Sport v weather: when wind, rain, hail, snow, thunder and lightning attack

Bob Dylan once sang that you don't need a weatherman to know which way the wind blows. He might have added that, even when it's clearly blowing too hard and bringing down torrential rain and spiteful hail, some people still won't listen. They will plough on, trying to kick balls through puddles, score field goals into the wind and play tennis while fire rains down from the heavens on to the courts below. At least some of their madness has been captured on film.

They think it's all over...

"Corner" kick

Andy Murray v the wind

Golfing in the snow

Muddy trotters

The windiest game in NFL history

Persistence pays off

Joga bonito

And a rare example of when extreme weather can help
