Cristian Romero left the pitch in tears with a leg injury during Tottenhams clash at Sunderland as relegation-threatened Spurs suffered what could be a hammer blow to their survival hopes.Romero nastily collided with his goalkeeper Antonin Kinsky on the 64th minute, with both men receiving treatment from Tottenhams medical team.There was particular concern for the Czech stopper, who was being checked over for a head injury and concussion. With first-choice goalkeeper Guglielmo Vicario injured, Roberto De Zerbi was facing the prospect of requiring the services of third-choice Brandon Austin in what was his first game as Spurs boss.But after a lengthy delay, it was the Argentine defender who needed to be replaced, with Romero visibly upset as he limped towards the touchline, hampered with an apparent dead leg.Wiping his teary eyes with his shirt, he was replaced by Kevin Danso, while Kinsky was deemed OK to continue.Romeros departure after the captain made a vow to do everything I can to guide Tottenham out of this dark time ahead of the meeting at the Stadium of Light.Thanking the Tottenham fans, he told Sky Sports: "I've been here five seasons. This season was not easy for any of us, but I want to thank them [the Tottenham fans] for always being there, and I want to try to be together more than ever in this dark time, and I will do everything I can to get out of this.The club isn't there because of me, it's the structure, the stadium, the people. Every time we play at the stadium, it's completely full, they follow us everywhere, and I think it deserves to compete at least."I'm not saying win the Premier League, because to say win the title is easy, but at least compete in the top positions of the league, compete in the European competitions."To try and have targets to achieve these things would be great, but the important thing is not focusing on the present, which is not good. Try to get out of this bad situation and try to focus on these two months of the season and do it in the best way possible."He departed the game at a crucial moment, with Spurs not long having fallen behind to a fortuitous deflected strike from Sunderland defender Nordi Mukiele.The goal meant that as things, Tottenham would remain in the bottom three with six games to play after West Ham plunged their London rivals into the drop zone with their 4-0 thrashing of bottom club Wolves.De Zerbi will have just six more games to save Tottenham after penning a five-year contract at the club, replacing ill-fated interim appointment Igor Tudor.

Sergio Garca and Jon Rahm were in the same group for the final round of the Masters, a Spanish duo of former champions that added some spice to the early pairings of players out of contention.

CF Montreal has fired its head coach, Marco Donadel, who held the position for just six months, the club said in a statement posted to its website Sunday morning.

Sergio Garcia broke his driver on No. 2 at Augusta National after an outburst on the tee box, then created a lighter moment later on that same hole when he carried fellow Spaniard Jon Rahm's clubs for a bit Sunday at the Masters.The Garcia-Rahm group, which paired two countrymen and former champions, was always going to create some buzz, even with both out of contention. Then Garcia brought the drama.The 2017 Masters champ looked frustrated on his follow through when his first shot of the day went well to the right. After a bogey on No. 1, Garcia lost it on the second tee box, slamming his club into the turf twice after hitting a shot that ended up in the bunker.Then he took a swipe at a table with a green cooler on it. That left the head of his driver dangling from the shaft, and he reached over and yanked it off completely.Garcia was disqualified in 2019 at the Saudi International for damaging greens in frustration. This time he got control of himself before it got to that point.Later on that same hole, things turned comical when Garcia started carrying Rahm's bag while Rahm's caddie was tending to the bunker. The crowd applauded when Rahm took the bag from Garcia and started carrying it himself as caddie Adam Hayes hustled to catch up to the players.Garcia did manage to make par on No. 2 before bogeying the third and fourth holes.___AP golf: https://apnews.com/hub/golf
