France is mourning the loss of numerous lives once again after a large truck careered along a packed promenade where large crowds had gathered for the Bastille Day firework display, eight months on from a separate atrocity in Paris which left 130 dead and many more badly wounded.
It was announced on Friday morning that the Tour de France will continue as planned, with current race leader Chris Froome among those to pay tribute to those who had lost their lives.
Organisers of The Open have made black armbands available to all players to wear at Royal Troon in their own mark of respect, meanwhile, and the France Tricolore has been lowered at half mast over the 18th green.
