Murray lost a marathon encounter with the Czech player but has seemingly left America with a more significant issue. During the 10th game of the final set, Murray collapsed to the floor after he hurt his ankle when racing towards the net. The 36-year-old, who is set to retire from tennis later this year, has now confirmed the severity of his injury with both his Anterior Talo-Fubular ligament (ATFL) and Calcaneofibular ligament (CFL) ruptured.

It is still a mystery why one of England's best players walked out on the team midway through the last World Cup and hasn't represented his country ever since. Ben White has never publicly said why. Meanwhile, he's continued to excel in Arsenal's defense and, as one of the Premier League's top players, remains on the radar of England manager Gareth Southgate. Yet last week, Southgate said White was still making himself unavailable for England, and was seemingly ruling himself out of the European

Max Domi lined up for a faceoff in Washington, looked over at Alex Ovechkin and thought, “Wow, that’s going to be the greatest goal-scorer of all time.” Then he looked over at Auston Matthews and realized his Toronto teammate could be in that discussion too.

Scoring 70 would require a goal-a-game tear down the stretch, which isn't out of the realm of possibility by any means, but the U.S.-

Right-hander Phil Bickford was released by the New York Mets on Tuesday after clearing waivers, the second major league player cut loose this month after winning in salary arbitration. The 28-year-old reliever will receive $217,742 in termination pay rather than the $900,000 salary chosen by a three-person panel over the Mets' $815,000 offer. Under baseball's collective bargaining agreement, salaries determined in arbitration are not guaranteed.

LOS ANGELES (AP) — Dodgers star Shohei Ohtani said Monday he never bet on sports and interpreter Ippei Mizuhara stole money from him and told lies.

Zach Hyman was never — not once — the best player on his team. Or the fastest. Or the one with the most skill. That didn't matter. Hyman was focused on things he could control. His work ethic, his relentless drive, an engine that never seems to quit. "I haven't had the easiest journey," said the Edmonton Oilers winger. "Nobody thought I would continue to progress." Hyman has not only progressed — he's now in elite NHL company. The Toronto native selected with the 123rd pick at the 2010 draft sco

The Leafs led 25-10 on the shot clock after 20 minutes, but trailed 2-1 against one of the NHL's most dangerous teams off the rush. With the home side's structure in tatters coming out of the intermission, the Devils capita
