After capturing back-to-back Grand Slam titles and a silver medal at the Paris Olympics, world number three Carlos Alcaraz said one of his key goals for the rest of the season is to finish as the top-ranked player in the world.

PARIS: It was "au revoir" to an Olympic Games of spectacular venues, exuberant crowds and special moments on Sunday (Aug 11), with a finale fitting of the occasion.
USA Gymnastics submitted video evidence to the Court of Arbitration for Sport on Sunday (Aug 11) that it said proves Jordan Chiles should get to keep the bronze medal she won in the artistic gymnastics floor exercise at the Paris Olympics.
Those tasked with following Paris seem impressed. "They have done a spectacular job," Los Angeles 2028 CEO Casey Wasserman told Reuters. "The experience in the venues, which is what this is all about for the athletes and the fans, is world-class." He said Los Angeles would not try to match Paris in style and substance but in "authenticity and execution", a view echoed by IOC President Thomas Bach. "If LA would like to copy the Eiffel Tower, it would be a recipe for disaster," Bach said. "Each Olympic Games has to be authentic, has to be creative, has to show the culture of the host country." Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass acknowledged Paris had set a high bar, and that LA's homelessness problems would be a challenge to overcome. But the City of Angels has one world class asset that nobody else can claim: "We do have Hollywood, so I expect a lot of magical opportunities," she told Reuters.
