Coco Gauff overcomes 14 more double-faults to advance in Montreal
MONTREAL (AP) — Coco Gauff overcame 14 more double-faults to beat Veronika Kudermetova of Russia 4-6, 7-5, 6-2 on Thursday in the National Bank Open. Two days after surviving 23 double-faults and a third-set tiebreaker against fellow American Danielle Collins, the top-seeded Gauff rallied from a set and break down against Kudermetova to reach the round of 16. 'It was a tough match,' Gauff said. 'I thought I did well mentally, especially on the return. I was playing an opponent that served really well. Obviously, I would like to serve better on my end, but overall, just happy to get through.' Gauff, No. 2 in the world behind Aryna Sabalenka, entered the week having lost two straight matches since winning the French Open, falling in her opening matches in Berlin and Wimbledon. 'It does give positives that I am winning these matches having literally one part of my game on a crutch,' Gauff said. 'If I can stand on both feet, then I can only imagine that it will be a lot more straight-forward and a lot easier for me.' Graf set up a match with 18-year-old Canadian Victoria Mboko, a 1-6, 6-3, 6-0 winner over Marie Bouzkova of Czechia in the night session. Mboko is the last of the nine Canadians left. 'It was a very difficult match, I feel like, mentally and physically for me," Mboko said. 'I'm just really happy to have come out with the win.' McCartney Kessler of the United States upset fourth-seeded Mirra Andreeva of Russia 7-6 (5), 6-4. In the next round, Kessler will face Marta Kostyuk of the Ukraine. Kostyuk beat 15th-seeded Daria Kasatkina of Australia 3-6, 6-3, 7-6 (4). Dayana Yastremska of the Ukraine knocked off eighth-seeded Emma Navarro 7-5, 6-4 in a night match. She'll face ninth-seeded Elena Rybakina of Kazakhstan, a 6-0, 7-6 (5) winner over Jaqueline Cristian of Romania in the last match of the day. Tenth-seeded Elina Svitolina beat Kamilla Rakhimova of Russia 7-5, 6-2. ___ AP tennis: The Associated Press

Bryson DeChambeau named chair of President's Council on Sports Fitness & Nutrition
In addition to two-time U.S. Open winner, Bryson DeChambeau has a new title: chair of the President's Council on Sports Fitness and Nutrition. DeChambeau was at the White House Wednesday, standing alongside WWE wrestler Triple H, NFL great Lawrence Taylor and other athletes to help relaunch the Presidential Fitness Test as President Donald Trump signed an executive order to expand the Presidential Council on Sports, Fitness and Nutrition. DeChambeau said he has a new mission beyond trying to break 50 on his YouTube channel. "We believe we can change the fabric of our communities and kids' livelihoods for the future generations that are to come,' DeChambeau said during the announcement. 'I can't thank you enough and looking forward to making massive changes in kids' lives and America's future." 🚨🏋🏻♂️🗣️ #NEW: Bryson DeChambeau has joined the Presidential Council on Sports, Physical Activity, and Nutrition. Speaking from The White House, DeChambeau says they have the opportunity to change kids lives. @BrysonLegion DeChambeau also did an interview on Fox News Channel's Special Report with Bret Baier. Asked why he was taking on this role, he said, 'Well, I think, look, I grew up in an era in my public education side of the coin where we had a fitness test. In reading up about it, since 1956, President Eisenhower established this and it has changed in form numerous times. And, you know, for me, all I want to do is inspire the next generation of young individuals that have passion around sport, health, nutrition, and fitness. And from my standpoint, re-establishing the President's Sports Council as well as the fitness test is a huge initiative for America and its health and fitness all across the board. 'So, we couldn't be more excited. I've got a great team behind me. We're establishing more council members as time is going on. And we're going to be excited to showcase what we have for the American public here soon.' DeChambeau famously re-made his body, consuming more than 6,000 calories per day and gaining around 40 pounds in an effort to chase speed and become the longest driver on the PGA Tour. He earned the nickname 'the Incredible Bulk.' He has since revealed that he regretted that decision due to some negative health impacts and has lost much of the weight. "I want to get kids excited about pushing themselves," DeChambeau said. The full interview with Bret Baier can be viewed here.
