Serena Williams in the opening round of the WTA Cincinnati Masters. The 19-year-old Briton, who won the US Open last summer as a qualifier, makes her debut on Monday at the WTA and ATP hardcourt event, played a fortnight before the start of the US Open. Williams has indicated she will leave the sport sometime after the US Open, wrapping up a two-decade career filled with highlights, including 23 Grand Slam singles titles.
Bhaichung Bhutia feels that his national team seniors Bruno Coutinho and IM Vijayan are far more worthy candidates for the All India Football Federation's president's post but he would like to wait for a few days before the electoral list becomes clear. While the Returning Officer for the election has released the first list of 67 voters which includes representatives from 31 state units and 36 "eminent" footballers, the quantum of ex-players might not go down well with world football's governing body FIFA. Hence Bhutia wants to wait till the final electoral list is published in a few days' time.
Commonwealth Games in Birmingham earlier this month. Be it gold (team's event), silver in men's doubles with Sharath Kamal or bronze in individual category --- the 29-year-old won it all. For someone known to show his aggressive side on court, Sathiyan broke down after defeating England's Paul Drinkhall 11-9, 11-3, 11-5, 9-11, 9-11, 10-12, 11-9 to win the individual bronze medal.
Rafael Nadal is keeping expectations in check while focusing on fitness as he prepares for the Cincinnati Masters. The world number three, who handed in an abdominal muscle injury walkover in his Wimbledon semi-final with Nick Kyrgios, takes the second seeding behind Daniil Medvedev in the American Midwest at the joint ATP and WTA tournament. With Novak Djokovic missing due to his refusal to get a Covid-19 vaccination, the 36-year-old Spaniard has one less dangerous opponent to deal with at the US Open tuneup.
The 22-year-old Olympic silver medallist pipped Switzerland's Noe Ponti in second place with Poland's Jakub Majerski in third. Milak was in line to beat his own continental record of 49.68sec at the halfway stage before slowing down in the final 50m.
Both sides struggled to find attacking rhythm in a game played in 31-degree heat and punctuated by additional drinks breaks. Union's American striker Jordan Siebatcheu was withdrawn in the 70th minute after failing to keep his early season scoring streak alive, with the summer arrival having found the net in both of Berlin's games so far this season.
Cheteshwar Pujara smashed his way to a career-best List A score of 174, notching up his second hundred in a span of 48 hours as Sussex amassed a mammoth 378 for 6 against Surrey in the Royal London Cup One Day Championship on Sunday. On Friday, Pujara had caned the Warwickshire attack en route to his 79-ball 107 albeit in a losing cause. On Sunday, Sussex batted first on a small county ground at Hove, and were 9/2 inside first four overs when Tom Clark (104 off 106 balls) and Pujara joined forces to add 205 runs for the third wicket.
West Ham United on Sunday, their first victory of the new Premier League season as the City Ground hosted top-flight soccer for the first time since 1999. Awoniyi scored Forest's first Premier League goal in 23 years in first half stoppage time and it proved to be the difference as both teams had goals disallowed by VAR and West Ham captain Declan Rice had a second-half penalty saved.
