MUNICH >> Paris Saint-Germain, Champions League winner.

At long last the club that was transformed by Qatari billions and bought and sold a succession of the world’s greatest players in an extravagant bid to get to the top has its hands on the big one.

European club soccer’s grandest prize has a new home after PSG thrashed Inter Milan 5-0 in Saturday’s final in Munich.

The trophy that not even Lionel Messi, Neymar or Kylian Mbappe could deliver to the French club was finally claimed by Luis Enrique, the Spanish coach who has overseen PSG’s shift from the era of galactico signings to one of genuine team-building.

French teenager Désiré Doué scored twice and set up Achraf Hakimi for the opening goal.

Khvicha Kvaratskhelia and substitute Senny Mayulu completed the rout, which was the biggest winning margin in a Champions League final.

Girma returns, LaBonta makes historic debut in U.S. women’s win over China >> Naomi Girma returned to the national team and Lo’eau LaBonta became the oldest player to make her international debut for the U.S. in a 3-0 win over China.

Catarina Macario, Sam Coffey and Lindsey Heaps scored while goalkeeper Phallon Tullis-Joyce got her second shutout in as many appearances.

Golf

Stark avoids mistakes to take 1-shot lead into final round of the U.S. Women’s Open >> Maja Stark could tell pretty early Saturday that Erin Hills would provide much more of a challenge than it had in the first two days of the U.S. Women’s Open.

Yet she found a way to avoid the mistakes that befell so many other competitors during a brutal third round. Now the 25-year-old from Sweden is in position to earn the $2.4 million prize in the biggest event of the women’s golf season.

Stark shot a 2-under 70 to give her a 7-under 209 total and a one-shot advantage heading into the final round Sunday. Julia Lopez Ramirez of Spain was second after a 68, the best score of the day.

Scheffler has flawless card and surges into lead at the Memorial >> Scottie Scheffler was at his best on a tough day at Muirfield Village, opening with 13 straight pars and then pouring it on at the end for a 4-under 68 that gave him a one-shot lead over Ben Griffin at the Memorial.

Scheffler birdied four of his last five holes, finishing with a birdie from just inside 15 feet. He took the lead when Griffin missed a 3-foot par putt on the final hole.

Baseball

Mariners promote infield prospect Cole Young >> The Seattle Mariners promoted infield prospect Cole Young from Triple-A Tacoma ahead of their game against the Minnesota Twins on Saturday.

He will start at second base and bat eighth.

“He’s going to get his opportunity, no doubt,” manager Dan Wilson said of Young. “Some of it will depend on how things go with him, but he’s a guy who’s going to be here and he’s going to play a lot. He’s earned that, he’s going to get a chance to do that. Put him in the lineup and see how things go.”

Cardinals place OF Jordan Walker on the 10-day IL with inflammation in his left wrist >> St. Louis Cardinals outfielder Jordan Walker was placed on the 10-day injured list on Saturday with inflammation in his left wrist.

The Cardinals said the move was retroactive to Thursday, and they called up Ryan Vilade from Triple-A Memphis to take Walker’s roster spot.

Rockies demote first baseman Michael Toglia >> Struggling Colorado Rockies first baseman Michael Toglia was optioned to Triple-A Albuquerque prior to Saturday’s game against the New York Mets.

Toglia appeared to establish himself as the Rockies’ first baseman last year, when he hit .233 with 21 homers following his June recall from Triple-A. He produced his first multi-homer game July 14, when he went deep three times against the Mets at Citi Field.

Cycling

Redemption for Yates on epic mountain climb as he closes in on Giro d’Italia title >> Simon Yates produced one of the greatest rides of his career, up one of cycling’s most grueling climbs, to all but win the Giro d’Italia on Saturday.

Yates had started the penultimate stage in third, one minute and 21 seconds behind previous leader Isaac Del Toro but the British cyclist launched a solo attack on the beyond-category climb to Colle delle Finestre — the same mountain that spelled heartbreak for him seven years ago — to ride clear of his overall rivals.
