| | | | Jordan Travis sparks 2nd-half rally as No. 8 Seminoles romp | ACC-poor FSU dominates No. 5 LSU and all of its SEC money | Limited Pride edged at OL Reign | | | | Florida State quarterback Jordan Travis accounted for five TDs and Keon Coleman had 3 scores as the Seminoles rallied to clobber LSU. | | | | | Breaking news: Athletic budgets, media rights deals and grant-of-rights agreements had nothing to do with FSU dominating LSU. The Seminoles have more than enough money to compete for a national championship. | | | | | Backup goalkeeper Carly Nelson was called upon early in the game for the Pride, who competed for most of the match with just 10 players on the field. | | | | | The U.S. is going to the Paris Olympics next summer. Lithuania made sure that was the only good development for the Americans on Sunday night, when it pulled off a Basketball World Cup stunner. Vaidas Kariniauskas scored 15 points and Lithuania beat the U.S. 110-104 in a second-round game. The loss was the first for the U.S. in 10 games this summer, counting five exhibition games on the way to the World Cup. It came on the night the Americans officially clinched a berth in the Paris Games when Serbia beat the Dominican Republic. | | | | | Taylor Walls delivered the go-ahead run in the 8th, his mates added on in the 9th, and the bullpen made it stand up. | | | | | Between Skylar Thompson and Mike White, the Dolphins need to find a reliable backup behind Tagovailoa, who missed 5.5 games last year. The backup should be Thompson, the one they had on the roster all along. | | | | | Iga Swiatek's U.S. Open title defense has ended with a 3-6, 6-3, 6-1 loss to Jelena Ostapenko in the fourth round. The loss Sunday night also means Swiatek's stay at No. 1 in the WTA rankings will end next week. Current No. 2 Aryna Sabalenka will rise to the top spot for the first time. Swiatek's shots were off-target in Arthur Ashe Stadium and she had a difficult time handling the hard hitting from the 20th-seeded Ostapenko, who won the 2017 French Open. Ostapenko is now 4-0 against Swiatek over their careers. No other player owns four victories against the woman who has led the WTA rankings since April 2022. Ostapenko will face Coco Gauff next. | | | | | The 2021 Cup Series champion automatically advances into the round of 12 with the win at Darlington Raceway, no matter how he does in races at Kansas and Bristol the next two weeks. | | | | | Another flawless performance from the two-time defending champion saw Verstappen beat Red Bull teammate Sergio Pérez by 6.064 seconds. | | | | | Palou is now a two-time IndyCar champion with Ganassi following a dominant run Sunday that gave him his series-leading fifth win of the season. | | | |
