That match ended in controversy after interference from Morgan's Judgement Day stablemates, Raquel Rodriguez and Roxanne Perez, helped Morgan retain.

Colo Colo's young forward, Leandro Hernández, became one of the biggest surprises in the Chile National Team squad for the North American tour, where they will face Canada, the United States, and Mexico. After establishing himself with the 'Cacique,' the attacker will receive his first call-up to the senior team.
Speaking with Arturo Vidal, the young Alba talent said he is ready for the challenge. "I feel prepared because I think I've improved a lot, especially physically; I used to struggle in physical battles, and today I'm better," said the Colo Colo standout.
Looking ahead to the upcoming matches, Hernández sent a message to coach Nicolás Córdova about his ideal position: he made it clear that he prefers to play centrally as an attacking midfielder rather than out wide, seeking more contact with the ball.

It has not been smooth sailing for Alexander Zverev at the U.S. Open.

While Zverev's girlfriend, Sophia Thomalla, isn't as active on social media as she used to be, she made several posts showing she was with Zverev in New York before the tournament began and is probably still there while he plays through the tournament.

Top seed Alexander Zverev picked up the pace at the US Open on Saturday, virtually sprinting to a 6-2, 7-6 (7/2), 6-2 victory over Alejandro Tabilo to reach the last 16 after laboring through a pair of marathon five-setters.
The German had already spent nine hours and 26 minutes on court in his first two matches -- the most time a top seed has needed to reach the third round of a major since 1999.
The French Open champion appeared on a mission to end the trend against 25th-seeded Chilean Tabilo, who fell to Zverev in the second round last year on the same Arthur Ashe Stadium court.
Zverev didn't face a break point in a brutally efficient first set, winning all 11 points behind his first serve and five of seven on his second serve.
He broke Tabilo twice on the way to pocketing the set in 38 minutes, and broke him again on the way to a 4-2 lead in the second.

Taylor Fritz was unable to explain how he let a two-set lead slip against Argentina's Francisco Cerundolo as he became one of six top-10 seeds to be eliminated from the men's draw in the first week of the US Open.
The American ninth seed was in complete control and went an early break up in the third set, only for 24th seed Cerundolo to produce a shock 3-6 4-6 6-3 6-4 6-4 win to reach the fourth round.
Less than an hour later, fifth seed Flavio Cobolli of Italy fell to a 7-6 (7-4) 3-6 0-6 3-6 defeat by Belgium's Alexander Blockx, opening up the men's draw even further.
However, German top seed Alexander Zverev did survive. The French Open champion won 6-2 7-6 (7-2) 6-2 against Chilean 25th seed Alejandro Tabilo to move into the last 16.
"I don't even know what to say," Fritz said. "I don't really want to talk to anybody, see anybody.

FIA president Mohammed Ben Sulayem is optimistic that Argentina could return to the World Rally Championship calendar in the near future.
The South American nation has a rich history in the WRC, featuring regularly on the calendar from 1980 to 2019 with only 1995 and 2010 being its only absentees from the series.
COVID-19 ultimately dropped it off the calendar and when the WRC returned to the continent in 2023 with a round in Chile, the championship has remained in South America ever since.
Last year it even added a second South American round with Paraguay signing an initial three year deal and the event is located near to the Argentina border in Encarnacion.
Paraguay held its second edition last weekend and has proved to be a popular addition as it won the 'best rally of the year award' for 2025 and Motorsport.com understands that both events are involved in discussions to renew their contracts.

If Jordan Chiles is planning to return to elite gymnastics competition, she is pulling out all the stops.
Chiles, whose last elite gymnastics competition was the 2024 Paris Olympics, made a social media post captioned, "LA 2028... WHY NOT?" with a video narrated by Michael Jordan.
"Why again?" Michael Jordan says in the video. "Because the dream is still there. Why continue? Because there's still more to give. Why now? Because not every chapter ends when people expect it to. Why her? Because she's that girl. Some decisions don't need permission. Just one more bet on herself. So when the world asks why she's back for a third time, the answer is simple."
The video ends with Chiles saying, "Why not?" and then flashing an LA 2028 grill.
Chiles, who was named after Michael Jordan, has owned more than 100 pairs of Jordan shoes. The basketball legend also messaged Chiles before the Paris Games to wish her luck.

The 2026 high school cross country season has arrived, and the boys' division is loaded with talent and potential.
Top teams to keep an eye on include Chiles, Leon, Lincoln, and Maclay.
The Timberwolves feature plenty of quality and depth after they placed third in the FHSAA State Finals. Florida State signee Joshua Hicks (14:49) and returnee Jonathan Kiros (15:21) placed third and fourth respectively.
The Lions should be super motivated after missing out on state last year and picking up some of the top incoming freshmen in the area.
The Trojans have a strong core group, but will need to stay healthy and focused. And Maclay's top runners expect to help motivate a solid group.

Royal Gold (NASDAQ:RGLD) posted second-quarter 2026 results on August 6, and the numbers show a company operating at a different scale than a year ago. Revenue reached $451 million, operating cash flow hit a record $335 million, and net income landed at $236 million, gains of 115%, 119%, and 79% over the same period last year. Yet management still spent the quarter buying back shares, arguing the market has not caught up to what the portfolio is worth.
The strongest signal in the quarter is diversification. No single royalty or stream contributed more than 13% of revenue, and only two **** ets crossed 10%, a direct result of the 2025 acquisitions management had promised would spread out risk. Adjusted net income came to $218 million, or $2.56 per share, up 41% year-over-year, and executives pointed to gains in GEOs per share, adjusted EBITDA per share, operating cash flow per share, and EPS as proof the 2025 deals are accretive rather than dilutive.
Capital returns backed that up. Royal Gold paid $40 million in dividends at an annualized rate of $1.90 per share, 6% higher than a year earlier, and repurchased 147,000 shares for $30 million during the quarter. At the same time, the company repaid $200 million on its revolver, followed by another $75 million in July, with a further $100 million planned for mid-August, and management expects the balance fully repaid in the fourth quarter. Total available liquidity stood at $1.2 billion at quarter end.
The same quarter that produced record cash flow also produced record costs. Depreciation, depletion, and amortization expense jumped to $96 million from $31 million a year earlier, or $962 per GEO compared with $487 per GEO, driven largely by higher carrying values from the Kansanshi stream and the Sandstorm and Horizon **** ets picked up in 2025. General and administrative expense rose to $13.4 million for the quarter, and the company now expects full-year G&A to land near the top of its $50 million to $60 million guidance range. Interest expense climbed to $10 million from $1.5 million, a byproduct of carrying a larger revolver balance for part of the year.
Part of the headline growth was not repeatable. Royal Gold recognized $22 million of incremental revenue this quarter from an advanced delivery of 5,000 ounces tied to the Relief Canyon settlement, pulling forward 1,175 ounces originally scheduled through 2027 and concentrating them into the first half of 2026. Severe winter weather in Chile also caused temporary disruptions at both Andacollo and Caserones, though neither operator has changed full-year guidance.

Chilean forward Alexis Sanchez, a former Barcelona and ******* nal star, has signed with CF Montreal through at least the 2027 season, the Major League Soccer club announced on Tuesday.
The 37-year-old winger, a two-time Copa America champion with Chile, has also made stops at Manchester United, Inter Milan and Marseille and spent last season with La Liga side Sevilla.
"I'm very happy to join CF Montreal and take on this new challenge," Sanchez said. "I'm grateful to the club for the confidence they've shown in me and I'm eager to put my experience to work so that we can reach our objectives and create memorable moments for our supporters."
With four wins and four draws from 18 MLS matches, Montreal sits 14th in the 15-team Eastern Conference and are third-worst in the league overall with only Atlanta and Kansas City trailing.
CF Montreal senior director Luca Saputo hopes the deal, which has a club option for the 2027-28 season, will begin a turnaround for the Canadian club.

Aug 10 (Reuters) - Charl Schwartzel found an unusual hazard in the final round at LIV Golf Bedminster on Sunday when a fish appeared to swallow his ball after it rolled into the water beside the seventh green.
The South African's tee shot at the 134-yard, par-three hole rolled off the putting surface and settled in the pond, where TV footage showed the ball being ******* ed from beneath the water.
"Have you ever seen anything like this?" LIV Golf wrote in a social media post accompanying video of the incident.
The former Masters champion had to take a one-stroke penalty and settled for a bogey on the hole. He finished two-over par at the tournament, which was won by Chilean Joaquin Niemann.

The World Cup is football's biggest stage, filled with goals, drama and unforgettable moments - but it can also prove to be the ultimate shop window.
World Cup heroics have transformed players' lives in the past, and Vozinha's recent move to Chilean side Colo-Colo after an impressive tournament with Cape Verde is the latest reminder that the competition still has the power to change careers.
At the age of 40, the goalkeeper's journey from the Portuguese second division to Chile's biggest club may be unique, but he is not the first to get a big move after starring on the global stage.
Here are some of the players whose standout performances at the World Cup earned them a big move.

ATLANTA (AP) — The U.S. men's national team will kick off the next World Cup cycle with four matches over 11 days on home soil.
The friendlies include games against Peru, Chile, Mexico and Canada in U.S. cities that didn't host World Cup action this summer.
The Americans will face Peru on Sept. 26 at Inter.co Stadium in Orlando, Florida. Three days later, they will host Chile at Energizer Park in St. Louis. The US-Mexico rivalry resumes Oct. 3 at State Farm Stadium in Glendale, Arizona. And the finale against Canada follows three days later at Allianz Field in St. Paul, Minnesota.
All four matches will be broadcast on TNT, HBO Max, Telemundo, Universo and Peacock.
The games come on the heels of the U.S. team's run to the round of 16 at the World Cup. They also will serve as the first action since U.S. head coach Mauricio Pochettino agreed to a new deal that puts him under contract through 2030.

Nearly two years after the Paris Olympics bronze medal dispute between Romania's Ana Barbosu and American gymnast Jordan Chiles, the case is headed back to the CAS. After Switzerland's Federal Supreme Court ordered a fresh hearing, Romania initially faced uncertainty over funding its legal defense. Those concerns have now been resolved after Parliament approved an amendment allowing the COSR to finance the country's representation before CAS.
Following the development, Barbosu shared a message thanking those who made Romania's legal defense possible.
"Thank you very much for the support and efforts made to make it possible to represent the Romanian side before the court in Lausanne. I always remain confident that the state fights for its most trusted ambassadors, the athletes." (Translated from Romanian into English using Google Translate).
Interestingly, the post was issued in the wake of weeks of doubt regarding Romania's participation in the reopened arbitration. In January, the original Court of Arbitration for Sport decision was overturned in part, and the case sent back for a new hearing, due to the new evidence presented by USA Gymnastics determining whether it is possible that Jordan Chiles' score inquiry was submitted within the required one-minute period.
When the case was brought back to CAS in Lausanne, the Romanian Gymnastics Federation estimated that defending Bărbosu's Olympic bronze medal would cost around 250,000 Swiss francs for lawyers, expert opinions, translations, a procedural fee and other legal costs. At that time, COSR stated that it had resources on hand, but under current laws, it was not legally able to use public funds for legal representation in international sports conflicts.

SANTIAGO, Chile (AP) — Vozinha, the 40-year-old goalkeeper who made history with Cape Verde at the recently concluded World Cup, arrived in Chile on Sunday to join Colo Colo after a series of twists and turns that put his move in doubt.
"I'm very happy to be here. And I want to thank the fans for the patience they've shown while waiting for me," the Cape Verde star told reporters in Chile. "See you at the Monumental Stadium." That is Colo Colo's home ground in Santiago.
Colo Colo, Chile's most successful soccer club, announced the signing of Josimar Évora Dias, better known as Vozinha, on July 24. However, a series of setbacks — including documentation issues and personal matters — delayed his arrival on three separate occasions, causing concern both within and outside the club.
At last, he arrived at Santiago's airport at 8:35 p.m. local time and was welcomed by a huge crowd of supporters who gathered at the terminal with flags, banners, drums, and chants.
Vozinha became the oldest player to appear in a national team's debut game at the World Cup and was widely celebrated for keeping eventual champion Span scoreless.

NEW YORK (AP) — Ancient mummy DNA recovered in Chile has yielded the firmest evidence yet that European colonization brought smallpox to the Americas.
Smallpox was one of the deadliest diseases in human history before it was eradicated in 1980, largely thanks to vaccination. For centuries, the virus had killed about one-third of the people it infected and left most survivors with deep and sometimes disfiguring scars.
Outbreaks struck Asia and Europe and eventually spread to the Americas, where colonial writings, administrative records and missionary reports documented how it killed millions and devastated Indigenous populations who had never been exposed to the virus.
Now there's scientific evidence for the spread: An ******* ysis of Chilean mummies provides the strongest genetic link yet to the virus as it existed outside of the Americas, and provides a better picture of how it reached remote populations through colonization, said geneticist Shigeki Nakagome with Trinity College Dublin.
In the new study, Nakagome and colleagues examined 13 bone samples previously collected from an archaeological site at Camarones, in northern Chile.
