The sports world has been abuzz with action-packed events, from the thrill of the Winter Olympics to the excitement of the Premier League and the T20 World Cup. In this roundup, we'll take a look at the latest developments in each of these sporting spheres.
The Winter Olympics, which concluded with a grand closing ceremony, saw the United States take home the gold medal in men's ice hockey, defeating Canada 2-1 in overtime. The Olympics also witnessed a stunning display of curling, a sport that might seem unfamiliar to some, but is steeped in tradition and skill. BBC Sport's Ed Leigh and Tim Warwood, usually commentating on snowboarding events, imagined what it would be like to try their hand at curling commentary.
Meanwhile, in the world of football, Tottenham Hotspur has appointed a new manager, Igor Tudor, who will face a baptism by fire in his first game in charge against Arsenal in the north London derby. BBC Sport's Chris Sutton has made his predictions for the match, but will his forecast come true?
