TWO PEOPLE ARE KILLED. WHAT THE ATTACK COULD MEAN FOR HIS SECOND BID FOR THE WHITE HOUSE. CAPTIONS BY REBECCA SCHOLTZ AND JASON CONRAN. CAPTIONS WERE MADE WITH THE SUPPORT OF NZ ON AIR. WWW.ABLE.CO.NZ COPYRIGHT ABLE 2024 TENA TATOU KATOA I TENEI PO. GOOD EVENING. AMERICA AND THE WORLD IS IN SHOCK TONIGHT AFTER FORMER PRESIDENT DONALD TRUMP WAS SHOT WHILE SPEAKING AT A RALLY IN PENNSYLVANIA ` THE ATTACK AND THE FOLLOWING CONFUSION CAPTURED LIVE ON TELEVISION. DONALD TRUMP SAYING HE WAS 'SHOT WITH A BULLET THAT PIERCED THE UPPER PART OF MY RIGHT EAR'. SECRET SERVICE AGENTS RUSHED HIM OFF STAGE WITH BLOOD ON HIS FACE AS HE DEFIANTLY RAISED HIS FIST. THE MALE SHOOTER KILLED A SPECATOR AT THE RALLY AND INJURED TWO OTHERS BEFORE HE WAS SHOT DEAD BY AGENTS. THE DRAMATIC INCIDENT AND IMAGES FROM THE ATTACK NOW LIKELY TO HAVE A BIG INFLUENCE ON NOVEMBER'S PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION. WE'VE EXTENSIVE COVERAGE. U.S CORRESPONDENT LOGAN CHURCH STANDING BY FOR THE VERY LATEST. FIRST, HOW IT ALL UNFOLDED. THE SHOTS CAME THICK AND FAST. TAKE A LOOK WHAT HAPPENED... (GUNSHOTS POP) HIS EAR IS GRAZED AS HE HITS THE GROUND... (GUNSHOTS POP) ...AS ANOTHER VOLLEY OF SHOTS IS FIRED FROM UP HIGH. THE SECRET SERVICE RUSH ON STAGE. (CROWD CLAMOURS) (GUNSHOT POPS, WOMAN SCREAMS) DONALD TRUMP'S BLEEDING, STILL ON THE GROUND. HIS SUPPORTERS CONFUSED AND FRIGHTENED AS THE SECRET SERVICE GETS READY TO GET HIM OUT. HOLD, HOLD! WHEN YOU'RE READY. ON YOU. READY. MOVE! MOVE! GO. ARE WE GOOD? SHOOTER'S DOWN. ARE WE GOOD TO MOVE? WE'RE CLEAR. LET ME GET MY SHOES. SIR, WE GOTTA GET YOU... LET ME GET MY SHOES! THERE'S A SHOW OF DEFIANCE AND THAT HE'S ALRIGHT. ONE MINUTE AND 23 SECONDS AFTER THOSE FIRST SHOTS... (CROWD CHEERS) ...HE IS WALKED OFF THE STAGE. IT'S PHOTOS THAT BETTER SHOW HOW HE WAS HURT AND HOW LUCKY HE WAS. TRUMP SAYS HE IMMEDIATELY KNEW SOMETHING WAS WRONG ` THAT HE HEARD 'A WHIZZING SOUND', THEN THE SHOTS. THIS EVENING WE HAD WHAT WE'RE CALLING AN ASSASSINATION ATTEMPT AGAINST OUR FORMER PRESIDENT DONALD TRUMP. IT'S STILL AN ACTIVE CRIME SCENE. AGENTS QUICKLY BUNDLED TRUMP INTO A WAITING CAR... (SIRENS WAIL) ...AND THEN, IN A SPRAWLING, RACING MOTORCADE, RUSHED FOR MEDICAL ATTENTION. BACK AT THE RALLY, THE SECRET SERVICE HAD KILLED THE GUNMAN, BUT SOMEONE IN THE CROWD WAS ALSO DEAD, TWO OTHERS CRITICALLY HURT. HE HAD A HEADSHOT HERE. THERE WAS LOTS OF BLOOD. UM, I'M AT A TRUMP RALLY, AND SOMEONE JUST STARTED SHOOTING. WHAT'S JUST HAPPENED? JUST` JUST A SAD DAY FOR AMERICA. THANKS FOR COMING, FOLKS. TRUMP'S WHITE HOUSE RIVAL SAYS THE SAME. APPARENTLY HE'S DOING WELL. I PLAN ON TALKING TO HIM SHORTLY, I HOPE, WHEN I GET BACK TO THE TELEPHONE. LOOK, THERE'S NO PLACE IN AMERICA FOR THIS KIND OF VIOLENCE. IT'S SICK. IT'S SICK. THE FORMER PRESIDENT WAS SOON ABLE TO LEAVE THE HOSPITAL, AND HE SOON TOOK TO SOCIAL MEDIA, SAYING IT'S INCREDIBLE SUCH AN ACT CAN HAPPEN, AND THAT HE FELT THE BULLET RIPPING THROUGH HIS SKIN ` BULLETS THOUGHT TO HAVE BEEN FIRED FROM HERE. THIS IS AFTER THE SECRET SERVICE, IT APPEARS, HAS ALREADY SHOT AND KILLED THIS PERSON. OFFICERS TAKING AWAY A SEMI-AUTOMATIC-STYLE RIFLE. A CHAOTIC SCENE. LAW ENFORCEMENT, I BELIEVE, ACTED HEROICALLY. TAKE A LOOK WHAT HAPPENED... (GUNSHOTS POP) THERE'S BOTH SHOCK AND RELIEF ACROSS NORMALLY BITTER PARTY LINES, AND QUESTIONS WITH NO ANSWERS YET. THERE'S ALSO A SHARP JOLT IN THE RACE FOR THE WHITE HOUSE. POLITICAL VIOLENCE ` AGAIN ` IS SHAKING AMERICA. AND LOGAN'S WITH US NOW LIVE FROM PHILADELPHIA, PENNSYLVANIA. WHAT'S THE LATEST, LOGAN? THE LAST HALF HOUR, THE FBI HAVE NAMED 2080 ROLLED THOMAS COOK'S AS THE GUNMAN. HE IS FROM PENNSYLVANIA. HIS MOTIVE IS NOT CLEAR YET. AS WE SPEAK, IF EA AGENTS WILL BE TALKING TO KNOWN ASSOCIATES TO FIND OUT WHAT IS BEHIND THIS ATTACK. THIS WILL BE DONE WITH URGENCY AND WILL HAVE A LOT OF RESOURCES THROWN AT IT, BECAUSE WE ARE NOT JUST TALKING ABOUT THE ATTEMPTED ASSASSINATION OF A FORMER PRESIDENT, BUT OF A LEADING PRESIDENTIAL CANDIDATE GOING INTO THE ELECTION THIS NOVEMBER. THE SUSPECT HAS SOME SKILL WITH A FIREARM. HUNDRED AND 20 M AWAY FROM WHERE THE PRESIDENT WAS STANDING. IT HAS BEEN LONG FEARED THAT POLITICAL VIOLENCE WOULD ERUPT IN THIS COUNTRY, AND HERE IT IS. JOE BIDEN HAS RETURNED TO THE WHITE HOUSE. THE PHONE CALL HE HOPES TO HAVE HAPPENED ACCORDING TO HIS ADMINISTRATION. EVERYONE HERE ON BOTH SIDES OF THE POLITICAL AISLE ARE CONDEMNING THIS ATTACK, NOT JUST WITH CONCERN FOR THOSE AFFECTED, BUT THE REAL FEAR OF THIS ESCALATING FURTHER. LOGAN, HAVE WE HEARD ANY MORE FROM DONALD TRUMP? WE ACTUALLY SAW DONALD TRUMP WALKING OFF OF HIS PLANE. HE WAS ABLE TO WALK UNATTENDED AND SEEMED FOR ALL INTENTS AND PURPOSES OK. HE WAVED AS HE WALKED BY. ONE CONCERN WILL BE HOW HIS DIEHARD SUPPORTERS WILL REACT TO THIS. AS THE FORMER PRESIDENT WAS DRAGGED OFF STAGE, IT HAS BEEN REPORTED THAT HE MOUTHED FIGHT FIGHT FIGHT. THAT EVOKES WORRYING IMAGERY ABOUT WHAT HAPPENED AFTER THE LAST ELECTION, ON JANUARY 6 IN THE CAPITAL. THIS IS NOT ONLY A VERY DARK DAY FOR AMERICA BUT A VERY FRIGHTENING ONE. YOU'RE GOING TO STAY WITH US, LOGAN, AND WE'LL COME BACK TO YOU SHORTLY. LET'S HEAD NOW TO MILWAUKEE IN THE STATE OF WISCONSIN, WHERE TRUMP IS SET TO BE OFFICIALLY DECLARED THE REPUBLICAN PRESIDENTIAL NOMINEE AT A PARTY CONVENTION THIS WEEK. CNN'S JULIA BENBROOK IS THERE FOR US. JULIA, THIS WAS ALREADY GOING TO BE AN INTENSE GATHERING. WHAT'S IT GOING TO LOOK LIKE NOW? THIS RALLY WHERE THE SHOOTING HAPPENED WAS ONE OF TRUMPS FINAL BIG CAMPAIGN MOMENTS BEFORE COMING HERE TO MILWAUKEE TO ACCEPT THE NOMINATION. HE IS NOT ONLY A FORMER PRESIDENT, BUT THE PRESUMPTIVE REPUBLICAN NOMINEE AND STAYS AWAY FROM BEING A VISUAL. HIS TEAM HAS MADE IT CLEAR THAT HE PLANS TO BE HERE. THEY RELEASED A STATEMENT SAYING AS WAS COMMUNICATED EARLIER, HE IS DOING WELL AND IS GRATEFUL TO LAW INVOLVEMENT AND FIRST RESPONDERS FOR THEIR FAST ACTION. HE LOOKS FORWARD TO JOINING YOU ALL IN MILWAUKEE AS WE PROCEED WITH OUR CONVENTION TO NOMINATE HIM. AS A PARTY'S NOMINEE, HE WILL CONTINUE TO SHARE HIS VISION TO MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN. MAKING IT CLEAR HE PLANS TO BE HERE. WE ARE DAYS AWAY. HE WILL NOT BE THE ONLY BIG-NAME. POTENTIAL VP PICKS AND OTHER REPUBLICAN LEADERS. AND JULIA, TALK US BRIEFLY THROUGH WHAT'S MEANT TO HAPPEN AT THIS CONVENTION. WHAT'S IT FOR? IT'S A BIG WEEK OF SUPPORT THE REPUBLICAN PARTY, AND THE MAIN EVENT IS TO SEE THE NOMINEE SPEAK ON THURSDAY AND ACCEPT THE FORMAL NOMINATION. THAT IS WHAT WE WILL SEE TRUMP DO NEXT WEEK. SOME OTHER BIG ITEMS WILL HAPPEN AS WELL. SOME OF TRUMPS CHILDREN ARE ACCEPTED TO SPEAK AND CELEBRITIES, OTHER LAWMAKERS. THE BIG TICKET ITEM THAT WE WOULD HAVE HEARD OF TONIGHT, IS HIS VP PICK. HE HAS FLOATED SEVERAL NAMES. SOMETIME NEXT WEEK, WE EXPECT TO HEAR WHO IT WILL BE. HIS TEAM AT ONE POINT SAID MONDAY WITH THE DEADLINE. THANKS. CNN'S JULIA BENBROOK IN MILWAUKEE. MEMBERS ALREADY GATHERED AT THE CONVENTION IN MILWAUKEE REACTING TO TODAY'S NEWS. MY HEART DROPPED. THIS IS GONNA BE AN EXCITING WEEK. WE HAVE SO MUCH GOING IN THE RIGHT DIRECTION FOR OUR COUNTRY. THIS IS NOT SOMETHING THAT THIS COUNTRY NEEDS. THAT OPPOSING POLITICAL VIEWS ARE SO CONTENTIOUS THAT PEOPLE CAN'T STAND THE THOUGHT OF SOMEONE ELSE'S POLITICAL VIEWS TO THE POINT WHERE THEY WOULD TAKE ACTION TO MAKE AN ATTEMPT AT A CANDIDATE'S LIFE, IT'S HORRIBLE. WHAT'S GOING ON IN AMERICA RIGHT NOW IS OBVIOUSLY VERY SAD. OBVIOUSLY, THEY WERE TRYING TO DO SOMETHING TO TAKE DONALD TRUMP DOWN, BUT THE PEOPLE WILL PREVAIL, JUSTICE WILL BE SERVED AND TRUMP WILL BE BACK IN 2024. AN EYE WITNESS TOLD THE BBC HE SAW THE GUNMAN BEFORE ANY BULLETS WERE FIRED, DESCRIBING THE MINUTES IN THE LEAD-UP TO THE SHOOTING. WE NOTICED A GUY CRAWLING.... ARMY, YOU KNOW, BEAR CRAWLING UP THE ROOF OF THE BUILDING BESIDE US, 50, 50 FEET AWAY FROM US. SO WE'RE STANDING THERE, YOU KNOW, WE'RE POINTING. WE'RE POINTING AT THE GUY CRAWLING UP THE ROOF. AND HE HAD A GUN, RIGHT? HE HAD A RIFLE. A RIFLE. WE COULD CLEARLY SEE HIM WITH A RIFLE. ABSOLUTELY. WE'RE POINTING AT HIM. THE POLICE ARE DOWN THERE RUNNING AROUND ON THE GROUND. WE'RE LIKE, 'HEY, MAN, THERE'S A GUY ON THE ROOF WITH A RIFLE.' AND THE POLICE WERE LIKE, 'HUH? WHAT?' YOU KNOW? LIKE, THEY DIDN'T KNOW WHAT WAS GOING ON. YOU KNOW, WE'RE LIKE, 'HEY, RIGHT HERE ON THE ROOF. 'WE CAN SEE HIM FROM RIGHT HERE. WE SEE HIM, YOU KNOW. HE'S CRAWLING.' AND NEXT THING YOU KNOW, I'M LIKE, I'M THINKING TO MYSELF, I'M LIKE, WHY IS TRUMP STILL SPEAKING? WHY HAVE THEY NOT PULLED HIM OFF THE STAGE? I'M STANDING THERE POINTING AT HIM FOR, YOU KNOW, TWO OR THREE MINUTES. SECRET SERVICE IS LOOKING AT US FROM THE TOP OF THE BARN. I'M POINTING AT THAT ROOF JUST STANDING THERE LIKE THIS, AND NEXT THING YOU KNOW, FIVE SHOTS RANG OUT. YOU'RE CERTAIN THAT THE SHOTS CAME FROM THAT GUY ON THE ROOF? 100%. 100%. AND HE WAS UP THERE FOR A COUPLE OF MINUTES. YOU SAW HIM UP THERE FOR A COUPLE OF MINUTES. ABSOLUTELY. AT LEAST 3-4 MINUTES. AND YOU WERE TELLING POLICE AND THE SECRET SERVICE. YEP. WE WERE TELLING THE POLICE, WE WERE POINTING AT HIM FOR THE SECRET SERVICE, WHO WERE LOOKING AT US FROM THE TOP OF THE BARN. THEY WERE LOOKING AT US THE WHOLE TIME WHEN WE WERE STANDING BY THAT TREE. BINOCULARS... COULD THEY SEE HIM? PROBABLY NOT, BECAUSE THE ROOF, THE WAY THE SLOPE WENT, HE WAS BEHIND WHERE THEY COULD SEE. BUT WHY IS THERE NOT SECRET SERVICE ON ALL OF THESE ROOFS HERE? TO GIVE YOU A BETTER PERSPECTIVE OF THE SHOOTING SCENE, TAKE A LOOK AT THIS. AERIAL PICTURES SHOW THE STAGE THERE IN RED WHERE TRUMP WAS GIVING HIS SPEECH WITH THOSE GRANDSTANDS AROUND IT. WE'VE MARKED THAT LOCATION ON THE MAP HERE. THE SHOOTER FOUND ON THE ROOF OF A STRUCTURE 137m AWAY. SECRET SERVICE SNIPERS WERE LOCATED ON THE ROOF OF A BUILDING BEHIND THE STAGE. WORLD LEADERS ARE UNITED IN THEIR REACTION, WITH CHRISTOPHER LUXON JOINING A CHORUS OF PRIME MINISTERS ALL STATING THERE'S NO PLACE FOR VIOLENCE IN THE DEMOCRATIC PROCESS. CANADIAN PRIME MINISTER JUSTIN TRUDEAU SAYS HE FEELS SICKENED BY WHAT HAPPENED AND HIS THOUGHTS ARE WITH THE FORMER PRESIDENT AND ALL AMERICANS. A SIMILAR SENTIMENT ECHOED BY OUR ACTING PRIME MINISTER TODAY. YOU SHOULD BE CONTENDING WITH THE DESIRES AND HOPES OF THE VOTERS AND, UH, THE ARGUMENTS OF YOUR OPPONENTS, NOT BULLETS. THERE'S CLEARLY BEEN AN INCREASE, UH, IN POLITICAL INTIMIDATION AND RHETORIC. YOU SAW THAT IN OUR LAST ELECTION. YOU SEE IT FROM TIME TO TIME NOW. UH, BUT I THINK AN EVENT LIKE THIS JUST REMINDS US TO RECOMMIT OURSELVES, UH, TO OPEN DEBATES, UH, POLITICAL PERSUASION THAT IS PEACEFUL. DAVID SEYMOUR SAYS HE'S CONFIDENT THE UNITED STATES WILL OVERCOME THIS INCIDENT. QUESTIONS NOW BEING ASKED ABOUT WHAT THIS LEVEL OF VIOLENCE COULD MEAN FOR THE FUTURE OF AMERICAN POLITICS. IN THE PAST, PRESIDENTIAL ASSASSINATIONS HAVE NOT ONLY ROCKED THE NATION BUT ALSO LED TO SOCIETAL CHANGE. CORAZON MILLER REPORTS. (GUNSHOTS POP) MOMENTS LIKE THESE HAVE CHANGED THE COURSE OF AMERICAN HISTORY. THE KILLING OF ITS 25th PRESIDENT, WILLIAM MCKINLEY, LED TO THE CREATION OF AMERICA'S MODERN DAY SECRET SERVICE. ALONGSIDE TACKLING FINANCIAL CRIME, IT'S TODAY CHARGED WITH PROTECTING NOT JUST THE PRESIDENT, BUT FORMER PRESIDENTS, AMONG OTHER IMPORTANT CITIZENS. UNITED STATES HAS BEEN CHARACTERISED BY POLITICAL ASSASSINATIONS IN THE PAST. THE LAST ATTEMPTED ASSASSINATION, UH, WAS 1981... (GUNSHOTS) ...WHEN PRESIDENT REAGAN, UH, WAS PRESIDENT. IN TOTAL, FOUR SITTING PRESIDENTS HAVE BEEN KILLED WHILE IN OFFICE, STARTING WITH ABRAHAM LINCOLN IN 1865, JAMES A. GARFIELD IN 1881, WILLIAM MCKINLEY IN 1901 AND JOHN F. KENNEDY IN 1963. SOMETHING HAS HAPPENED IN THE MOTORCADE. SYMPATHY AT KENNEDY'S DEATH HELPED USHER IN THE CIVIL RIGHTS MOVEMENT, WHICH PUSHED THROUGH LAWS THAT HELPED END RACIAL SEGREGATION. THE FINAL CHAPTER IN AN EVENT THAT WOULD CHANGE THE LANDSCAPE OF AMERICA. POLITICAL ANALYSTS UNCERTAIN WHAT HAPPENED HERE WILL LEAD TO THE CHANGES MANY IN AMERICA ARE CALLING FOR. YOU KNOW, A GOOD OUTCOME OF THIS WOULD BE A FINAL REALISATION THAT GUN VIOLENCE, WHICH PLAGUES MANY AMERICANS' LIVES, CAN HIT THE HIGHEST-LEVEL PEOPLE, AND IT'S EVERYONE'S INTEREST TO GET GUN CONTROL IN PLACE. BUT I DON'T THINK THAT'S GONNA BE THE OUTCOME. TRUMP'S NOW THOUGHT TO BE THE SECOND FORMER U.S. PRESIDENT WHO'S HAD AN ATTEMPT ON HIS LIFE. THE FIRST WAS THEODORE ROOSEVELT IN 1912. HE WAS RUNNING FOR A THIRD TERM IN OFFICE. HE SURVIVED, THANKS TO HIS STEEL GLASSES CASE AND 50-PAGE SPEECH WHICH SHIELDED HIS VITAL ORGANS. SECURITY FORCES IN THE UNITED STATES NOW ON HIGH ALERT AS THE INVESTIGATION INTO WHAT HAPPENED HERE CONTINUES. I WANNA THANK THE SECRET SERVICE AND ALL THE AGENCIES, INCLUDING THE STATE AGENCIES. AS FOR WHAT THIS SHOOTING MEANS FOR THE STATE OF U.S. POLITICS... AT THE MOMENT, IT'S DIFFICULT TO BE OPTIMISTIC ABOUT WHETHER VIOLENCE CAN BE AVOIDED IN THIS REALLY HIGH-PRESSURE PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION, WHERE SO MUCH IS AT STAKE. ...HOPING AGAINST THE ODDS THAT COME WHAT MAY IN NOVEMBER, WE DON'T SEE ANOTHER REPEAT OF THIS. CORAZON MILLER, 1 NEWS. LET'S TAKE ANOTHER LOOK NOW AT HOW THE INCIDENT UNFOLDED. TAKE A LOOK WHAT HAPPENED... (GUNSHOTS POP) GET DOWN, GET DOWN, GET DOWN, GET DOWN! (SCREAMING, GUNSHOTS POP) MULTIPLE SHOTS RING OUT. EVERYONE DUCKS FOR COVER. SECRET SERVICE OFFICERS RUSH IN, COVERING THE FORMER PRESIDENT. REMEMBER, ALL OF THIS PLAYING LIVE ON TELEVISION, CAPTURING THE CONFUSION AMONG THE CROWD. LET ME GET MY SHOES. SIR, WE GOTTA MOVE. CAPTURING THE CONFUSION AMONG THE CROWD. LET ME GET MY SHOES. SIR, WE GOTTA MOVE. LET ME GET MY SHOES. (CROWD SHOUTS, CLAMOURS) YOU CAN SEE SUITED AGENTS TOTALLY SURROUND TRUMP, SHIELDING HIM FROM VIEW, AND TRYING TO MOVE HIM OFF STAGE, BUT TRUMP BREAKS FREE OF THEIR DEFENCE, DEFIANTLY PUMPING HIS FIST, CHANTING, 'FIGHT, FIGHT,' SPARKING CHEERS AND FIST PUMPS FROM THE CROWD. WE'RE BACK TO LOGAN IN PENNSYLVANIA NOW. LOGAN, YOU'VE BEEN TO A TRUMP RALLY RECENTLY. SECURITY IS PRETTY TIGHT, RIGHT? HOW COULD THIS HAPPEN? SECURITY IS INTENSE. I WAS AT A RALLY A FEW KILOMETRES UP FROM WHERE I AM NOW, AND THE SECRET SERVICE AS WELL AS LOCAL LAW ENFORCEMENT HAD BLOCKED OFF NOT ONLY STREETS AROUND THE VENUE BUT ALSO WALKWAYS WITH TALL FENCING. THERE WERE ARMED POLICE EVERYWHERE. YOU HAD TO GO THROUGH INCREDIBLY INTENSE, ALMOST AIRPORT LEVEL SECURITY. I HAD A GOLF BALL IN MY BAG AT THAT SECRET SERVICE AGENTS, CONFISCATED. THEY WERE CONCERNED ABOUT ANY THREAT. IT IS THE BOMB SWEEPS BEFOREHAND, SWAT SNIPER POSITIONS ON THE ROOF. A LOT OF MANPOWER GOES INTO MAKING THESE RALLIES SAFE. THERE ARE ALREADY CALLS FOR HEARINGS FOR THOSE IN CHARGE OF THE SECRET SERVICE. ARGUABLY SOME OF THE BEST IN THE BUSINESS, BUT THE FACT THAT A BULLET WAS ABLE TO GET SO CLOSE TO TRUMP SPACE FACE THAT IT GRAZED HIM, THAT IS SO CLOSE TO DISASTER. WERE ALSO RIGHT IN THE MIDDLE OF AN ELECTION, AND DONALD TRUMP LOVES HOLDING RALLIES. HE WILL WANT TO CONTINUE, BUT LIKELY SECURITY WILL BE RAMPED UP SIGNIFICANTLY AFTER THE EVENTS TODAY. THOSE WILL PROBABLY BE LOOKING QUITE DIFFERENT OVER THE WEEKS AND MONTHS TO COME. AND WE'LL HAVE EXTENSIVE COVERAGE OF THE SHOOTING ON BREAKFAST TOMORROW FROM 6am. AND YOU CAN GET ALL THE LATEST UPDATES ON OUR WEBSITE, 1NEWS.CO.NZ, WHICH HAS PLENTY MORE ON THE ASSASSINATION ATTEMPT. A MURI AKE NEI. NEXT ON 1 NEWS ` HOW DRUG DEALERS ARE LAUNDERING HUNDREDS OF MILLIONS OF DOLLARS, A 1 NEWS EXCLUSIVE AMID CONCERNS CHINA IS SIMPLY TURNING A BLIND EYE TO WHAT'S HAPPENING. PLUS NINETY PEOPLE KILLED INSIDE ONE OF GAZA'S SAFE ZONES CASHED-UP NEW ZEALAND CRIMINALS ARE INCREASINGLY TURNING TO SOPHISTICATED CHINESE EXPERTS TO LAUNDER THEIR DRUG MONEY. IT'S ESTIMATED TO BE IN THE REGION OF $1.3B, LARGELY OFF THE SALE OF METH AND OTHER RECREATIONAL DRUGS. AS YVONNE TAHANA REPORTS, THERE'S CONCERN BEIJING IS TURNING A BLIND EYE TO THE PRACTICE. AN ECONOMIC SUPERPOWER, BUT ALSO INCREASINGLY A MAGNET FOR MONEY-LAUNDERERS AROUND THE WORLD. THE PATTERN IS THAT, REGARDLESS OF THE DRUG OR THE MARKET, THAT THERE'S A CHINA FACTOR NOW. IN THE LAST FEW YEARS, NEW ZEALAND POLICE HAVE IDENTIFIED CHINESE CONNECTIONS IN ALL OF THEIR BIG MONEY LAUNDERING INVESTIGATIONS. UNREGULATED REMITTERS, WORKING WITHIN THE CHINESE COMMUNITY, THAT ARE PROVIDING THE SERVICE. OUR MOST NOTORIOUS, KATHY HUA, MOVED MORE THAN $26m OF METH MONEY, $11 MILLION OF THAT LANDING IN CHINA. WE WORK CLOSELY WITH OUR CHINESE COLLEAGUES EVEN NOW, TRYING TO CLAW BACK THAT MONEY FROM ACCOUNTS IN CHINA. ONE OF THE MOST ADVANCED OPERATIONS IN THE WORLD WAS RUN BY THIS MAN, XIZHI LI. WORKING ACROSS THE U.S.-MEXICO BORDER, THE SPANISH AND MANDARIN-SPEAKING LI LAUNDERED $30m FOR CARTELS BY USING A PIONEERING CURRENCY EXCHANGE METHOD KNOWN AS MIRRORING, CHARGING MEXICAN DRUG KINGPINS A 1%-2% MARGIN FOR TAKING THEIR DIRTY U.S. DOLLARS, EARNED ON AMERICAN STREETS, AND THEN GIVING THEM THE EQUIVALENT IN PESOS FROM MONEY STORED IN HIS HOUSES IN MEXICO. AT THE SAME TIME, HE TAKES THOSE U.S. DOLLARS AND SELLS THEM TO CHINESE ELITE WHO WANT TO GET MONEY OUT OF CHINA AND ARE WILLING TO PAY A MUCH HIGHER COMMISSION, AROUND 17% FOR THE SAME SERVICE. AND THE $30 MILLION YOU MENTIONED IS WHAT THEY WERE ABLE TO PROVE FOR THE PURPOSES OF CONVICTING HIM. IF YOU DO GO DEEP INTO THE CASE FILE, AS WE HAVE, THEY'RE TALKING ABOUT HUNDREDS OF MILLIONS. CHINA'S CAPITAL FLIGHT RULES BAN MORE THAN US$50k LEAVING THE COUNTRY, AND EXPERTS AGREE THIS CREATES THE PROBLEM. STILL, SINCE 2006, TRILLIONS HAVE FLOWED OUT OF CHINA WITH NEW ZEALAND PART OF THAT PICTURE. WHAT'S REALLY ATTRACTIVE FOR A DRUG DEALER IS IF THEY CAN FIND A SERVICE PROVIDER, LIKE CATHAY HUA, WILLING TO CIRCUMVENT CONTROLS. THAT'S GOLD FOR ORGANISED CRIME. THE EXPERTS BELIEVE BEIJING ISN'T IN A HURRY TO CRACK DOWN. THE REASON THE CHINESE GOVERNMENT LETS IT HAPPEN IS BECAUSE A LOT OF MONEY IS FLOWING BACK INTO CHINA. AN ECONOMIC MONEY-GO-ROUND NOT SET TO LET UP. YVONNE TAHANA, 1 NEWS. THERE'S LIKELY TO BE FRESH INTERNATIONAL SCRUTINY OF THE CIVILIAN TOLL OF ISRAEL'S ATTEMPTS TO ELIMINATE HAMAS. A STRIKE AIMED AT TWO HAMAS LEADERS HAS KILLED MORE THAN 90 PALESTINIANS AND INJURED HUNDREDS MORE, ACCORDING TO THE HEALTH MINISTRY IN GAZA. THE ATTACKS HIT THE AL MAWASI AREA, ON THE OUTSKIRTS OF THE CITY OF KHAN YOUNIS. IT'S A DESIGNATED SAFE ZONE, WHERE CIVILIANS ARE TOLD TO GO TO ESCAPE THE FIGHTING. THIS IS WHAT A SAFE ZONE LOOKS LIKE IN GAZA. AL MAWASI` NOW THE SCENE OF ONE OF THE WAR'S DEADLIEST ATTACKS. (SPEAKS ARABIC) TRANSLATOR: ARE THESE THE HUMANITARIAN AREAS THAT NETANYAHU TALKS ABOUT? THERE ARE NO HUMANITARIAN AREAS OR SAFE AREAS. TRANSLATOR: THE FIRST MISSILES WERE FIRED LIKE RAIN TOWARDS US, THEN A MINUTE BETWEEN EACH MISSILE. THEY FIRE TOO MANY MISSILES TOWARDS THE PEOPLE. THE AFTERMATH SHOWING THE INTENSITY OF THE ATTACKS AND THE NEARBY HOSPITAL OVERWHELMED WITH VICTIMS OF THE BLASTS. (SPEAKS ARABIC) TRANSLATOR: THE SITUATION IS AS EVERYONE CAN SEE. I CAN'T GIVE AN ACCURATE NUMBER NOW, BUT DOZENS OF MARTYRS, VICTIMS. CHILDREN, WOMEN, AND MORE THAN 100 INJURED ARRIVED TO THE NASSIR MEDICAL COMPLEX. THIS IS ONE OF THE MEN THE ATTACK WAS TARGETING, MOHAMMED DEIF, ONE OF THE ALLEGED MASTERMINDS OF THE OCTOBER 7TH ATTACKS, WHICH KILLED AROUND 1200 ISRAELIS AND TOOK HUNDREDS HOSTAGE. ISRAELI PRIME MINISTER BENJAMIN NETANYAHU SAYS HE APPROVED THE STRIKE AFTER BEING ASSURED NO ISRAELI HOSTAGES WERE NEARBY, BUT ADMITS IT'S UNCLEAR IF IT ACTUALLY HIT ITS TARGETS. (SPEAKS HEBREW) TRANSLATOR: THERE IS STILL NO ABSOLUTE CERTAINTY THAT THE TWO HAVE BEEN ELIMINATED. BUT I WANT TO ASSURE YOU THAT, ONE WAY OR ANOTHER, WE WILL REACH THE TOP OF HAMAS. HAMAS OFFICIALS DISPUTING ISRAEL'S MOTIVATIONS. (SPEAKS ARABIC) TRANSLATOR: THE OCCUPATION'S ALLEGATIONS THAT IT'S TARGETING PALESTINIAN LEADERS IN THIS BRUTAL RAID AND MASSACRE ARE FALSE AND BASELESS. THE TRUTH IS THAT THESE ALLEGATIONS ARE AN ATTEMPT TO COVER UP THE SCALE OF THE CRIME AND THE SCALE OF THE MASSACRE. JUST HOURS AFTER THE VIOLENCE, THE FUNERALS BEGIN. ADDING MORE NAMES TO A DEATH TOLL WHICH NOW STANDS AT MORE THAN 38,000. TV FITNESS GURU RICHARD SIMMONS, KNOWN FOR HIS ECCENTRIC EXERCISE VIDEOS, HAS DIED AGED 76. IN THE NEXT THREE MINUTES, WE'RE GONNA WORK HARD, WORK OUT, AND GET YOU FIT TO FLY! LET'S GO! THIS AIR NEW ZEALAND SAFETY CLIP AMONG THOUSANDS OF VIDEOS HE STARRED IN AFTER MAKING A NAME FOR HIMSELF IN THE '80s FILMING AEROBIC WORKOUTS. HE ALSO HELD A CLASS HERE IN 2011 TO RAISE MONEY FOR THE CHRISTCHURCH EARTHQUAKES. THE FITNESS PERSONALITY OWNED GYMS, SOLD DIET PLANS AND BECAME A BEST-SELLING AUTHOR. IT'S BEEN REPORTED HE DIED OF NATURAL CAUSES. ME U TONU MAI. A SEISMIC DAY FOR THE U.S. PRESIDENTIAL CAMPAIGN, WITH AN ALLEGED ASSASSINATION ATTEMPT AGAINST DONALD TRUMP. WE'RE LIVE FOR THE LATEST, NEXT. PLUS ` WILL IT BE HELLO OR HOLA TO A NEW EUROS CHAMPION? SUPPORTERS OF ENGLAND AND SPAIN DESCEND ON BERLIN AHEAD OF TOMORROW MORNING'S FINAL. SO, WHO ARE THE BOOKIES BACKING? AND CAN WE SQUEEZE OUT ANOTHER GOOD DAY TOMORROW? WET AND WINDY CONDITIONS THE MANY TOMORROW. LET'S RETURN TO TODAY'S TOP STORY ` THE SHOOTING AT A DONALD TRUMP RALLY WHICH LEFT THE FORMER PRESIDENT BLEEDING. (GUNSHOTS POP) THE ALLEGED SHOOTER HAS BEEN SHOT DEAD BY LAW ENFORCEMENT AND A PERSON IN THE AUDIENCE AT THE RALLY WAS ALSO KILLED. TWO OTHER PEOPLE WERE CRITICALLY INJURED. THE SHOOTING COMES JUST TWO DAYS BEFORE THE START OF THE REPUBLICAN NATIONAL CONVENTION, WHICH WILL CONFIRM TRUMP AS THE PARTY'S NOMINEE FOR PRESIDENT. LET'S CROSS BACK TO U.S. CORRESPONDENT LOGAN CHURCH NOW. LOGAN, HOW COULD THIS AFFECT THE ELECTION? WE ARE REALLY AND UNC HARTERED TERRITORY NOW. THINGS WERE TENSE IN THIS COUNTRY, IT'S BEEN DIALLED UP TO 100 NOW. DONALD DOES BEST WHEN HE HAS HUNDREDS OF SUPPORTERS AND UNSCRIPTED SPEECHES. THAT'S GOING TO HAVE TO CHANGE FOR HIM NOW. HE IS GOING TO HAVE RALLIES, BUT HOW HE MANAGES THEM WILL HAVE TO CHANGE. NOT ONLY WILL SECRET SERVICE HAVE CONCERNS ABOUT BIDEN SECURITY HIS ADMINISTRATION WILL NOW BE OVERSEEING ONE OF THE BIGGEST INVESTIGATIONS THIS COUNTRY HAS SEEN FOR SOME TIME. PEOPLE JUST DON'T KNOW IF THERE'S GOING TO BE MORE OF THIS VIOLENCE. THEY DON'T KNOW IF THINGS WILL GET WORSE. THANKS. U.S. CORRESPONDENT LOGAN CHURCH. FAMILIES ARE CALLING FOR MORE FLEXIBLE DISABILITY FUNDING AMID AN ONGOING REVIEW INTO THE SYSTEM. THE CURRENT MODEL INCLUDES AN INDIVIDUALISED APPROACH, WHICH HAS BEEN IN PLACE FOR 20 YEARS. AND, AS LAURA JAMES REPORTS, THERE'S SUPPORT FOR THAT TO REMAIN. WE GONNA GO FAST THIS TIME. LIKE ANY 8-YEAR-OLD, EMMA BLOXHAM LOVES TO PLAY. SHE DOESN'T MISS A BEAT. SHE'S SO NOSY, SHE'S SO CURIOUS. AND SHE IS SUCH A SMART LITTLE GIRL. BUT BORN WITH A BRAIN DISORDER, SHE'S DEFYING THE PROGNOSIS DOCTORS GAVE, LARGELY THANKS TO HER MUM'S DETERMINATION. THAT'S IT! THEY PRETTY MUCH WROTE HER OFF. THEY SAID SHE WON'T, YOU KNOW, SHE WON'T CRAWL, SHE WON'T TALK, SHE WON'T WALK. I TOOK MY CHILD AND I SAID WATCH ME PROVE YOU WRONG. AND LOOK AT HER NOW. SHE'S SITTING UP, CRAWLING, SHE CAN WALK WITH A BIT OF ASSISTANCE. THE FAMILY, WHO LIVE ON A FARM IN BALCLUTHA, GET INDIVIDUALISED DISABILITY FUNDING FROM THE GOVERNMENT. IT MEANS CINDY CAN BE PAID AS EMMA'S FULL-TIME THERAPIST. SHE'S MY BOSS, REALLY. (LAUGHS) IT'S NO WONDER SHE SO BOSSY. 100 SIT-UPS PER SESSION. ONE. (GRUNTS) COME ON. BEFORE I STARTED THERAPY, NEUROLOGICALLY, EMMA WAS A NEWBORN, FOR UP TO MAYBE FIVE YEARS. NEUROLOGICALLY, EMMA'S PROBABLY LIKE A 3�-YEAR-OLD NOW. IT'S JUST GONE TWO DECADES SINCE SELF-DIRECTED FUNDING WAS PILOTED IN NEW ZEALAND. THE SYSTEM GIVES ELIGIBLE DISABLED KIWIS MORE CONTROL OVER THE HELP THEY RECEIVE. IT'S ABOUT HOW WE CAN TAILOR SUPPORT OR HOW THE PERSON CAN TAILOR SUPPORT TO THEMSELVES. BACK IN 2004, THERE WERE FEWER THAN 200 RECIPIENTS. THAT'S GROWN TO MORE THAN 14,500 PEOPLE, COSTING AROUND $335m A YEAR. IF I DIDN'T HAVE THIS FUNDING SUPPORT, SHE WOULDN'T BE WHERE SHE IS NOW. BUT HOW THE SERVICE WORKS IS BEING INDEPENDENTLY REVIEWED RIGHT NOW, AFTER THE UPSET CAUSED BY UNEXPECTED RULE CHANGES EARLIER THIS YEAR. IT CAUSED CONCERN AND CONFUSION AND SOMETIMES DISTRESS BECAUSE IT CHANGED EVERYTHING. WE CAN USE OUR FUNDING FOR A LOT LESS, UNFORTUNATELY. THE REVIEW'S SET TO BE COMPLETED IN SEPTEMBER, BUT AN INITIAL REPORTS JUST WEEKS AWAY. CINDY'S WISH IS SIMPLE. IF A FAMILY WANTS TO USE THEIR FUNDING FOR THERAPY TO HELP THEIR CHILD, YOU KNOW, THAT SHOULD BE ENCOURAGED. NOT LOTS OF NO'S AND ROADBLOCKS LEADING TO IT. BECAUSE SHE HAS BIG DREAMS FOR HER DAUGHTER. THIS MIGHT SOUND CRAZY, BUT I JUST KNOW SHE'S GONNA MAKE A FULL RECOVERY. SAYING ONE DAY SHE'LL BE AN INSPIRATION TO MANY OTHER CHILDREN LIKE HER. GOOD GIRL. SOME MIGHT SAY SHE ALREADY IS. LAURA JAMES, 1 NEWS. ANDREW'S HERE WITH SPORT ` AND ANOTHER NAIL-BITER. ANOTHER ALMIGHTY MATCH. A WIN, BUT PLENTY TO WORK ON. BEAUDEN BARRETT WITH US AFTER ANOTHER SPARKLING CAMEO. TEST MATCH FOOTBALL, EH? NEVER IN DOUBT. (CHUCKLES) I'D LIKE TO SAY THAT'S THE CASE. SO, WHAT ARE SOME OF THE ALL BLACKS' CONCERNS? PLUS, THE BLACK FERNS TAKE ON THE AUSSIES IN BRISBANE. A NEW WIMBLEDON CHAMP IS CROWNED. ANOTHER BIG SHOWDOWN TONIGHT. SCOTT MCLAUGHLIN SCORES A BREAKTHROUGH WIN IN THE U.S. AND CAN ENGLAND FINALLY BREAK ITS FOOTBALLING DROUGHT TOMORROW MORNING IN BERLIN? NAU MAI KI NGA KORERO HAKINAKINA O TE WA. WELCOME TO SPORT. AND TONIGHT A SENSE OF DEJA VU. THE ALL BLACKS SNEAKING HOME AGAINST A SUFFOCATING ENGLAND SIDE IN A DRAMATIC TEST MATCH AT EDEN PARK, EXTENDING THAT UNBEATEN STREAK. THE ALL BLACKS HEAD OFF LATER TONIGHT FOR L.A. AND TEST AGAINST FIJI, EXPECTED TO LEAVE A FEW BATTERED AND BRUISED BODIES AT HOME. INTENSITY IN BUCKETS FROM THE FIRST WHISTLE. RUSH DEFENCE AND DESPERATE TACKLING. BUT A DOZEN HANDLING MISTAKES FROM THE ALL BLACKS, AND A FEW LOST LINEOUTS AS WELL. A COUPLE OF POINTS WE TOOK PRESSURE OFF, AND IT'S JUST NOT PART OF OUR DNA. HOWEVER, WHAT IS, IS HANGING ON IN A GAME DECIDED BY JUST A FEW KEY MOMENTS. SOMETIMES TEST MATCHES AIN'T PRETTY, YOU KNOW. YOU JUST GOTTA FIND A WAY. IT WAS ALMOST A CARBON COPY FROM LAST WEEK. AFTER SOAKING UP EARLY PRESSURE, THE ENGLISH WERE FLYING, TAKING A SLIM LEAD INTO THE BREAK. TELE'A, WAITING FOR` OH, THE BRITISH! ABSOLUTELY BRILLIANT. IT TOOK THE ARRIVAL OF OLD HEAD BOWDEN BARRETT AGAIN, AND OTHER BENCH PLAYERS, TO PROVIDE CHANGE AND DIRECTION. HERE'S BARRETT IN SPACE, BOWDEN BARRETT. AND A LOT OF THAT MOMENTUM DIDN'T COME FROM BALL-IN-HAND. IT HAD TO START FROM OUR KICK GAME AND BEING ACCURATE THERE AND INFLUENCING WITH OUR DEFENCE, SO... IT'S THE ARM WRESTLES THAT YOU HAVE TO BE WILLING TO GET INTO AND SLOWLY STAY PATIENT. THE WILY BARRETT EVEN THREW HIMSELF UNDER A MAUL, SAVING A TRY AT THE END OF THE GAME. I WAS COMFORTABLE THAT I HELD THE BALL UP. DON'T ASK ME ABOUT THE OBSTRUCTION RULES. ENGLAND HAD PEPPERED THE ALL BLACKS LATE IN THE MATCH. A CRUCIAL SCRUM PENALTY, IN THE END, HELPING SECURE THE WIN. YEAH, WE TALK ABOUT THOSE LITTLE MOMENTS IN THE GAMES THAT CAN SWING MOMENTUM, AND THE GAME WAS... THERE WERE A LOT OF MOMENTUM SHIFTS. I'D HATE TO SEE YOUR EARS AFTER A HUNDRED TESTS, MATE. YEAH, THEY'RE NOT TOO FLASH. THE DETAIL THAT THEY PUT IN TO SQUEEZE YOU DOWN YOUR OWN END. WE LEARNED SOME LESSONS. WE'RE LUCKY WE... WE WON AND LEARNT, NOT LOST AND LEARNT. ENGLAND UNLUCKY NOT TO WALK AWAY WITH TWO HISTORIC TEST VICTORIES. I'VE BEEN TOLD BY PEOPLE IN THE STREET, ABOUT TEN TIMES A DAY, HOW MUCH WE WERE GOING TO GET BLOWN AWAY AT EDEN PARK. SUNNY CALIFORNIA AND THE OPEN PLAY OF FIJI NOW BECKON RATHER THAN A THIRD ENGLISH TEST. THE ALL BLACKS WON'T MIND THAT AFTER AN ARDUOUS BUT UNBEATEN START TO THE NEW YEAR. IRISH AND SPRINGBOKS FANS MIGHT ALSO BE DISAPPOINTED THERE'S NOT A THIRD MATCH IN THEIR SERIES, AFTER THE IRISH TOPPLED THE WORLD CHAMPIONS WITH A LAST-MINUTE DROPPED GOAL. CIARAN FRAWLEY LANDING THIS LONG-RANGE EFFORT, HIS SECOND DROPPED GOAL OF THE MATCH HELPING IRELAND TO A 25-24 VICTORY IN DURBAN. LOOK, IT'S BRILLIANT, BECAUSE I HAD A BIT OF DISAPPOINTMENT AT THE END OF THE SEASON WITH GAMES TO LOSE. IT WAS A DROPPED GOAL THAT WENT TO THE LEFT, SO IT'S` I LIKED TO SEE THIS ONE GO BETWEEN THE POSTS. THE SERIES BETWEEN THE WORLD'S TOP TWO SIDES DRAWN 1-1. ELSEWHERE, THE JOE SCHMIDT ERA HAS ENJOYED A SUCCESSFUL START, AUSTRALIA BEATING WALES 36-28 TO WIN THEIR SERIES 2-0. AND ARGENTINA BEAT FRANCE 33-25, THEIR FIRST VICTORY OVER THE FRENCH IN EIGHT YEARS. THE BLACK FERNS HAVE MADE IT A SUCCESSFUL WEEKEND FOR NEW ZEALAND RUGBY, RUNNING RAMPANT OVER A HAPLESS AUSTRALIA IN BRISBANE. THE RESULT A FOREGONE CONCLUSION AT HALFTIME, NEW ZEALAND LEADING 29-0. THEY DIDN'T SLOW DOWN AFTER THE BREAK, THANKS TO FOUR TRIES FROM KATELYN VAHA'AKOLO. LOOKING FOR... OH, VAHA'AKOLO! THAT'S OUTSTANDING! A FLAT BALL. HERE'S VAHA'AKOLO, JUST COASTING THROUGH, THE BALL IN TWO HANDS. SHE'LL GO IN UNTOUCHED! THE BLACK FERNS SCORING 10 TRIES IN TOTAL IN A 62-0 WIN. COMING INTO WIMBLEDON, BARBORA KREJCIKOVA HAD ONLY WON THREE SINGLES MATCHES SINCE JANUARY'S AUSTRALIAN OPEN. SHE'S NOW A TWO-TIME GRAND SLAM SINGLES CHAMPION. THE CZECH FENDING OFF ITALY'S JASMINE PAOLINI IN THREE SETS, ACHIEVING SOMETHING HER LATE MENTOR ALSO KNOCKED OFF. KATE WELLS HAS MORE. (CROWD APPLAUDS, CHEERS) TAKING A MOMENT TO THANK SOMEONE WATCHING FROM ABOVE. I MEAN, IT'S UNBELIEVABLE. NOW I'M STANDING HERE AND I` AND... (CROWD APPLAUDS) AND I'M A` I'M A WINNER. CZECH BARBORA KREJCIKOVA STRUGGLING TO COME TO TERMS WITH HER WIMBLEDON VICTORY, BEATING ITALY'S JASMINE PAOLINI IN THREE SETS. IT'S A CZECH FAIRYTALE. (CROWD CHEERS) KREJCIKOVA IS THE WIMBLEDON CHAMPION. KREJCIKOVA AN ESTABLISHED DOUBLES PLAYER, THIS HER 12TH GRAND SLAM TITLE, BUT SECOND IN SINGLES. LIFTING THE VENUS ROSEWATER DISH LIKE HER LATE MENTOR, FELLOW CZECH JANA NOVOTNA, DID IN 1998. JANA WAS THE ONE THAT TOLD ME THAT I HAVE THE POTENTIAL AND THAT I SHOULD DEFINITELY TURN PRO AND JUST TRY TO` TRY TO MAKE IT. AND I MEAN, BEFORE SHE PASSED AWAY, SHE TOLD ME TO GO AND WIN THE SLAM, AND I NEVER REALLY DREAMED I WOULD WIN THE SAME TROPHY AS JANA DID. NOVOTNA DIED IN 2017 TO OVARIAN CANCER. KREJCIKOVA SHARING THAT SHE'S BEEN SPEAKING TO NOVOTNA IN HER DREAMS. PERHAPS THIS FOREHAND MENTIONED IN THEIR CONVERSATION. BEAUTIFULLY PLAYED. BETTER BELIEVE THAT. KREJCIKOVA DOMINATING THE FIRST SET 6-2 BEFORE PAOLINI HIT BACK. PAOLINI IS STILL ON A ROLL, AND TAKES A 4-1 LEAD. THE ROLAND GARROS FINALIST DRAWING ON THE CENTRE COURT CROWD TO FORCE A DECIDING THIRD SET. BUT WITH THE EXPERIENCE OF 11 GRAND SLAM TITLES TO DRAW ON ` AND NOVOTNA ON HER MIND ` KREJCIKOVA LIFTED. IMMACULATE. GAME NERVES. UNDER PRESSURE AND UNABLE TO RESPOND. WHILE THE SEVENTH SEED IS STILL CHASING A MAIDEN SLAM TITLE, SHE'S CERTAINLY A FAN FAVOURITE. I TRY JUST TO, YOU KNOW, KEEP SMILING. BECAUSE I HAVE TO REMEMBER THAT TODAY, IT'S STILL A GOOD DAY. BUT THIS DAY BELONGED TO KREJCIKOVA, PUTTING HER NAME IN THE HISTORY BOOKS, NOW AMONG SOME GOOD COMPANY. KATE WELLS, 1 NEWS. BUT IT WASN'T TO BE FOR SOME KIWI HISTORY, WITH ERIN ROUTLIFFE FALLING JUST SHORT OF THE WOMEN'S DOUBLES CROWN. ROUTLIFFE AND HER CANADIAN PARTNER GABY DABROWSKI FALLING IN TWO TIEBREAK SETS IN THE DECIDER, LEAVING THE KIWI EMOTIONAL. THERE'S SOMETHING ABOUT WIMBLEDON THAT MAKES YOU, LIKE, WAY MORE EMOTIONAL THAN OTHER TOURNAMENTS. YEAH, NO, GABY TOOK A CHANCE ON ME A YEAR AGO AND IT'S COMPLETELY AND TOTALLY CHANGED MY LIFE. DESPITE THE LOSS, ROUTLIFFE HAS OFFICIALLY RISEN TO NUMBER ONE IN THE WOMEN'S DOUBLES RANKINGS.

IT'S A` IT'S A BIG DEAL TODAY, MAN. I'VE BEEN WORKING ON THAT FOR A COUPLE YEARS. I NEVER WAS GOING TO CALL MYSELF AN INDYCAR DRIVER UNTIL I WON ON AN OVAL. SO I'M GOING TO CALL MYSELF AN INDYCAR DRIVER NOW. MCLAUGHLIN LEAPING UP TO FIFTH ON THE OVERALL STANDINGS, ONE PLACE BEHIND SCOTT DIXON, AHEAD OF ANOTHER RACE ON THE SAME TRACK TOMORROW.

BUT THEN YOU HAVE TO MAKE THOSE THINGS HAPPEN. A MINDSET THIS ENGLAND SIDE HAVE CARRIED THROUGHOUT THE TOURNAMENT, BLOCKING OUT CRITICISM OF THEIR STYLE OF PLAY. I'VE REALLY LIKED HOW WE'VE LOOKED.
