Oh, you didn’t know? We got you.

GAME. BLOUSES.

 

  • Venus Williams and Sloane Stephens both advanced to the semifinals of the U.S. Open. Stephens, 24, defeated Latvia’s Anastasija Sevastova, 6-3, 3-6, 7-6 (4), returning to the final four of a major for the first time since 2013. The 83rd-ranked American is on a roll these days, winning 13 of her past 15 matches, and she has now reached the semifinals at three consecutive tournaments for the first time in her career. She will now play Williams in the semifinals after the 37-year-old two-time champion defeated the Czech Republic’s Petra Kvitova, 6-3, 3-6, 7-6 (2).

 

  • Dallas Cowboys running back Ezekiel Elliott is eligible to play in the team’s season opener against the New York Giants on Sunday even though independent arbitrator Harold Henderson upheld the league’s six-game suspension of the second-year back. As a result of a temporary restraining order that was heard on Tuesday in the U.S. District Court in Sherman, Texas, Elliott will be able to play in Week 1 because of the timing of the decision that was handed down.
