“I feel good, but after a long period of time without competing, I felt the leg tightening a little bit in Abu Dhabi in the first match,” he said to the media. “That’s why I didn’t play the second (match). So I came here. I did an MRI, and it shows a very small strain on the left thigh, but it’s there.” He recently pulled out of the Mubadala World Tennis Championship last week after playing one match, which he lost to Kevin Anderson....

Justin Rose had the opportunity to reclaim his place at the top of the worl rankings if he finished in a three-way tie for second or better but he fell short....

Speaking at the event, Ganguly said, “Pink ball cricket is something that will bring test cricket closer to the fans again. This particular calendar year has a lot of test matches, and we must be able to market day/night cricket to people. Test cricket needs to become something that people are excited about. If you saw the recent England/Sri Lanka test match, crowds attended the event, keeping in mind a day out, not necessarily a cricket match....

The Raiders wide receiver was in town Tuesday and posted a video to his Instagram from the Allegheny County Courthouse ahead of a summary appeal hearing regarding his traffic stop from last year. “To all my fans in Pittsburgh, I never got to say goodbye,” Brown said in the video. “I’m here today in the downtown Pittsburgh court.” Brown was found guilty of reckless driving in February and forced to pay over $400 in fines after failing to make his court appearance in Pittsburgh....

Therein lies the reason for the Raiders’ new ceiling. Adams immediately puts the receiving room in the top half of the league, and he’ll take pressure off Hunter Renfrow. The defense still has question marks, but Maxx Crosby’s breakout season last year is a promising sign for a unit that’s looking to get better. But the Raiders are playing in possibly the most difficult division in the NFL. The Chargers and Chiefs are bound to be in the AFC championship conversation, and the Broncos landed one of the offseason’s biggest fish in Russell Wilson....

Swatting is where a person will contact emergency services to send law enforcement to a particular address.

My colleague Rafael Mangual and I have argued that Congress should address qualified immunity doctrine, in some fashion. I have not yet seen Senator Scott’s draft text, but it’s being touted as focusing on how courts apportion liability to municipal governments rather than individual officers. That makes some sense: There is little practical difference in whether liability attaches to officers or municipal governments, since municipalities almost always indemnify officers anyway....

A new essay by leading scientist Sankar Das Sarma argues that many claims about quantum computers are overblown, stating that current practical applications for quantum computers are, in fact, limited. But not all experts agree with the assessment, instead believing it’s only a matter of time before they deliver on their potential. “We’re seeing more and more potential use cases for quantum computing and proof of concept projects that validate that quantum computing could help achieve advantages,” Scott Laliberte, managing director and global leader of consulting firm Protiviti’s Emerging Technology Group, told Lifewire in an email interview....

The proliferation of that sort of quick-and-dirty analysis is the theme of MIT professor Paul Krugman’s new book, “Peddling Prosperity” (303 pages. Norton. $22). Krugman, a superstar among economists, asks a frustrated question: why do politicians and the public so readily embrace pop economics? The answer, of course, is supply and demand-in this case, demand for facile answers that honest professors are often unable to supply. “[N]ecessity is the mother of invention: a different group, the policy entrepreneurs, has arisen to fill the gap,” he writes....

The 27-year-old has been in fine form for the Yellow-Reds this season, scoring two goals in seven appearances and it came as a surprise he was left out of the team.
