PARIS : Portugal's sensational last-gasp victory over Fiji for their first World Cup win on Sunday was one of the moments of the tournament but the economic realities of the game mean such upsets are destined to remain a rarity.
Shanghai Masters top seed Carlos Alcaraz fought through what he called "one of the toughest matches this year" to make the tournament's final 16 on Monday, beating Britain's Daniel Evans 7-6 (7/1), 6-4. The Spaniard is the only one of the tournament's top four seeds left after Stefanos Tsitsipas of Greece crashed out in a late-night match to France's Ugo Humbert 6-4, 3-6, 7-5. Alcaraz' nearly two-and-a-half-hour match was ferociously physical, with 33rd-ranked Evans giving as good as he got, leading at one point by three games in the first set. But over the course of prolonged and sometimes scrappy rallies that left spectators gasping and groaning, the world number two gradually assumed control, comprehensively winning the first-set tiebreaker.

PARIS :Antoine Dupont's chances of playing in France's quarter-final clash against defending champions South Africa at the World Cup were given a massive boost when he was cleared to resume rugby training on Monday.
As qualifying for the 2016 Rio Olympics approached, Molly Carlson found herself in a dark place. She was struggling through a binge eating disorder, had body dysmorphia, and was constantly comparing her body to the other athletes on Canada's diving team.
