Nothing’s going Cobolli’s way at the moment, as he thwacks his own leg with his racket while trying to hit the ball, as he’s taken to deuce once more on his serve. He recovers to get to his advantage, but then balloons another errant forehand well long, before finally getting on the board to reduce his deficit to 3-1.
It was also a day when Stan Wawrinka played his final grand slam match, Carlos Alcaraz made his return from injury and Aryna Sabalenka, after a shaky summer, started her title defence with a comfortable victory.

It's been a wild summer, to say the least, for Ryan Clark.
He was fired by ESPN under the guise of a layoff, getting the word while on the air. It was clearly a middle finger to someone they loved for who and what he was, until they suddenly didn't.
Now, Clark's podcast has been picked up by Netflix.
The announcement came on Monday. The show, featuring Clark, Channing Crowder, and Fred Taylor, will launch on the streaming platform on September 8, with two episodes per week.
The arrangement includes a first-look deal with Clark's Pivot25 Productions for Netflix-exclusive bonus episodes.
“I’ve gained a new perspective: passion over platform, and people over perception,” Clark said in a statement. “I’m grateful and excited to take [The Pivot] to Netflix. This is the beginning of a beautiful new chapter. . . . The story is far from finished.”
It's the latest move by Netflix in a push into the sports podcast space. Despite claims that the experiment isn’t going well, it feels like a long-term play for the streamer.
For Clark (and others) it's a reminder that there's a broad universe beyond legacy media.
Chris Ballard had a colorful description of the NFL-to-college transfer portal
As the chaos continues over whether certain players released by NFL teams can return to college football, various NFL figures have been asked for their views on the situation.
During a Tuesday press conference, Colts G.M. Chris Ballard said his team was approached by no rookies asking to be waived so that they could pursue a fifth season at the college level.
Ballard added this regarding the phenomenon, via Nathan Brown of the Indianapolis Star: “That’s the stupidest shit I’ve ever heard.”
He's far from alone in that opinion. It is a ridiculous outcome. But it's a direct result of NCAA mismanagement, flowing from the implosion of decades of antitrust violations.
The powers-that-be in college football are banking on sentiments like "that's the stupidest shit I've ever heard" creating sufficient momentum to turn the Protect College Sports Act into law — giving the system the antitrust exemption is badly wants while also limiting the freedom and earning capacity of the players.
Panthers sign LB Tyrel Dodson to practice squad
Veteran linebacker Tyrel Dodson has found a new home in Carolina.
The Panthers announced that they have signed Dodson to their practice squad. He was released by the Dolphins over the weekend.
Dodson joined the Dolphins in a 2024 trade with the Seahawks and started 16 games for them last season. He entered the league as an undrafted free agent with the Bills in 2020 and Panthers General Manager Dan Morgan was in the Buffalo front office when Dodson joined the team.
Dodson has 379 tackles, 11.5 sacks, four interceptions, three forced fumbles and three fumble recoveries over his entire career.
The Panthers also signed defensive tackle Anthony Goodlow to the practice squad on Tuesday.
