Linda Noskova edges Kostyuk, advances to quarterfinals

Wimbledon champion Linda Noskova reached the quarterfinals of the US Open on Sunday, edging Ukraine’s Marta Kostyuk in three sets.
The Czech Noskova, who has largely flown under the radar in New York despite winning Wimbledon, beat Kostyuk 7-5, 5-7, 6-4, finally sealing the win on her sixth match point when Kostyuk netted a backhand return.
“I am more than relieved,” Noskova said after booking a last-eight showdown with two-time defending champion Aryna Sabalenka. “This match was so tough, emotionally more so than physically.”

After a hard-fought first set, Noskova, seeded sixth, appeared poised for a relatively straightforward win, holding two match points while serving for the second set up at 5-4.
But Kostyuk, who has won two titles in 2026, slapped a forehand winner on the first and saved the second by drilling a ball at Noskova, who was at the net and couldn’t handle the volley.
Riding momentum and loud crowd support in Louis Armstrong Stadium, Kostyuk went on to take the next two games to force a third set.
In the third set, the Czech scored a key break at 3-3.
But with Noskova serving at 5-4, Kostyuk saved three more match points but couldn’t return a strong serve from Noskova, who fell to her knees after finally finishing the two-hour and 27-minute match.
Noskova took a bathroom break after the second set, as she did in the Wimbledon final against fellow Czech Karolina Muchova when she also found herself in a third set after squandering match points.

“I just had to leave the court. There was a lot of noise, but obviously I had to restart. I had to refocus, kind of put it behind me, which was not easy at all,” Noskova said.
“It’s always the most important thing to kind of get yourself back mentally after such opportunities, either in Wimby or here.”
Kostyuk said after the match that she has been playing with a right wrist injury and planned to get an MRI now that the tournament is over.
“I wasn’t 100 percent for sure,” said Kostyuk, who smiled in the later stages of the second as the crowd “started going crazy” as she saved match points.
“I’ve never had the whole stadium cheer for me like this, and it was so loud, and yeah, I wanted to soak it in, and it kept going until the rest of the match,” she said. “So it was incredible. So nothing else but smile about it.”
Kostyuk, a vocal critic of the Russian invasion of Ukraine who has spoken of the toll on her family, said she enjoyed the atmosphere despite losing.

“I just lost a match. Of course, it’s a Grand Slam. It was very close match, but I’m very happy, and nothing about the result of the match is gonna change it,” Kostyuk said. “It’s just a tennis match. I mean, come on, all good.”
Qinwen Zheng continued her extraordinary US Open run as she produced a comeback from 0-5 down in a set for the second match in a row to knock out six-time grand slam champion Iga Swiatek and reach the quarter-finals.
Former Olympic champion Zheng, who defeated Swiatek in the gold medal match in Paris two years ago, had to qualify to reach the main draw of the US Open. The Chinese star missed long stretches of the 2025 season due to an elbow injury and had fallen to No 121 in the rankings.
After qualifying for the main draw and reaching the third round, Zheng trailed former Australian Open champion Madison Keys 0-5 and was match point down in the third set before winning seven consecutive games to win 1-6 7-6 (7-3) 7-5 against the American 22nd seed.
Two days later against the eighth seed and former US Open champion Swiatek, Zheng trailed 0-5 in the first yet produced the same trick, winning seven games in a row to clinch the set. She then converted the only break of serve in the second set to win 7-5 6-3 and reach the quarter-finals of the US Open for the third time.
Zheng fell onto her back after converting her fourth match point. She has now won seven matches in a row in New York. “Well, honestly, I have to say, I started the match not so well,” she said. “Little by little I found my rhythm on the center court because it’s been a long, long time. I just really appreciate it to be here in the Ashe Stadium.
”I just focused point by point and little by little I start to play better tennis, I start to find my game and in one moment I even forgot the score in the first set at 4-5. That shows how I’m focused. I guess to come back 0-5 yesterday is not lucky, that’s all I can say.
”I’m just really happy to win this match cause it’s not easy and it’s been a while really. I didn’t beat any top 10 player. I just really, really appreciated this win for me, and I want to say thank you for all the fans who come to support me today.”
For Swiatek, defeat to Zheng brought a familiar story and the former Wimbledon champion left Arthur Ashe Stadium in tears. The Pole’s error count spiralled, finishing with 28 in total. Swiatek’s last five exits from the grand slams since winning Wimbledon in 2025 have also come in straight-sets.
Zheng will play either second seed Elena Rybakina or 13th seed Naomi Osaka, the two-time US Open champion, in the quarter-finals. Earlier, French Open champion Mirra Andreeva produced her own comeback to defeat Anastasia Potapova 5-7 6-4 6-3 and reach her first US Open quarter-final.
Potopova was also in floods of tears as her stay in New York came to an end. The 25-year-old, who represents Austria, won the first set against fifth seed Andreeva, but, at 5-3 down in the third she badly twisted her knee chasing a forehand down.
Potopova had the knee heavily strapped up and bravely finished the match, but did not win another point. “Anastasia is a good friend, and seeing what a battle we have and then seeing her fall is not easy,” said Russian teenager Andreeva. “It’s not the way you want to finish the match. I just told her she is playing amazing and I’m sure she’ll come back even stronger, she’s a warrior.”

The Fresno State Bulldogs visit the USC Trojans on Friday, September 4, 2026 at 6:00 p.m. PT from Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum, Los Angeles, CA.
USC enters Friday off a 42-26 win over San Jose State to open the 2026 season, improving to 1-0 as the No. 14 team in the country. Fresno State is still 0-0 on the year, and its last trip to face USC ended in a 45-17 loss back in 2022. USC is a 21.5-point favorite at DraftKings, with the total set at 51.5.
Below, we’ll give you all the details you need to know about how to watch this game.

Players to Watch
USC needed one week to answer questions about its passing game, and Maiava provided it. He threw for 286 yards and two touchdowns in the opener, added a rushing score, and finished with 18 points as the Trojans built the nation’s top third down offense right out of the gate. Lincoln Riley’s attack already ranks first in the country in third down conversion rate and total yards per game, and Maiava is the one steering it. Fresno State’s defense carried that program through a nine win season a year ago, but it has not faced a quarterback playing at this pace yet. If Maiava is as efficient in Week 2 as he was in Week 1, USC’s offense could turn this into a rout early.
Mosley did more than catch passes in USC’s opener. He led the Trojans with 118 receiving yards and a touchdown, then added 56 punt return yards to finish with a team high 174 all purpose yards. That versatility matters against a Fresno State team built around defense, since Mosley does not need a shootout to be effective. He can change field position on special teams even on a night when the passing game stalls. With Maiava spreading throws around a deep receiver room, Mosley’s ability to win after the catch gives USC a release valve, whether the Trojans are grinding through Fresno State’s toughest defensive series or trying to put the game away early.
Fresno State opens the season still sorting out its quarterback room, and Martin is one of two candidates coach Matt Entz has trusted with the job, along with Jayden Mandal. Whichever one starts against USC will lean on a defense that carried the Bulldogs to nine wins a year ago, since Fresno State’s only Power Four loss in 2025 came by 24 points to Kansas. Martin does not have to be spectacular for Fresno State to hang in this game. He needs to protect the ball, extend drives and let a defense that already outplays its own offense control the tempo. Against a USC team that scored at will in Week 1, that margin for error will be thin.

Indian golfer Krishiv Tekchandani, who has won more than 100 trophies across international competitions, is embarking on an entrepreneurial journey beyond golf with his ultra-luxury watch venture, XII NOON. The 19-year-old golfer first came into the spotlight at a young age for his achievements on the golf course and has also used his platform to support social causes. During the COVID-19 pandemic, Tekchandani donated his entire prize money towards a vaccination drive for blue-collar workers at his golf club. He also appealed to young people to donate blood before receiving COVID-19 vaccinations, highlighting concerns over a potential shortage of blood donations during the vaccination period.
The initiatives reflected Tekchandani’s efforts to use his public profile to encourage social responsibility among young people, alongside his achievements in competitive sport.
With more than 100 trophies won across international competitions, Tekchandani has continued to pursue his academic and entrepreneurial interests alongside golf. He has studied at the London School of Economics and Harvard Business School.
As part of his entrepreneurial journey, Tekchandani has entered the ultra-luxury watch segment with XII NOON, a venture focused on limited production, craftsmanship and exclusivity. The venture plans to produce only 45 timepieces a year.
“My vision is to build a globally recognised ultra-luxury house of Bharat origin, producing only 45 timepieces a year. XII NOON is made with Bharat, for the world. It is not made for everyone, but created for those who value rarity, craftsmanship, exclusivity and purpose. For me, this journey is about building luxury with purpose,” Tekchandani said.
According to the venture, a percentage of its earnings will be dedicated towards supporting widows of Indian Army soldiers, adding a social-impact component to the initiative.
Tekchandani’s transition into entrepreneurship marks another chapter in a journey that began with golf at a young age. Having competed and won across international events, the teenager is now looking to apply the discipline and focus developed through sport to his entrepreneurial pursuits.
His journey has also earned him recognition on social media and in publications, including Forbes.
From competing on golf courses around the world to exploring the world of entrepreneurship, Tekchandani is now seeking to build a career that combines sport, business and philanthropy.

MORE: NCAA reduces Tennessee star linebacker Arion Carter’s suspension to one game
It comes after the NCAA suspended Carter in July after he originally accepted a $427 flight from his agent. The flight was scheduled to go to an NFL pre-draft training facility after Carter originally entered the 2026 NFL Draft. He later withdrew from the draft because of an injury.
Carter was originally suspended for three games before an appeal by Tennessee reduced the suspension to two. It was subsequently reduced to one game in late August.
This is an awesome gesture from Carter, and it’s set to start this Saturday when Tennessee travels to Atlanta to face Georgia Tech. The Vols will play a Yellow Jackets team that’s still reeling from a 14-13 loss to the Colorado Buffaloes in Week 1. The Yellow Jackets had the chance to win the game with a field goal, but the Buffaloes blocked it.

Kickoff for that contest will be at 7 p.m. ET on ESPN.
Carter compiled 76 total tackles, 1.5 sacks, a forced fumble, and a pass defended last year. For his career, he has 161 total tackles.

The Jon Sumrall era began in Gainesville with an offensive explosion that saw Florida football score a 66-21 victory over the FAU Owls in the Swamp. The Gators finished with the most yards gained since 2020 and their point total was the most in a season opener since a 69-0 thrashing of Montana State in 1988.
Sumrall also continued a streak of first-year UF coaches winning their debuts. The last one to lose their first game in Gainesville was Charlie Pell, who began the 1979 campaign with a 14-10 loss to Houston; the Gators did not win a single game that season.

With all 31 new head coaches having wrapped up their first games after Week 1’s action, USA TODAY Sports writer Paul Myerberg ranked them all based on their initial results. Sumrall landed just outside of the top 10 at No. 11 in his rankings.
“The Gators’ energy and aggressiveness led the way to 624 yards of offense, 30 first downs, three takeaways and a 66-21 blowout against Florida Atlantic. Florida looked like a Sumrall-coached team, basically.”
Looking like a “Sumrall-coached team” bodes well for the Orange and Blue, given his track record at his previous two stops, having amassed a 43-12 record between Troy and Tulane over four seasons.
Just below Sumrall in the rankings at No. 12 is former Gators skipper Billy Napier, who took over the sideline duties for the James Madison Dukes this season. While he started with a W at his new gig, there appears to still be some room for improvement.

“JMU wasn’t too great on offense but still managed to pull out a 20-13 win against Liberty. The Dukes will need to get more scoring on the board to repeat atop the Sun Belt.”
The rankings were headlined by Lane Kiffin, whose LSU Tigers thoroughly humiliated Clemson on Saturday, followed by Bob Chesney with UCLA, Jim Mora with Colorado State, Charles Huff with Memphis and Pete Golding with Ole Miss, respectively.

Detroit Tigers general manager Jeff Greenberg withdrew his name from consideration for the gig, Sportsnet’s Elliotte Friedman reported on Monday.
Greenberg, 40, has served as Tigers GM for three seasons under president of baseball operations Scott Harris. He previously spent the 2022-23 season as an assistant general manager with the Chicago Blackhawks.
The Tigers and Red Wings share an owner in the Ilitch family.
Franchise legend Steve Yzerman stepped down from the Red Wings GM role in July after seven seasons without a post-season appearance, extending the team’s playoff drought to a decade.
The incoming head of hockey operations will face a major task right from the jump, with captain Dylan Larkin having requested a trade early in the off-season.
Meanwhile, the Tigers have endured a tumultuous season of their own, sliding out of the post-season picture after dealing ace Tarik Skubal to the Los Angeles Dodgers at the trade deadline.

Mandatory Credit: Gary A. Vasquez-Imagn Images The pressure to perform will reach new depths this upcoming NBA season.
Take Kevin Johnson, for example. As the 76ers’ athletic trainer, it’s his task not only to keep Joel Embiid upright for as many regular-season games as possible for seeding purposes, but also to make sure he’s rested enough to be at his best come time to run the gauntlet of what promises to be the deepest and most contentious Eastern Conference playoffs ever.
Then there’s Drew Moore. His goal as Celtics head trainer is to get Brad Stevens off the hot seat for dealing a star player in his prime for a has-been who’s limping toward the end of his career. And he’ll have to do this with Paul George while Jayson Tatum insists upon being first in line at the trainer’s table because, well, he’s entitled.
And finally, you got Rick Celebrini. You’ve probably heard of his son – hockey star Macklin Celebrini. This summer, none other than Kristaps Porzingis put dad, the Warriors’ vice president of player health and performance, on the map as well, claiming you can throw out his previous 350 career no-shows because – thanks to Celebrini’s magic touch – he’s never felt better. Of course, Porzingis – a critical participant if the Warriors are to remain competitive this season – sat out 16 of 31 games after joining Golden State last February, but who’s counting?
Those are tough ways to make a living, but I’ve identified five men in a variety of NBA job descriptions for whom the heat will be even hotter this winter:
LEBRON JAMES
No disrespect, Mr. Johnson, but Embiid is going to get hurt again this year. Likely multiple times. That’s one reason the 76ers pursued LeBron in the first place even though the addition of Jaylen Brown was credited with jump-starting Philadelphia’s championship pulse.
Let’s be honest: If the 76ers don’t win the title this season, it’ll fall upon LeBron’s broad shoulders. He’s hand-delivered championships in Miami, Cleveland and Los Angeles, all with lesser supporting casts. Anything short of similar success in Philadelphia will make his final decision – the lasting impression – a poor one. And the GOAT will have died.
LAMELO BALL

The door is open for the Timberwolves to be the third-best team in the West this season. That’s the ceiling anyone other than the Spurs and Thunder can only hope to achieve. Thanks to a lot of former conference champs and contenders having seen better days, Minnesota – led by Anthony Edwards – is the most likely to get a shot at one of the powerhouses in the Western semifinals.
If, that is, the very serious Edwards can get along with the very unserious Ball in a pairing that has pancakes and ketchup plastered all over it. Yeah, it worked years ago when Magic Johnson free-wheeled while Byron Scott did the dirty work, but Edwards is a whole lot more talented than Scott, while Ball only thinks his wizardry resembles the second coming of Magic. Stand back, this could explode. And if so, Ball will get bounced. If they took a vote on a Coach of the Finals in June, Johnson almost surely would have finished third behind Mike Brown and second-place tie between a million fans screaming at their TV, insisting they could be doing a better job than Johnson. Unfortunately, some were probably right.
I mean, who stations his Human Dunk Machine 30 feet from the basket time and time again? Yeah, some will blame Victor Wembanyama for having caught a 3-point-shooting ego disease from Giannis Antetokounmpo. But there’s a cure for that, and it’s called Be More Like Gregg Popovich And Less Like Guy Lewis. When you can save at least one point per possession by fouling Mitchell Robinson and instead you choose to try to win playing REAL basketball … well, that’s REAL stupid. Johnson is gone if that continues.
First let’s talk about all the good things Dunleavy has done since being confronted with the exceptionally low bar that comes with an opportunity to prove he’s a better general manager than a draft choice. He acquired Jimmy Butler III for peanuts. Well done.
And then he … uh, that’s pretty much it. The low point came this off-season, not only in the failed pursuit of LeBron, but in his inability to do anything except get owner Joe Lacob to boast: We’ll have a lot of options at the trade deadline. Almost sure to be under .500 and pretty much irrelevant at that point thanks to Dunleavy’s propensity for doing nothing, Warriors fans fear Stephen Curry – the Golden Boy of Bay Area Sports – will want to finish his career elsewhere. And if that happens, Dunleavy will be fired … at least a year too late.
What was the NBA thinking giving Donald Trump a backdoor into league ownership? You don’t really think Josh Kushner is doing anything but greasing his brother’s father-in-law’s path back into professional sports as his next occupation, do you? Man, this is going to be a terrible marriage for Iger, who likely just wants a good seat from which to slap hands with Luka Doncic. But worse than Luka showing up at 250 pounds, you’ll know this is going to be a nightmare for Iger the minute the Lakers announce Karoline Leavitt as their new PR director. Heck, Leavitt could announce it herself, then prepare the press release for Iger’s formal termination in 2028.

Pakistan cricket crisis deepens as investigation launched into ‘discipline and conduct’ during England tour
An internal investigation into “media reports concerning discipline and conduct” has been launched by Pakistan amid their crisis tour of England.
It follows an unprecedented move last week in which seven players were sent home and seven replacements called up after heavy defeats at Headingley and Lord’s left the touring side 2-0 down in the three-match series.
Head coach Sarfaraz Ahmed and assistant Umar Gul have also been replaced, with Mike Hesson, in charge of Pakistan’s white-ball sides, and former Australia seamer Ashley Noffke supervising the final Test at Edgbaston this week.
A statement read: “The Pakistan Cricket Board has initiated an internal disciplinary inquiry following media reports concerning discipline and conduct, which are currently being reviewed internally.
“The PCB handles such matters in accordance with its standard procedures. The process is being conducted under PCB regulations, ensuring that all concerned individuals are given due consideration.
“At this stage, any speculative reports or unverified claims circulating on certain platforms, particularly those originating from hostile external sources, should not be regarded as credible.”
The dismissed senior players include Salman Ali Agha – who served as captain for Pakistan in the opening Test prior to being dropped for the second – wicketkeeper Mohammad Rizwan and Imam-ul-Haq, who did not bat in either innings because of a low-grade calf strain.
Former captain Shahid Afridi called the decision by the PCB to make such extensive squad alterations the “most shocking decision ever by a selection committee”.
Among the seven replacement players called up, only batters Saim Ayub and Abdullah Fazal have Test experience.
Monday’s statement from the PCB added: “The PCB will not comment further at this time. The board advises stakeholders and the public to rely on official PCB communications.”
Speaking to reporters in Birmingham on Monday, Noffke admitted he was unaware of the details regarding the probe.
“I can be really honest in that I don’t know too much,” he said. “I sit outside of that decision-making model, (which is) above us as coaches. We try and keep the players focused on what they need to worry about.
“One thing that I’ve learned about being in Pakistan and coaching for a period of time, nearly 15 months now with the white-ball team, is there’s always something going on in the background.
“I think most of the time it’s out of the players’ control. They need to focus on the cricket that they have in front of them and the opportunity they have in front of them.
“We’re not really in the position to even know the outer workings of what’s happening at PCB in that context.”

Sugar Ray Leonard says one of the Four Kings hurt him so bad he should’ve retired after the fight
Sugar Ray Leonard mixed it with the very best, including each of his fellow Four Kings, but admits he should have retired after encountering the ferocious fists of one man.
The American officially called time on his Hall of Fame career in 1997, having returned from a six-year absence and suffered a fifth-round stoppage defeat to Hector Camacho.
Prior to that, Leonard lost a unanimous decision to Terry Norris, but was evidently competing at a time when he no longer possessed his physical attributes of old.
Instead, his prime years lasted between 1979 and 1981, when he established himself as the top dog at 147lbs with iconic wins over Wilfred Benitez, Roberto Duran and Tommy Hearns.
After losing his first encounter with Duran, Leonard won their rematch by eighth-round stoppage, before defending his WBC title with a 14th-round finish over Hearns.
Sugar then entered a rematch with ‘The Hitman’ in 1989, only to suffer two knockdowns and come away with a highly controversial draw.
Speaking with Sky Sports, he admitted this was the night he should have hung up his gloves.
“Tommy should’ve won the decision. Everyone said Tommy [was] shot; even my camp said, ‘One punch, he’s gone’.”
“I said to myself: When Tommy fights me, he’s gonna rise to the occasion. And Tommy did that, and he hurt me so many times.”
“I knew I should’ve retired after the Hearns fight, [or] even after the [Marvin] Hagler fight. Tommy [is] a sweetheart but, when he’s in the ring, he is a killer.”
Leonard’s middleweight clash with Hagler resulted in a controversial split decision, with many believing he was fortunate to emerge victorious in 1987.
Ian Poulter on the golf course while speaking on Golf Channel? Thoughtful. After son Luke’s Great Britain and Ireland team had rallied on Sunday to defeat the U.S. at the Walker Cup, he reflected on the scene at Lahinch Golf Club in Ireland.
But Poulter a little while later in an Irish pub?
He said he had just one thing to say.
Sunday was something for Poulter, one of the European Ryder Cup team’s best-ever players and now a LIV Golf pro. Luke won his Sunday singles match. GB&I won the Cup. Afterward, Golf Channel’s Steve Burkowski wondered what Poulter made of it all. There were four questions.
How would Poulter describe what those at Lahinch saw?
“Absolutely thrilling,” Poulter said. “As a dad, as a fan, as somebody who loves golf and has been part of golf, that was truly special. To see the boys come up 17 and 18 and for Josh [Hill] to literally have that last putt on the last hole to literally clinch it was epic. All the guys that had to come up 18, that had to get something out of the hole, Eliot [Baker] and all of the boys and Connor [Graham], they did such a special job. It was great to observe and watch the lads really get that special moment. Dean [Robertson] has done an amazing job the last couple of years.”
What did he think of the job done by Robertson, the GB&I captain?
“They bonded extremely well,” Poulter said. “They had a number of lads come back from last year to this year. Dean had a great atmosphere in the team room this week. I was only in there for a short period of time, but the buzz between the boys was very special. They took on the course — it was a hard morning in tough conditions, but to come out early in the singles this afternoon and put some blue on the board and then to watch the boys finish it off, amazing.”
What was the atmosphere like when Hill clinched the Cup with a putt on the 18th hole?
“It was emotional,” Poulter said. “As a dad, as a golf fan, I feel for all of them. I’ve kind of been on the other side of that and now to enjoy that and to watch them enjoy it themselves, it means a lot to the whole team and all of the lads. That was a hard-fought win today.”
Finally, did Poulter get more nervous watching or playing? He laughed.
“It’s not easy at all,” he said. “It’s not easy. Just a lot of pride, and proud of each and every one of them. They’ve done an amazing job this week.”
Everyone then made their way to the pub.
Where Poulter found a mic.
He said he had just one thing to say.
He sang. If you’ve watched celebrations of Ryder Cup wins, you know the words.
“O-le, o-le, o-le, o-le, o-le, o-le.”
