G'day sports fans,

With the Titans breaking their 364-day winless streak, I took a look at some of the longest losing streaks in sport.

EPL: Sunderland 2002/03 season with 15 straight defeats

NFL: Detroit Lions Lose 19 Straight Games (2007/09 - 643 days)

PGA: Over 260 Events Later, Charlie Wi is Still Searching for his First PGA Tour win (2002 -present). He's missed nearly 40% of the cuts. As Happy Gilmore taught us, you can still win money without winning golf tournaments. And Wi has made over $10 million on the PGA Tour.

Tyzone scores Stradbroke as Eagle Farm track a talking point again

On a day when the rock-hard Eagle farm track was a major talking point, Tyzone pulled off a plan that was 12 months in the making to give the father and son training team of Toby and Trent Edmonds their first Group I win.

Right from the moment that former north Queensland gelding Tyzone finished runner-up behind Trekking in last year’s Stradbroke, a plot was hatched for him to go one better in the 2020 Stradbroke.

Both Edmonds were full of emotion after also collecting their first Group I when Tyzone ($14) prevailed in a driving finish over roughie Madam Rouge ($51) with Niccanova ($14) finishing third.

“That’s big – 12 months ago he ran second and he has been carrying big weights since, we knew when he got back to handicap conditions he was going to be hard to beat at the right distance,” Toby Edmonds said.

“Trent and I work good together and he’s a great kid – it’s just bloody good.”

Trent Edmonds wiped back tears as he told how the training team was confident of snaring the Stradbroke as they always felt Tyzone was going better than at the same stage last year.

“From the time he ran second last year we hatched a plan,” Trent Edmonds said. (racenet)

👊🏻 UFC

Conor McGregor says he has retired from fighting - for the third time in four years.

Ireland's former two-weight UFC champion, 31, has a record of 22 wins and four defeats.

His last fight, in January 2020, saw him beat American fan favourite Donald 'Cowboy' Cerrone in just 40 seconds in Las Vegas.

He has previously announced his retirement in 2016 and 2019 before twice returning to the octagon.

"Hey guys I've decided to retire from fighting," he said on Twitter on Sunday.

"Thank you all for the amazing memories! What a ride it's been!"

McGregor added: "The game just does not excite me, and that's that. All this waiting around. There's nothing happening. (BBC)

Amanda Nunes outclasses resilient Felicia Spencer

Amanda Nunes cemented her status as an all-time great of the sport with a display of complete dominance in her unanimous decision win over Canadian contender Felicia Spencer at UFC 250 in Las Vegas.

The judges scored the contest 50-44, 50-44, 50-45.

"When she connected the first punch on me, I knew she would never knock me out," said Nunes after her victory.

🏀 Houston Rockets star James Harden's big night out

Harden’s jersey was hoisted to the rafters inside a Houston strip club after the 2018 NBA MVP spent one absurd night throwing money around like it was going out of fashion.

Harden signed a four-year, $AUD245 million contract extension with the Rockets with his base salary for 2019/20 sitting at $54 million, according to spotrac.

Harden reportedly blew $1.43 million at one of Houston’s establishments.

🎾 Novak Djokovic: US Open coronavirus protocols 'extreme'

World number one Novak Djokovic has called the coronavirus safety protocols, planned in order for the US Open to take place, "extreme".

The hard-court Grand Slam tournament is scheduled to start on 31 August at Flushing Meadows in New York.

"We would not have access to Manhattan, we would have to sleep in hotels at the airport, to be tested twice or three times per week," said Djokovic.

"Also, we could bring one person to the club which is really impossible."

The 33-year-old, speaking to Prva TV in his native Serbia, added: "I mean, you need your coach, then a fitness trainer, then a physiotherapist."

World number two Rafael Nadal said on Thursday he currently has little desire to travel to New York to defend his US Open title. (BBC)

Sam Kerr’s Chelsea have been crowned champions of the Women’s Super League, overtaking Manchester City on a points-per-game record, with Liverpool relegated as clubs agree on a conclusion to the 2019-20 season.

The WSL and Women’s Championship seasons were ended with immediate effect last month and all clubs were given three options to resolve the final standings.

At the point of the league’s suspension in March, Manchester City were top of the WSL on 40 points from 16 games while Chelsea were a point behind having played one fewer game. (Fox)
