Happened on this day - 3 July

1902: Bramall Lane in Sheffield became England's seventh Test cricket ground when it staged the third match between England and Australia.

The tourists' Clem Hill scored the only century on the ground, which was not used again for Test cricket.

1905: The world heavyweight title fight between Marvin Hart and Jack Root in Nevada set new ground.

It was the first to have a former champion as a referee - in this case James J Jeffries. The contest was to find his successor and Hart emerged the winner.

1977: Britain's Barry Sheene won the Belgian Grand Prix 500cc race at an average speed of 135.07mph - the fastest ever recorded at a world championship motorcycle race.

1997: Celtic appointed former Dutch international Wim Jansen as their new head coach.

He went on to lead the club to their first Scottish championship title in 10 years in his only season in charge.

2000: Tim Henman's bid to win Wimbledon ended in the fourth round when he was beaten in a five-set thriller by big-serving Australian Mark Philippoussis on Centre Court.
