Here is selection of the best reaction so far from the world of sport. With #Brexit and the way the US presidential race is going.... Can we take a mulligan on 2016??— Rory McIlroy (@McIlroyRory) June 24, 2016 You should probably check the voting for Scotland Donald. https://t.co/OlEwUfkHuT — Lee Westwood (@WestwoodLee) June 24, 2016 A vote for Farage, Boris & a recession well done to the over 50's for thinking of the future!— Jamie Carragher (@Carra23) June 24, 2016 Johnson stabs Cameron in the back will he get his job ? Nice— Peter Reid (@reid6peter) June 24, 2016 Any chance we can have another go???๐๐ #EURefResults pic.twitter.com/Ab0m21qIcm— James Taylor (@jamestaylor20) June 24, 2016 Can we start today again please ?— andrew flintoff (@flintoff11) June 24, 2016 It's not a time for triumphalism. Not a time for division. Not a time for hatred. It's a time for change. A time for calm. A time in history— Gary Lineker (@GaryLineker) June 24, 2016 The disgusting lies already coming to the fore. https://t.co/QRaihfOn41— Gary Lineker (@GaryLineker) June 24, 2016 We should maybe change the 'Union Jack' to 'I'm alright Jack'.— Gary Lineker (@GaryLineker) June 24, 2016 Feel ashamed of my generation. We've let down our children and their children. — Gary Lineker (@GaryLineker) June 24, 2016 absolutely agree @susannareid100 @piersmorgan @GMB https://t.co/3K10PLB6VI— Frank Bruno MBE (@frankbrunoboxer) June 24, 2016 Woken up to carnage!!! The breakdown is interesting that 75% of young people voted to remain... Can someone explain the impacts of this?— Jonny Bairstow (@jbairstow21) June 24, 2016 In shock this morning, did people really forget that the main point of the EU was to end wars and create unity and strength?— Paula Radcliffe (@paulajradcliffe) June 24, 2016 Didn't expect to wake up to that news. #EUref #Sceptical — michael owen (@themichaelowen) June 24, 2016 Kim Jong un, Vladimir Putin, Donald Drumpf and Boris Johnson.

Well done, GB! #EUref ๐ pic.twitter.com/2SxWtVlcYg— KP (@KP24) June 24, 2016 Disappointed to wake up to the results that we are leaving the EU. There was no real justifiable reason strong enough for us to leave.— Adam Gemili (@Adam_Gemili) June 24, 2016 Simply stating immigration or economics is not justifying anything. Lots of misleading with not enough simply & clear info for us to digest!— Adam Gemili (@Adam_Gemili) June 24, 2016
