2024 Road And Para Cycling Road World Championships

The 2024 Road and Para-Cycling Road World Championships commenced at the weekend in Zurich, Switzerland, and are scheduled to conclude on Sunday. This event features a total of 53 races, comprising 11 competitions for non-para athletes and 42 for para-cyclists. The championships have attracted approximately 1,300 competitors from over 75 nations, including a contingent from Ireland. The prestigious event is broadcast by Eurosport and the BBC throughout its duration from September 21 to September 29.

Meanwhile, the 2024 Presidents Cup is taking place at the Royal Montreal Golf Club in Canada. This golf tournament, styled after the Ryder Cup, sees men’s teams from the United States competing against those from the rest of the world, excluding Europe. Historically, the US team has dominated the event, having captured 12 out of the 14 meetings, with one contest ending in a draw. With prominent players such as Scottie Scheffler and Xander Schauffele on the roster, the US team is poised to extend their winning streak to ten consecutive victories.

In the realm of soccer, Bayer Leverkusen achieved a remarkable feat last season by finishing the Bundesliga unbeaten, thereby ending Bayern Munich‘s hegemony, who previously secured 11 consecutive titles. The anticipation is palpable as Bayern Munich, who now boast Harry Kane among their ranks, prepare for the new season. The Allianz Arena is set to witness a keen contest between Bayern Munich and the reigning champions as both teams are eager to establish an early advantage in the 2024-25 Bundesliga campaign.
