· TENNIS: Roger Federer won his 500th career match, a 6-4, 6-0 victory over David Ferrer in the quarterfinals of the Monte Carlo Masters.
"I am very happy to have done it here," said Federer, who reached the final in Monte Carlo last year. "That is a lot of games. I'm glad they are victories."
· CRICKET: No one, it seems, can stop two-time defending World Cup champion Australia.
South Africa, West Indies, England and Sri Lanka were all beaten by huge margins and neutral fans were looking to New Zealand to halt captain Ricky Ponting's team. The result? New Zealand's biggest loss in one-day cricket.
Australia raced to 348 for six in Grenada and then bowled the Kiwis out for 133 for a 215-run victory to take its World Cup winning streak to 21 games.
"Right at the moment we're very confident," Ponting said.
· AUTO RACING: Sebastien Bourdais won the provisional pole for the Champ Car World Series Grand Prix of Houston; he circled the 1.69-mile course in 58.376 seconds.
The defending champion hit 103.789 mph on his fastest lap in his Panoz DP01 to clinch a front-row start tomorrow.
Two weeks ago in Las Vegas, Bourdais had three flat tires, then hit the wall and finished 13th in what he called the worst performance he could remember. . . .
Clint Bowyer won a stirring duel with Matt Kenseth, taking the lead with 14 laps to go and holding on in the Busch Series race at Phoenix International Raceway.
Kenseth, who won the Busch race last weekend in Texas, appeared on the way to another victory when he made a strong pass on the outside to take away the lead from Bowyer 31 laps from the end of the 200-lap Bashas' Supermarkets 200.
The former Nextel Cup champion started to pull away, but Bowyer didn't give up.
