The Croatian was seeded 14th for the grass-court grand slam and sat in Roger Federer’s section of the draw. Matteo Berrettini has been shuffled into Coric’s spot and the 17th seed will take on Aljaz Bedene, while lucky loser Canadian Brayden Schnur meets Marcos Baghdatis. Jan-Lennard Struff moves into Berrettini’s original place, meaning a showdown with Radu Albot.

Not long ago, ABC News seemed invincible. The ammunition: a cast of megawatt superstars like Peter Jennings, Ted Koppel, Barbara Walters and Diane Sawyer. Under Jennings, ““World News Tonight’’ had been a consistent first among evening news shows since the 1990-91 season. Presiding over them all was Roone Arledge, an ABC producer who’d virtually invented television sports coverage before moving on to run the news division in 1977. But trouble hovered just offstage....

Reports have suggested one option being considered by the Premier League, should the competition be allowed to resume amid the coronavirus crisis, is to hold all matches behind closed doors at neutral venues. The Amex is rumoured to be one of the grounds under consideration, yet Barber has suggested the reports are, as it stands, wide of the mark. “We haven’t been asked if we would consider our stadium being used as a neutral venue for any remaining Premier League matches – by our colleagues at the league, the government or the police – and at this point we haven’t been approached to have such a discussion either so I am unable to say why our stadium has been included in the reports,” Barber wrote in a statement on the club’s official website....

The 2019-20 NBA campaign has been postponed since March due to the COVID-19 crisis, which has wreaked havoc globally – pushing the Olympic Games and Euro 2020 back a year.

Dan Ashworth served as FA technical director until departing after the 2018 World Cup to join Brighton and Hove Albion, where he holds the same job title. He was involved in talks while at the national governing body that took in discussions about B teams and feeder clubs, but in 2017 said he could not see the shape of the English game “changing anytime soon”. The English Football League (EFL) also took a strong stance against the notion of B teams, at a time when it was suggested an extra tier could be added in a restructuring plan....

The elusive Control sequel may be tempted to strip Jesse of her paranatural tools in order to give players a clean slate. That approach would make sense, since it would also give Remedy room to rework Jesse’s skillset, but there may be another way that’s just as valuable. Control 2 could look into The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild’s approach to supernatural abilities, front-loading the collection of Objects of Power in order to make Jesse feel more powerful while giving her opportunities to navigate the Oldest House in creative new ways....

The broadcast was a world away from the MLS that had aired earlier that afternoon, although viewers did not seem to mind, including soccer fans....
