Aug 4 : Few young players on the WTA Tour have experienced the level of expectation and support Alexandra Eala has received since she earned a place on the elite women's circuit, and on Monday the Filipina showed what all the fuss is about by winning the Washington Open.
WASHINGTON: Alexandra Eala capped her giant-killing run at the Washington Open with a 4-6, 6-4, 6-0 victory over top-seeded Jessica Pegula on Monday to become the first player from the Philippines to win a WTA title. Eala, ranked 28th, overpowered Pegula over the final two sets as play resumed in the final suspended after lengthy weather delays on Sunday. The 21-year-old left-hander produced a rock-solid service display and an impressive array of winners to deny third-ranked Pegula a 12th career title and a third this year. She won the last nine games of the contest, surrendering just eight points in the third set. “Just pure happiness,” Eala said of her first title, which comes after she agonizingly failed to convert four championship points in her only prior final at Eastbourne last year. “Oh my gosh, winning a 500, it’s insane. It’s an incredible milestone for me,” she added. “At the beginning of the week, there is no way I would have thought that I would be holding this trophy.

Aug 4 : All Blacks hooker George Bell will return to New Zealand after suffering a calf strain in training ahead of this week's opening match of the tour of South Africa against the Stormers, the team said on Tuesday.
According to ESPN Research, there are 28 teams with at least a 10% chance to reach the College Football Playoff this season. One notable difference in the 12-team format this fall is that each Power 4 conference champion is guaranteed a spot in the field — which means that any team with a shot at winning the Big Ten, SEC, Big 12 and ACC is a legitimate CFP contender. Notre Dame is also guaranteed an automatic bid if it finishes in the top 12 on Selection Day.
