Alexander Zverev has continued a long-running theme in men's tennis by emerging victorious at the US Open.
Zverev edged out Ben Shelton in the final of the hard-court Grand Slam in New York, winning their clash in five sets.
And with his impressive US Open run, the German has just completed a clean sweep for European players in the 2026 men's Grand Slam season.
He also won the French Open, while his fellow Europeans Carlos Alcaraz and Jannik Sinner won the Australian Open and Wimbledon respectively.
In fact, the ATP records must go back a full 17 years to find the last Grand Slam champion who wasn't born in Europe; Juan Martin del Potro.

A prisoner's premature baby died in hospital a day after he was born by emergency Caesarean section, an inquest has heard.
Orion Homer was born at 01:06 on 15 October 2023 at Royal Derby Hospital at 34 weeks plus five days gestation and died the following day.
An inquest at Derby Coroner's Court heard his mother Ellen Roberts was a prisoner at HMP Foston Hall and was taken to the hospital on 14 October after she raised concerns about reduced foetal movement.
Orion was "gravely unwell and very pale" when he was born and needed CPR and breathing support, the inquest heard.
Roberts had spent some of her pregnancy in prison in June and July 2023, before she was released at the end of July but recalled back on 10 October, the jury inquest heard.

Sept 14 (Reuters) - Hollywood designer Bob Mackie, known for making stars such as Cher and ‌Elton John sparkle, died on Monday at ‌87, according to a post on his official Instagram account.
His career spanned five decades and included designing a Barbie doll clothes collection.
Born in 1939 into a middle-class family in Monterey Park, California, he was nominated for ‌more than 30 ⁠Emmys, winning nine. He received Academy Award nominations for costumes worn in ⁠the films "Lady Sings the Blues," "Funny Lady," and "Pennies From Heaven."
"His genius and extraordinary designs will live on forever, continuing to bring beauty into this world," his ‌team said in an Instagram post. His cause of death was not stated.
Mackie was known for sequins, rhinestones and glitter, but also humor. The highlight of his 11-year run for The Carol ‌Burnett Show was the "curtain dress" worn by Burnett in a sketch parodying 1939 film classic "Gone with the Wind." ‌The costume, now in the collection of the Smithsonian's American History Museum, included a brass curtain rod balanced on Burnett's shoulders and a bit ‌of valance worn as a hat.

Bob Mackie had strong feelings about Kim Kardashian wearing Marilyn Monroe's historic dress.
The legendary fashion designer, whose death was announced Sept. 14 at age 87, sketched the original design at the start of his career while working as an ***** istant to French-born costumer Jean Louis.
Monroe made American history in 1962 when she wore the nude shimmering gown during her performance of "Happy Birthday" for then-President John F. Kennedy. The dress and her serenade were never forgotten.
So much so that 60 years later in 2022, Kardashian worked with the owner of the dress, Ripley's Believe It or Not! museum, to wear the bling-encrusted gown to the Met Gala, acknowledging that she slimmed down dramatically to fit into it.
Mackie called Kardashian's wearing of the skin-tight gown a "big mistake," telling Entertainment Weekly that Monroe was "a goddess. A crazy goddess, but a goddess." He went on to describe her as "just fabulous," noting that the dress "was designed for her."

Catherine Zeta-Jones spoke out against the "nepo baby" label, calling it "horrific" and saying her children "didn't ask to be born into this." The actress has two children, Dylan Douglas, 26, and Carys Zeta Douglas, 23, with her husband, Michael Douglas, who are pursuing their own acting careers.
In an interview with The Sunday Times, the 56-year-old Welsh actress said, "They're plugging away," adding, "My daughter wanted to be Amal Clooney for a while. But you have to go with your dreams, your passion."
The actress, known for her roles in The Mask of Zorro and Chicago, said, "It's hard for them to forge a way forward on their own. This horrific phrase 'nepo baby' is horrible because these kids didn't ask to be born into this; they're finding their own way in life. But they love it, and they're good. Otherwise, Michael and I would be the first to go, 'You know what? Maybe law school looks really good.'"
Catherine got her first major break in 1987 when she joined the West End production of 42nd Street. She went on to achieve widespread recognition in the UK after joining the cast of The Darling Buds of May in 1991.
The actress told the outlet, "Until I had my own kids, I didn't realise the pressure, how big that was for a young adult – well, a teenager." She added, "I had a sniff of the joy of being in the theatre so young. I went, 'I want to do this. I can't imagine going through school and A-levels in Swansea.'"

Legendary music and film fashion and costume designer Bob Mackie died Monday at the age of 87. His team confirmed his passing on his official Instagram page. The cause of death is still unconfirmed.
"It is with a heavy heart that we share the news that Mr. Bob Mackie passed away today," the post announced. "He lived his 87 years to the fullest, fulfilling his dream of being a Fashion and Costume Designer, which is all he ever wanted to do. His genius and extraordinary designs will live on forever, continuing to bring beauty into this world."
Born in 1939 in Monterey Park, California, Mackie is best known for designing iconic costumes for musical stars like Cher, Elton John, Diana Ross and Barbra Streisand. He was raised throughout most of his youth by his maternal grandparents after his parents divorced when he was just two years old. He eventually began living with his father after he moved to Rosemead, California, where he attended Rosemead High School.
Mackie left Chouinard Art Institute early after he was hired to sketch for Frank Thompson at Paramount Studios. He spent part of the early 1960s working at the studio as an ****** istant designer under Ray Aghayan. He scored his first big break when Mitzi Gaynor hired him to create the costumes for her Las Vegas Revue. He continued to be a go-to collaborator for Gaynor over the years and raked in Emmys for his contributions to her 1976 and 1978 TV specials.
He became even more well-known in the Hollywood scene in the late 1960s and through the late 1970s for his work as the costume designer for "The Carol Burnett Show," which asked him to design upwards of 50 costumes a week. It was on the set of that iconic sketch variety series that Mackie met Cher. He went on to serve as the costume designer for "The Sonny & Cher Comedy Hour" and continued to design pieces for the star in the decades that followed.

Aran Murphy had his first viral moment. After hitting the red carpet for his new show, Youth, social media users pointed out how similar the 19-year-old up-and-coming actor's mannerisms are to those of Oscar winner Cillian Murphy, Aran's father. "I knew who his dad was before I even heard him," adds one commenter underneath Aran's video interview, which took place on September 11.
Aran has a big year ahead, with a number of projects set to hit the small and big screen. Keep scrolling to get to know Cillian's sons, Aran and Malachy, whom he shares with his wife, artist Yvonne McGuinness. Though Cillian famously avoids the spotlight, he's shared several details about his family life and his son's career over the years.
Aran is Cillian's youngest son, born in July 2007. After spending the first few years of his life in London, Aran moved with his family to Dublin in 2015, per The Telegraph.

Aran caught the acting bug early. He was 11 years old when he made his acting debut in the one-boy play Hamnet — not to be confused with the award-winning 2025 film. Cillian praised Aran's approach to acting during an interview with The Guardian.

Liam Brady signed the Dublin born winger from Bangor, having been impressed with his terrific form with the Northern Irish side. Form that saw him scoop each of the club's four player of the year awards in a season they won the domestic cup, with Paul himself scoring in the final.
Paul had started his professional career in England with Oxford United, but his time at the U's was by all accounts a disaster, so he decided to up-sticks, and head back nearer to home in a bid to reinvent himself.
It worked, as he was soon a Celtic player, the stuff of dreams for any Dublin youngster, especially with Irish legend Brady in charge of the Hoops, and despite the club being in turmoil on and off the park, it was great honour and opportunity for the 20 year old Byrne.

Founded in 1977 and headquartered in South Korea, LX Pantos has grown into a global logistics provider spanning freight forwarding, contract logistics, e-commerce fulfillment, last-mile delivery and installation, and supply chain management consulting. The company now operates more than 380 locations worldwide with a workforce of approximately 8,500 employees, moving more than 1.6 million TEUs of ocean freight and over 120,000 tons of air freight annually. In 2025, LX Pantos recorded revenue of approximately $5.85 billion.
For President and CEO Lee Yong-ho, those figures mark a foundation rather than a destination.
"Since **** uming the role of CEO, I have set a clear vision for LX Pantos: to build the company into a 'Korea-born, global logistics company,' and we have been pursuing that goal with unwavering commitment," Lee said.
That vision marks a departure from the model that carried LX Pantos for decades on domestic corporate freight volumes.
"For many years, LX Pantos grew rapidly by leveraging freight volumes from domestic corporate customers. However, we have also recognized that growth driven primarily by the domestic market has its limitations," Lee said. "It is now time for LX Pantos to evolve into a truly global logistics company — one that is not confined to any single country or customer segment, but is capable of delivering comprehensive logistics solutions to customers worldwide."

Catherine Zeta-Jones is not a fan of the label "nepo baby." In fact, she loathes it.
The Oscar-winning actress branded the term "horrific" in an interview with The Times of Britain, saying that her children Dylan, 26, and Carys, 23 – whom she shares with husband Michael Douglas – are working hard to carve out their own paths in the entertainment industry, despite having globally famous parents.
"It's hard for them to forge a way forward on their own," the 56-year-old told the newspaper, as she attempted to defend their respective acting careers, noting that they were both "plugging away."
"This horrific phrase 'nepo baby' is horrible because these kids didn't ask to be born into this, they're finding their own way in life," she said. Son Dylan is pursuing a career in acting, while daughter Carys is an aspiring director.
The buzzword "nepo baby" is short for nepotism, the practice of favoring friends and family members for job roles. The label has long sparked debate in Hollywood and beyond, with some angrily calling out the offspring of famous celebrities, claiming they have been handed their careers on a platter and that they are undeserving of fame and fortune.

Something strange is currently happening with interest rates and inflation.
The United States Federal Funds Rate -- essentially the price banks charge each other to borrow money overnight -- currently sits at 3.75%. The rate has remained at 3.75% throughout 2026.
Missed Nvidia in 2009? This Rare Signal Is Flashing Again. In 2009, a "Double Down" signal flashed for a little-known chipmaker called Nvidia. For the first time in years, that same "Total Conviction" signal is flashing for a company 1/100th the size of Nvidia. Continue »
For much of 2023 and 2024, the Fed Funds Rate was pegged at 5.5% to battle stubbornly high inflation. As inflation fears eased, the rate was gradually lowered to today's 3.75% level.
Despite a low and stable Fed Funds Rate, however, mortgage interest rates have begun to climb. According to the Wall Street Journal, average U.S. mortgage rates have climbed to a 15-month high of nearly 7%. Treasury yields, meanwhile, are approaching multi-year highs.

The Federal Reserve's policy committee is expected to raise its key interest rate for the first time since 2023.
Fed officials face pressure to raise rates to combat stubbornly high inflation that has run above target since 2021.
A rate hike could provoke a response from President Donald Trump, who has demanded that the central bank reduce interest rates.
Federal Reserve officials meet Wednesday to plot the next move in their campaign to keep prices stable, and fresh data shows inflation is far from vanquished.
Fed officials are widely expected to raise the central bank's fed funds rate to combat inflation, increasing it a quarter-point to a range of 3.75% to 4% in the first rate hike since 2023. Financial markets are pricing in an 86% chance of a rate hike according to the CME Group's FedWatch tool, which forecasts rate movements based on fed funds futures trading data.

Saffie Osborne became the first female jockey to win a British Classic horse race while riding Highwayman in the St Leger on Saturday.
Highwayman, trained by Joseph O'Brien, was priced 11-1 and finished ahead of Enceladus and Amelia Earhart.
"I didn't have this on the bingo card for this week," Osborne told ITV Racing. "I didn't have a ride in the race on Monday morning, let alone one with a chance, and I can't thank so many people enough."
The St Leger, in its 250th year, is the world's oldest Classic. Osborne's historic moment follows Rachael Blackmore, who was the first female jockey to win the Grand National in 2021.
Osborne was handed the spare ride on Highwayman as reward for an impressive season. She moved into contention as the runners entered the long Doncaster straight.

The economy, inflation and how those forces could impact the lives of Americans were front and center over the past week. Trips to the grocery store and gas station are more painful than they were last year, and rising costs are impacting the decisions of both households and businesses.
Here's a snapshot of prominent economic data and news that occurred over the past week and what it potentially means for you.
U.S. inflation accelerated last month as gas prices spiked in the wake of renewed fighting in the Middle East, underscoring the affordability challenges that are top of mind for many voters as midterm elections near.
The Labor Department said Friday that the consumer price index rose 3.4% last month compared with a year ago, the same as in July. But on a monthly basis, inflation accelerated, as costs jumped 0.4% from July to August, up from an increase of just 0.1% the previous month.
The figures show that inflation remains stubbornly elevated, more than five years after prices first soared as the economy emerged from the COVID pandemic. Persistent inflation has presented a major challenge for the inflation-fighters at the Federal Reserve and has soured many voters on the Trump administration's economic management.

The UConn Huskies (1-1) struggled to stay above water in their 38-14 loss to the Maryland Terrapins (2-0).
Paving the way for Connecticut, quarterback Kalieb Osborne completed 10 of 21 (41.7%) passes for 156 yards and two touchdowns. Osborne also led with 62 rushing yards, while running back Kenji Christian posted 21 yards. In the air, Shamar Porter paved the way with 62 receiving yards and an end zone appearance. JD Willoughby followed with 36 yards and a touchdown. Defensively, cornerback Zion Paret racked up 12 tackles (six solo) and K'Von Sherman tallied nine (four solo).
As for Maryland, Malik Washington landed 34 of 41 (82.9%) throws for 347 yards and two touchdowns. In the backfield, running backs Iverson Howard and Harry Dalton III rushed for 57 yards and crossed the goal line three times. At wide receiver, Na'eem Abdul-Rahim Gladding led with 130 yards and a touchdown. Behind him, Chris Durr Jr. registered 103 yards and a touchdown. Defensively, linebackers Sidney Stewart and Carlton Smith recorded six tackles and Stewart earning a sack.
"There weren't any adverse moments in our first football game. This is a whole different animal," Head Coach Jason Candle said. "They were going to try and lean on us and run the ball down your throat; play up in the face of your receiver. They're going to play pressure-style defense and we're going to figure out how we're going to respond."
To kick off the game, UConn and Maryland traded end zone appearances. With just under five minutes remaining in the opening quarter, Connecticut struck first. After forcing a quick three-and-out, the Terrapins punted from their 14-yard line. Wide receiver Julian Allen's 18-yard return spotted the ball at Maryland's 32-yard line, but a 15-yard unsportsmanlike conduct penalty backed it up to the 47-yard line.

Roberto Mancini was in the stands at the Stade Jean-Bouin to monitor the progress of two potential Italy internationals as Paris FC hosted Lyon.
According to L'Équipe, the Italy boss travelled to the French capital specifically to watch defender Diego Coppola and forward Luca Koleosho, both of whom started for the hosts. The pair have been capped twice each at senior level for the Azzurri.

Paris FC now carry a distinctly Italian flavour after Coppola arrived permanently from Brighton this summer, while Koleosho completed his own switch from Burnley, having spent the second half of last season on loan at the club. Ciro Immobile was also on the books up until his retirement in the summer.
Koleosho, born in Norwalk, Connecticut, to a Nigerian father and an Italian-Canadian mother, is eligible for the United States, Canada and Nigeria but has committed to Italy, whom he first represented at senior level in June.

The White Sox beat the Cleveland Blues, 12-4, in Chicago to clinch the franchise's first pennant. (The American League would not be recognized as an official major league until 1901, however.) Roy Patterson got the win in the game.
The season seemed to set the tone for the franchise, with exceptional pitching and defense — and just enough hitting to win games. Cleveland manager Jimmy McAleer said as much after the Sox clinched against his club: "It's the strangest thing that ever happened. A club with no good batsman to win a flag! Why, such a thing was never heard of before. [Dick] Padden has done most of it. He has been the whole works, and has shown himself a born general. The pitchers did the rest, with special credit to that lad Patterson."
Brett Ballantini devoted an episode of South Side Sox's Flashback to this win, back in 2019.
1908
Ultimately, the White Sox did not prevail for the pennant, but don't say they didn't put up a fight. Arriving at Detroit's Bennett Park for a five-game set against the first-place Tigers and behind by three games, the White Sox won the opener, then played four consecutive extra-inning games to finish out the series, splitting them. On this day, the White Sox got back to just two games out with a 2-1 victory in 10 innings. Frank Smith not only went the distance for his 12th win on the season, he singled in the game-winner in the top of the 10th.
The White Sox continued a three-way fight for the pennant (with Cleveland as well), and the season came down to the last day, hosting Detroit. Had the White Sox not been blown out in the finale, they would have finished tied with (but percentage points ahead of) Cleveland and a half-game in front of the Tigers for the pennant.

Missouri's Eli Drinkwitz blasts KU's Civil War-themed hype video after Border War win: 'We left Kansas bleeding again' originally appeared on The Sporting News. Add The Sporting News as a Preferred Source by clicking here.
Few hype videos in recent college football history proved as eye-catching as Kansas' latest, released days before the Jayhawks took on rival Missouri in "The Border War."
The video referenced the region's precarious history, likening the actions of Missouri-based pro-slavery forces to villains compared to Kansas-born abolitionists like John Brown.
The Tigers answered the call on the field, downing the Jayhawks 38-21 on Friday night. Shortly after the game went final, Missouri head coach Eli Drinkwitz had his say about the polarizing video, which garnered millions of views ahead of the tilt.

Lady Gaga spent years saying motherhood was the role she wanted most. She has now become a parent without making a public announcement.
The 40-year-old singer and her fiancé, Michael Polansky, have welcomed their first child together, according to TMZ. The news emerged after Gaga and Polansky were photographed in Northern California with a newborn.
No name, **** or exact date of birth has been made public. Gaga and Polansky also have not shared their own announcement about becoming parents, and representatives for the singer did not comment when contacted by reporters.
Keeping the milestone private follows a pattern for the couple. Polansky proposed in April 2024, but the engagement remained out of public view until Gaga introduced him as her fiancé during the Paris Olympics several months later.
Page Six obtained photographs of Gaga and Polansky with the baby during an outing in Northern California. Gaga carried the infant against her chest while Polansky walked beside her.
