Former Sydney Swans coach John Longmire has opened up on his regret for not doing more to support Adam Goodes in the final years of his career, as the two-time Brownlow medallist faced “diabolical, almost unforgivable” treatment.

WTA event win earns 21-year-old a presidential reception in the Philippines as interest in tennis surges in home country

The Philippines has been swept up in tennis fever after 21-year-old rising star Alex Eala delivered a historic win, drawing praise from the president who hosted a reception in her honour.

On Monday, Eala became the first player from the Philippines to win a Women’s Tennis Association (WTA) Tour-level singles title.

Monken revealed that Sanders and Watson will each start a preseason game, with the next week determining who starts on August 15th at Chicago and who starts the August 22nd home game against the Bills. The likely leader will then start the final preseason game on August 27th against the Patriots.

Watson has played only 19 games since arriving in Cleveland in 2022 and hasn't played since October 2024 due to twice tearing his Achilles. Meanwhile, Sanders earned Pro Bowl honors as a rookie despite starting just seven games, completing 56.6% of his passes for 1,400 yards with seven touchdowns and ten interceptions.

Eagles defensive end A.J. Epenesa declined to discuss the 'weird situation' with the Browns after his deal fell through due to physical concerns. Speaking to reporters on Tuesday, Epenesa expressed happiness to be with the Eagles.

'Cleveland, you know, it was a weird situation,' Epenesa told reporters. 'But I don't necessarily want to go back and talk on that in just a weird sense but I'll just leave that in the past and just be happy that I'm not a Brown and that I'm an Eagle.' Epenesa confirmed he is 'very healthy' and feeling good, noting his Eagles contract pays less ($1.402 million) than the Browns deal would have.

The Rangers edged the Giants 5-4 in a nail‑biter that kept fans on the edge of their seats. A late rally and clutch pitching helped seal the victory.

The win could bolster the Rangers' position in the standings and keep their postseason aspirations alive.
