• Praise for wing Christian Wade after victory for Wasps
• Dustin Johnson's mistake gives Ian Poulter a chance
Rugby Union: Wade wades in to serve reminder to Lancaster
Wasps director of rugby David Young praised winger Christian Wade after his side ran out 32-30 winners in the Aviva Premiership match at Gloucester. The result means Wasps recorded their first away league win since February as they took a big leap up the table with a bonus-point victory at Kingsholm. Wade scored two tries, while No8 Nathan Hughes and replacement Guy Thompson were also on the scoreboard, with fly-half Andy Goode claiming 12 points with three conversions and two penalties. "Nobody else could have scored that try so we probably owe him a victory there," Young said of Wade. Leicester director of rugby Richard Cockerill slammed his side for their "embarrassing" defensive lapses after they crashed to a 23-16 home defeat by Harlequins, who outscored them two tries to one and also leapfrogged them in the table to go fifth. A furious Cockerill said: "Some of our defence early in the game was embarrassing." Quins' two tries came from Nick Easter and Matt Hopper either side of half-time while Julian Salvi was in the sin-bin. PA
Golf: Poulter has a chance
Dustin Johnson gave the chasing pack some hope with a double-bogey on the last to reduce his lead to three shots after the third round of the WGC-HSBC Champions in Shanghai. Despite also making a double-bogey on the 10th, Johnson stood on the 18th tee with his five-shot overnight lead intact thanks to a front nine of 30 for the second day running and four more birdies in succession from the 13th, eventually signing for a final-hole seven and a third round of 66. At 18 under par, Johnson led by three from the defending champion, Ian Poulter, who carded a 63, with Graeme McDowell a shot further back following a 64. Justin Rose, first-round leader Rory McIlroy and Graham DeLaet were all on 12 under. Martin Kaymer was 10 under after setting a course record with a 62. PA
