In what is without a doubt one of the biggest, if not the biggest, tennis upset of the year–Roland Garros and Wimbledon champion Carlos Alcaraz has just been eliminated from the US Open by World #74 Botic Van de Zandschulp. The Dutch was a former quarterfinalist at this tournament (2021) and had previously shown the ability to bother the top players, but he had never looked capable of produce a win of his magnitude on such a stage and had been struggling and dropping down the rankings for quite a while.

Day three of the US Open was electric as defending titleholders Coco Gauff and Novak Djokovic cruised into the third round with ease. Coco Gauff swept into the third round comfortably over Germany's Tatjana Maria in the suffocating New York heat, while a hurt opponent retired to send Djokovic into the third round. Other American players, including Gauff and Taylor Fritz, have vastly bettered their chances, ramping up the excitement in Flushing Meadows. With competition at an all-time high, the tournament should be an entertaining one.

Last offseason, the Cleveland Cavaliers acquired guard Ty Jerome as a free agent to help fill out their bench. The University of Virginia standout played as a backup for the Golden State Warriors and was brought in to do the same in Cleveland. However, after just two games, Jerome went down with a mysterious knee injury he would not return from all year. He’ll look to regain his role this year fresh off that injury in 2024.
