香港男、女子七人欖球隊今日在香港大球場角逐「亞洲七人欖球外圍賽2015」，為爭取明年里約熱內盧奧運的出線資格而努力。男子隊今日在三場分組賽悉數勝出，而女子隊則以兩勝一負暫列第三位，保持出線機會。

香港男子隊作為B隊頭號種籽，加上主場出戰，支持球迷眾多，結果不負眾望，順利勝出三場分組賽，穩佔B組首名的地位。香港只要在明天上午對馬來西亞的最後一場小組勝出，便可確保四強出線資格。

香港隊在傍晚舉行的第三場分組賽卻未能乘著兩場勝仗的氣勢，表現大起大落，讓港隊支持者抹一把汗。港隊在比賽初段失準，相反斯里蘭卡有備而戰，在上半 場利用體力和速度壓制港隊取得兩次達陣，迅速領先12:0；隊長禾獲特發揮其領袖本色，在逆境中為球隊扳回一球追近至5:12，球隊頓時士氣大振，加上全 場球迷的打氣支持，港隊在下半場氣勢轉盛，分別由T麥堅、韋馬克、美爾斯及A麥堅同心協力地攻下四次達陣，終以27:12反敗為勝，成功為港隊取得三連 勝，暫列B組首名，斯里蘭卡及馬來西亞則以兩勝一負的成績分別排在小組第二及第三位。

日本隊在A組同樣取得三戰全勝的佳績，而韓國及中國則以兩勝一負分別排在小組第二及第三位。

香港女子隊在今日三場分組賽中取得兩勝一負，排名暫列第三位，明天餘下的兩場分組賽將會面對哈薩克和關島，只要取得全勝仍有機會爭奪香港站冠軍。

 女子隊在下午舉行的第二場分組賽面對勁敵中國隊，港隊無論在身材和速度都不及對手，過往對壘多次均落敗。今仗港隊主場出擊，在全場球迷的喝采聲中將士用 命，不僅成功力抗中國隊的強力突破，更努力組織反擊，終於在上半場中段得到回報。當時雙方在中場混戰多時，皮球輾轉落到潘栢茵的手中，她咬緊牙關衝破對手 的防線，終於在左路邊線達陣得分。港隊最後亦憑著這個全場唯一的入球以5:0擊敗中國取得兩連勝。

香港女子隊在第三場分組賽面對大熱門日 本，球隊在兩次激戰之後體力明顯下降，上半場不到一分鐘便已失守，被日本隊中路達陣落後0:5；港隊今仗持球多番失誤，多次被對手在中場搶截成功並突破防 線，港隊失守半場落後0:19。下半場港隊未能成功調整狀態，先次兩度失守，最後更在前場失球後讓對手持球60米直奔底線，結果以0:36敗陣。

日本今日取得三戰全勝取得9分暫居榜首，緊隨其後的是哈薩克，該隊今日早上僅負日本5:7，之後以46:7擊敗關島及以22:12擊敗中國取得兩連勝，以兩勝一負得7分，並以得分差壓過主隊香港排名次席，香港排第三位。餘下的排名為中國、斯里蘭卡和關島。

Agnieszka Radwanska battled past Petra Kvitova in a thriller to win the BNP Paribas WTA Finals Singapore presented by SC Global. It's the biggest title of her career.

Agnieszka Radwanska edged Petra Kvitova in a thriller to win the BNP Paribas WTA Finals Singapore presented by SC Global - the biggest title of the former World No.2's career.
It was a true underdog story - not only did she leave the US Open three spots out of even qualifying for the event, but after battling just to make it into the field, she was a longshot just to make the final four, having lost her first two round robin matches against Maria Sharapova and Flavia Pennetta.

But a win over Simona Halep in her third round robin match and a little help from Sharapova took her to the semifinals, and she pulled off another surprise there, grinding past Garbiñe Muguruza in three dramatic sets - her first victory over the Spanish WTA Rising Star in five attempts this year.

And then, longtime rival and fellow former No.2 Kvitova in the final - Kvitova was also playing on a new breath of life, going 1-2 in the round robin portion herself before reviving her game and battling her way into the final, pulling off a stunning upset over the red-hot Sharapova in Saturday's semifinals.

Radwanska's biggest titles were Premier Mandatory-level titles at Beijing in 2011 and Miami in 2012. This was her first title at one of the five biggest events on the WTA calendar (the four Grand Slams and the WTA Finals). It's the 17th overall WTA title of her long, successful career.
