London — Prince Harry and Meghan arrived back in the United Kingdom on Wednesday, CBS News' partner network BBC News reported. The Duke and ******* ss of Sussex were understood to have flown privately with their two children from California and landed in Birmingham in the early afternoon.
A spokesperson for the couple told CBS News they could not "comment or guide on the family's private travel movements," given privacy and security concerns.
The news broke last week that Harry and Meghan would be returning to Britain after six years in California.
The pair have no plans to resume royal duties. They will continue as non-working members of the royal family, as they have been for six years, and the BBC said they were expected to live in the affluent Cotswolds region, about a 2-hour drive west of London.
The couple said in January 2020 that they were stepping away from their roles as senior, working members of the royal family to become financially independent.

The check-swing call that got San Francisco Giants manager Tony Vitello ejected on Wednesday afternoon was borderline, a maybe, maybe not.
Vitello's fiery response to getting tossed, though, was crisp and clear on the visiting TV audio. After yelling – at the very least – "Get it right!" before home-plate umpire Ryan Blakney sent him to an early shower, Vitello popped out of the dugout with some words that got the crowd-mic volume hastily turned down on NBC Sports Bay Area.
Pointing at first-base umpire Ben May, Vitello unleashed some swear words while continuing to interject "get it f---ing right" after May ruled that Eugenio Suárez hadn't swung at a 1-2 pitch from Logan Webb.
Vitello was known for his occasional displays of temper while at the University of Tennessee, but in his first three ejections this season, he was relatively restrained in his responses. Director of major league pitching Frank Anderson, Vitello's pitching coach at Tennessee, was more animated when he was ejected along with Adrian Houser on May 2.
On Wednesday, with his team going for its first sweep of the season, Vitello let loose and at the least, got his money's worth for the fine that comes along with getting ejected.

A former fan-favorite NFL event has been eliminated.
The Pro Bowl, formerly a tackle game, and more recently, a flag football and ***** orted competition event, will be discontinued, the NFL said in a statement released on Wednesday afternoon.
Instead of a flag football game, the NFL will try to elevate the status of what it means to be elected a Pro Bowler. There will be 88 players selected and no replacement selections with players, coaches and fans each continuing to account for one-third of the voting.
In recent years, it became increasingly common for the NFL's top names (Josh Allen, Patrick Mahomes, among other stars) to decline their Pro Bowl invitations, resulting in players such as Tyler Huntley and Shedeur Sanders earning invitations to participate in the annual football game, which made the event feel less meaningful. Instead, the NFL plans to make the honor something worth celebrating again.
"By limiting the honor to the 88 players originally selected, the Pro Bowl presented by Verizon will return its focus squarely to recognizing the league's most outstanding performers, reinforcing the significance of an achievement held in especially high regard by players themselves," the statement continued. "As part of that focus, the NFL will no longer stage an AFC vs. NFC Pro Bowl game. Instead, the league will place greater emphasis on the moment a player is selected, the recognition that accompanies that distinction and bringing the Pro Bowl presented by Verizon class together to celebrate the achievement."

Detroit Tigers starter Troy Melton did his part in an afternoon pitchers duel, save for one early inning that put his squad behind for good.
Despite another quality start from Melton, the Tigers lost, 3-0, to the Tampa Bay Rays on Wednesday, Aug. 26, at Comerica Park in Detroit. The loss gave the Rays the series win and dropped the Tigers to 62-71.
It was Melton's ninth quality start of the season, as the righty allowed three runs over seven innings but left with the loss, his third of the year. Melton's efficient outing didn't help the Tigers match Tampa Bay starter Freddy Peralta, who threw six scoreless innings in his best start since the Rays acquired him at the trade deadline from the New York Mets.
The Rays scored two runs in the second inning, which turned out to be all the offense they needed to secure the win. Meanwhile, the Tigers recorded just two total hits and didn't bring a single runner into scoring position.
And the challenge only gets greater for the Tigers. After a day off on Thursday, Aug. 27, Detroit hosts the back-to-back World Series-winning Los Angeles Dodgers in a three-game set, with a familiar friend taking the hill on Friday, Aug. 28, for the defending champions.

Simone Ashley may have a new romance in her life after spending much of the past year saying she wanted to take her time before entering another relationship.
The 31-year-old Bridgerton star was photographed holding hands with Jay Jammal during an August 23 outing in London's Notting Hill neighborhood. Just Jared identified Jammal as a senior account executive at Soho Communications, while neither he nor Ashley has publicly defined their relationship.
The outing looked considerably more casual than a red-carpet debut. Ashley wore a short yellow dress and patterned blue bandana while she and Jammal walked dogs through the neighborhood, and photographs showed the two smiling and holding hands.
It is the first time Ashley and Jammal have been publicly photographed together. The sighting comes almost a year after Ashley was seen kissing businessman Tim Sykes at the 2025 U.S. Open, another connection she never publicly labeled, and more than a year after she declared herself in her "single era."
The new photographs show Ashley and Jammal walking side by side through Notting Hill on Sunday afternoon before joining hands. PEOPLE described the outing as their first public sighting together. Both were walking dogs, with Ashley carrying a white handbag while Jammal wore jeans, a dark T-shirt and a baseball cap.

US stocks closed mixed on Monday as semiconductor stocks fell and Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent announced "Operation Economic Outcast" — a series of expanded sanctions aimed at squeezing Iran.
The S&P 500 (^GSPC) declined by about 0.3%, and the tech-heavy Nasdaq Composite (^IXIC) dropped roughly 0.8%. The Dow Jones Industrial Average (^DJI) rose by 0.3% as the lone index in the green after the major indexes posted weekly declines.
Investors rotated out of tech names as semiconductor stocks came under pressure. Sandisk (SNDK), Micron (MU), and other memory chip stocks dropped following a report over the weekend that Nvidia (NVDA) plans to raise prices for some of its AI servers.
Stocks were little changed, however, after Bessent outlined a plan to "sever every economic lifeline" to Iran and isolate the nation. In a press conference on Monday afternoon, Bessent detailed expanded sanctions on Iran and on any country that deals economically with it, stating that countries with ties to the regime will be "removed from the US dollar system."
That raised questions about the US's already tenuous relationship with China, which is the primary buyer of Iranian oil. While Bessent declined to discuss the specifics of individual countries, he emphasized that "no one is above the reach of US sanctions."

It's Tuesday night here at BCB After Dark: the grooviest gathering of night owls, early risers, new parents and Cubs fans abroad. We're so glad you decided to stop by. Please come on in and sit with us for a while. There's no cover charge. We have a few tables available. There's a two-drink minimum, but you need to bring your own beverage.
BCB After Dark is the place for you to talk baseball, music, movies, or anything else you need to get off your chest, as long as it is within the rules of the site. The late-nighters are encouraged to get the party started, but everyone else is invited to join in as you wake up the next morning and into the afternoon.
Last night, I asked you if one of the Cubs top prospects, catcher Owen Ayers, should make his major-league debut when the rosters expand on September 1. Most of you were against it, as 74 percent of you said "no."
On that front, the Cubs signed free agent catcher Austin Wynns today. Wynns had been designated for ******* ignment by the Rangers last week. So that gives Iowa a second catcher if the Cubs want to call up Ayers. Or they could call up Wynns, I presume, if they just want a third catcher.
On Tuesday nights, I don't normally do any movie stuff. But I always have time for jazz, so let's take a break for that now.

NEW YORK — Four years ago, ******* ody could have envisioned this.
Not even Serena Williams.
When Williams suffered a third-round defeat at the 2022 US Open, it was expected to mark the end of the 23-time Grand Slam champion's prolific career.
Williams had revealed weeks earlier that she planned to "evolve" away from tennis after that year's tournament at Flushing Meadows. Her three matches there that summer functioned as something of a farewell tour.
It was a bit surreal, then, to see the 44-year-old Williams take the court Tuesday afternoon at Arthur Ashe Stadium alongside Carlos Alcaraz to compete in the mixed doubles tournament at this year's US Open.

NEW YORK - There was some encouraging Yankees pitching news before Tuesday night's three-game series opener against the Houston Astros.
On Monday, lefty Max Fried (elbow bone bruise) tossed four simulated innings (60-pitches) vs. live hitters, putting him in line for activation Saturday, when the Yanks host the Red Sox in a day-night doubleheader.
And earlier Tuesday afternoon, Clarke Schmidt tossed a 20-pitch live BP session at Yankee Stadium, putting him on track to begin a minor league rehab ****** ignment by this weekend.
Yankees pitching coach Matt Blake thought Schmidt (Tommy John surgery rehab, forearm cramp) looked sharp, with some good curveballs and a live fastball.
"The competition was a little weak,'' Blake said with a smile, noting that two Yankees coaches, including Brad Ausmus, were in the batter's box. "But overall the stuff looked sharp.''

Lions host ex-Chiefs, Browns Pro Bowl RB on a free-agent visit originally appeared on The Sporting News. Add The Sporting News as a Preferred Source by clicking here.
The Detroit Lions are going to be relying on Jahmyr Gibbs to lead the backfield with David Montgomery now traded to the Houston Texans.
Gibbs will have a chance to lead the NFL in yards from scrimmage, as his value as a receiver and rusher is extremely high. Behind him, the Lions now have Isaiah Pacheco in the backfield.
But he might not be the only former Kansas City Chiefs RB to join the Lions this offseason. According to ESPN's Adam Schefter, Kareem Hunt was hosted by the Lions on a free-agent visit on Tuesday, August 25.
"Free-agent RB Kareem Hunt visited today with the Detroit Lions," Schefter reported Tuesday afternoon.

With this year's crop of superstar IPO filings, including ***** eX and Anthropic, there has been a greater focus on the role venture capital plays in investors' portfolios. The stage at which promising companies go public has moved much later in their evolution, meaning that investors seeking the outsized returns of betting on the next Apple, Amazon, or ***** eX must do so while the companies are still private.
Traditionally, that has not been an avenue open to many individual investors, as venture capital funds have tended to come with qualified purchaser requirements, hefty investment minimums, 15-plus-year payoff horizons and limited liquidity mechanisms. A new crop of players, however, is promising mass-affluent investors that they can enter the venture capital business as well, often without the need for accreditation or investment minimums. Whether they can succeed in doing so without making investors take on outsized risks relative to returns is an open question.
One of the first companies to launch a venture-capital fund marketed to retail investors was Destiny XYZ Inc. in the spring of 2024. Called Destiny Tech100 (DXYZ), the fund focuses on "late-stage venture-backed companies," with Destiny XYZ viewing them as a more stable investment than fresh start-ups. Destiny Tech100, which today has a market cap of about $1 billion, comes with a 2.5% annual management fee—roughly in line with what a traditional venture capital fund would charge—but requires no accreditation or minimum investment, since it's structured as an exchange-listed closed-end fund (CEF).
Today, the fund lists 36 companies among its holdings, including ***** eX and OpenAI. Over a 52-week period, DXYZ posted total returns of 21.02%. Over the most recent three-month period, its total returns fell by 44.16%, with its shares trading at $32.94 apiece as of Monday afternoon, down from their 52-week high of $72.87 per share.

A screaming buying opportunity may exist in AMD (AMD) after a post-earnings sell-off earlier this month.
Raymond James ******* yst Simon Leopold upgraded his rating on AMD to Strong Buy from Outperform in a new note on Tuesday. He lifted his price target to $641 from $565, which ******* umes neatly 40% upside from current price levels.
The new price target puts Leopold above the average price target of his peers at $613, per Yahoo Finance AlphaSpace data. About 72% of Wall Street ******* ysts that cover AMD rate the stock a Strong Buy or Buy.
AMD stock rose 5% in afternoon trading in response.
Leopold thinks AMD, with its powerful AI chips, will be a key player in the agent-driven workforce. Moreover, he sees the server central processing unit (CPU) market increasing at a 44% five-year compound annual growth rate to about $201 billion by 2030.

The Las Vegas Raiders group of wide receivers are under the microscope this week in the final days before the team is required to set its initial 53-man roster on Sunday afternoon.
Raiders head coach Klint Kubiak recently fueled speculation about the unit last week when he said the group took a step backward in Week 2 of the preseason and it needs players to step up for the regular season. Let's look at where the unit stands:
Safe:
Tre Tucker, Jalen Nailor, Jack Bech.
You can question whether this tope three is good enough to help win games in the regular season. But these players should be part of the mic for sure.

Barcelona's plan with their goalkeeping department is moving quickly, with Dominik Livakovic set to arrive in the city today to complete the final stages of his move to the club.
According to SPORT, the Croatian international is expected to land in Barcelona this afternoon, with the club ready to begin the formal process of bringing their new goalkeeper into the squad.
His medical is scheduled for tomorrow at the Ciutat Esportiva Joan Gamper, after which the remaining details of his Barcelona transfer can be completed.
It must be remembered that despite the signing, Livakovic's arrival raises more questions than answers.
In fact, it opens the most intriguing one: where will he spend the 2026/27 season?

Wesley Bailey had one of the best defensive performances of the 2026 preseason yet. The UDFA out of Louisville earned 10 pressures in Saturday afternoon's contest between the Los Angeles Rams and New Orleans Saints.
But a breakout game doesn't necessarily translate to security on the 53-man roster.
We've seen other Bailey's with the Rams before. 2021 brought Chris Garrett's breakout—and Garrett was drafted by the team whereas Bailey wasn't.

Aug. 24—PULLMAN — Washington State's starting quarterback for this season is in place.
The Cougars will start UC Davis transfer Caden Pinnick, the program announced on social media Monday afternoon, ending a quarterback battle with returners Julian Dugger and Owen Eshelman that spanned from spring practice to fall camp, which wrapped up Sunday evening.
A redshirt sophomore, Pinnick earned the reins thanks to a solid fall camp, in which he earned first-team reps across nearly all 15 practices. He had been atop the Cougs' QB rotation since the first week of practice, showing accuracy and impressive athleticism to scramble from the pocket in 11-on-11 settings.
Pinnick won't get much of an easy runway into his tenure with the Cougs. WSU's season opener is set for Sept. 6 at No. 17 Washington, whose defense limited Pinnick to 8 for 16 passing for 50 yards, one touchdown and one interception in a matchup with UC Davis last season.
Also early on WSU's schedule are games against Big 12 opponents Kansas State and Arizona, the first on the road and the second at home.

The 2026 college football season begins this Saturday with an eight-game Week Zero. That leaves just under two weeks before most programs kick off their seasons. Several teams and their head coaches named their starting quarterbacks on Monday in preparation for Week 1.
Alabama named Keelon Russell its starter on Saturday, while other prominent QB competitions at Clemson, West Virginia, Vanderbilt and Iowa still haven't been decided — at least publicly.
Here are several of the QBs who have been named starters for the season.
The Volunteers are making true freshman Faizon Brandon their starting QB. Head coach Josh Heupel told the team of his decision on Monday morning and officially announced Brandon as the starter in an afternoon press conference.
Brandon, 6-foot-4, beat out sophomore George MacIntyre for the position, clinching the decision with his performance in a scrimmage on Saturday, according to On3. A five-star recruit, Rivals ranked Brandon as the No. 3 QB nationally and No. 10 player overall out of Grimsley High School in Greensboro, North Carolina.

Ryan Blaney is back in victory lane. On Sunday afternoon, Blaney and the No. 12 team for Team Penske won the 2026 Dollar Tree 301 at New Hampshire Motor Speedway. The Team Penske driver was able to hold off a hard-charging Bubba Wallace and Josh Berry in the closing laps.
Following the event, Blaney spoke about his big NASCAR win at New Hampshire, his second in two years.
"Yeah, that made it difficult," Blaney said. "No, it was a good call after our issue on pit road. We did two at the end to try to hopefully get the lead, and we did. It was a long, long run to the end, longest run we had. Just tried to manage my stuff. Knew the four-tire guys would pressure me eventually. Bubba came on hard there. Just tried to manage the lap traffic and manage the tire, not make a mistake. What a cool race. Fun day starting in the rain. Ended up being beautiful day. Everybody came out, thanks for sticking with it."
Blaney is now firmly placed second in the standings, meaning he will enter the Chase as the No. 2 seed if all goes right at Daytona International Speedway. Team Penske has found incredible speed over the last month, and if it continues, he could be in line for a second Cup Series championship this fall.

One Liverpool player felt the wrath of both Andoni Iraola and Virgil van Dijk during the 2-2 draw against Newcastle on Sunday.
Milos Kerkez is now the undisputed first choice at left-back for the Reds after Andy Robertson's summer exit for Tottenham Hotspur, but the Hungarian endured a difficult afternoon at St James' Park.
He was outpaced by Anthony Elanga for the Magpies' opening goal in the first five minutes and struggled to make much of an impact going forward, with his performance criticised by Liverpool Echo reporter Ian Doyle.
In an article for the Liverpool Echo on Monday, that same journalist noted two separate instances involving the 22-year-old which earned him an earful from his head coach and his captain.
Doyle observed how Iraola 'struggled to keep his emotions in check' as Kerkez 'took an eternity' to close down Elanga before conceding a corner kick, with the Basque left remonstrating on the touchline as he was 'not a happy camper – at all'.

Football has a habit of compressing an entire afternoon into a few seconds. At St Andrew's, Bristol City's performance will inevitably be remembered for two of them: one moment of extraordinary invention from Dom Ballard and one raised flag that left Michael Skubala describing the eventual penalty decision as "crazy".
Ballard's goal deserved to win any match. With his back to goal, the substitute met Rio Cardines' cross with an improvised flick that looped beyond James Beadle and into the Birmingham net.
It was audacious, instinctive and almost impossible to defend. The sort of finish that momentarily silences a large home crowd because everybody inside the ground needs a second to understand what they have just seen.
It put City 2–1 ahead with five minutes remaining and appeared to have completed an excellent away performance. Then came the fifth minute of stoppage time, a crowded penalty area and an ******* istant referee convinced that Jason Knight had handled the ball.

There was a number of spectacular goals on show, on Sunday as Celtic FC Women ran out 3-0 winners over Montrose.
In what could have been a frustrating afternoon for the Hoops, Grant Scott's side showcased their quality with three superb strikes late on in the win at their new home in Kirkintilloch.
Casey Howe was the first to get the scoring underway, with her 82nd-minute strike firing the Hoops in front.
It was a special strike from the winger, who grabbed her first in green and white in style, powering an effort home off the underside of the bar.
And that was followed by another sublime strike going in off the underside of the woodwork, this time from Maria McAneny.

Liverpool left St James' Park with a point, and a fresh question. Who is the club's first-choice penalty taker now?
The late spot-kick was the defining moment of a tense afternoon against Newcastle. For most of the game, the home crowd had focused on Alexander Isak, booing him relentlessly. That made the final seconds particularly intriguing. If Liverpool were going to get one chance to save the match, many expected the £125m striker might take it.
He did not.
Instead, Dominik Szoboszlai stepped forward and smashed the penalty past Lukas Hornicek. Clean strike, no drama, no argument once the ball hit the net. Liverpool had their draw, and Newcastle had escaped the scenario they had feared all afternoon.
This is where the discussion starts. Mohamed Salah had been Liverpool's regular penalty taker until his summer exit, and that role is now open. Isak has the profile and status to claim it. Szoboszlai has the technique and, after this, the evidence.

Now that the dust is starting to settle on Saturday's opening-day defeat to Ipswich down at Portman Road, let's take a look at what went wrong and why there's no need to panic.
We've not lost many games under Régis Le Bris, so the feeling after a defeat isn't something we're used to. This is the first time that we have lost our opening league game under Le Bris, and it's never nice to have the sinking feeling that comes with any defeat, but upon reflection on Saturday's game, there's currently nothing to suggest the need to panic.
We started the opening twenty minutes positively, looking to set our stall out early and take control of the game. We also had a great chance after the first five minutes through some quick interplay and an opening for Brian Brobbey, who really ought to have done better with this chance.
We had the better share of possession as we looked to settle into a rhythm. Unfortunately, we were unable to do so all afternoon and, on twenty-five minutes, a mistake from Luke O'Nien led to Julio Enciso nipping in and robbing us on the halfway line.
Some calamitous defending followed, and we were 1-0 down before we knew it. Brobbey also had a golden chance in the second half which he should've buried.

On a scorching afternoon in Madrid, Atlético de Madrid finally got their first weekend home kickoff of the season, with over 60,000 fans packed into the Metropolitano to welcome the Rojiblancos and properly usher in the new campaign against fellow Champions League side Villarreal.
Two penalties, a red card, and a very complicated homecoming later, Atleti walked away with a point they were truthfully fortunate to get.
Let's dive into the takeaways!
Between the heat and a lineup still finding its feet, this always had the makings of a sluggish start. Several of these players are only just back from a shortened summer, still getting reacquainted, and it showed.
For the opening hour, Atleti dominated the shooting charts on paper, outshooting Villarreal 11 to 6. But only two efforts were on target, and the underlying picture told a very different story. Villarreal had 23 touches in Atleti's box to Atleti's 19 in theirs. The visitors also created three big chances in the first half alone, while Atleti created zero. They even out-passed Atleti, 271 to 217. The Rojiblancos were a team going through the motions of control without really controlling anything.

The Los Angeles Rams steamrolled the New Orleans Saints on Saturday afternoon at SoFi Stadium, cruising to a 34-0 win. The Rams didn't play a single starter once again, and even their primary backups were held out of action as a precaution before Week 1.
Interestingly, several other players who may have been flirting with the roster bubble were also kept on the sidelines after playing in the first game last week against the Chiefs. For some, it's a sign that they've all but secured a roster spot, but it's not guaranteed that all five will make the team.
Smith played a lot in the preseason opener, and he stood out as both a receiver and returner. It may have been enough for the coaching staff to feel good about him as their punt returner and backup receiver. It's likely that the team held him out to avoid any potential injury, given the role he's expected to play this season.
Smith was always likely to make the team thanks to his return skills, and his performance in the first preseason game probably locked up his roster spot.
Limmer played 63% of the snaps in the opener against the Chiefs but didn't see the field at all on Saturday. That's a good sign for the third-year lineman, who was likely to make the team anyway. He offers great versatility at guard and center, and the Rams may need him if Justin Dedich takes extra time to get up to speed after missing the entire summer due to a hand injury suffered at home in July.

Manchester City rescued a late win at the Etihad this afternoon, coming from behind to score an 85th-minute equaliser and a 92nd-minute winner to ****** all three points.
Marcus Tavernier opened the scoring for Bournemouth before the half-hour mark, when he found himself in plenty of ****** e in the area before firing home.
Marc Guéhi headed home the leveller for City late in the day, making up for a guilt-edged miss earlier in the match. However, the real headlines were written by Josko Gvardiol, who broke free in the box in injury time and slotted into the bottom corner to win the match for City.
Enzo Maresca made two changes to his starting XI this afternoon, following his side's 3-0 defeat to ****** nal in the Community Shield last weekend. Those changes saw Rico Lewis and Guéhi replace Jérémy Doku and Mateo Kovacic, whilst a new-look Erling Haaland made a landmark 200th appearance for The Citizens.
Meanwhile, Marco Rose's first Bournemouth side featured plenty of familiar faces, with António Silva the only Summer arrival in from the off.
