touring without the England members of the British and Irish Lions squad who are in Australia, went one better than the 1981 side who took the series with a win and a draw.

Tennis: Sixteen-year-old Croatian Donna Vekic was denied her first WTA title as she lost 7-6 (5) 6-4 to Tour stalwart Daniela Hantu-chova in the Aegon Classic final in Birmingham yesterday. Vekic, the youngest player in the top 350 in the rankings, fell in her second final of the year as Hantuchova’s greater experience edged her to her first title at the Wimbledon warm-up event at Edgbaston, having been runner-up in 2011. Slovakian former world number five Hantuchova, 30, claimed her sixth career title.
