She watched the match with players and fans and found out what the win means to them. Seeing their home grown Star Seal the most extraordinary of triumphs, elation for emma erupted. Cheering and applause. She has just stunned the world on the iconic courts of Flushing Meadows, But it was Here at Parklangley Club in beckenham that as a six year old she started the work that led to Grand Slam glory. Those who had seen the first signs of Her potential could barely believe it. The grind of being a tennis coach, strengthening and conditioning coach. It is tough, and moments like this make it All worth it. Hours on from Her remarkable win, is this the Emma Effect already on display . Local Boys And Girls back in bromley telling us they are keener than ever to take to the court. It inspires me a lot to play more, to be more enthusiastic about how i play, how i can progress and yeah, All of those different experiences are reAlly nice. I watched a little bit Last Night and my parents told me that she won. And i already knew that she played Here, and i thought it was reAlly cool, and so i wanted to come Here today to see how well i could. Train Here Too. While the celebrations within british tennis are still in full flow, the pressure is on those in charge of the sport to capitalise on Raducanus Success. The fact that she is still a teenager, a lot of girls drop out of tennis aged 15, i6, and seeing Herjust finished Her A Levels and hopefully they can relate to that and hopefully it will keep them playing and also it will inspire the crop of british players weve got. The phones are ringing off the hook at bromley Tennis Centre, wHere a certain E Raducanu lifted one at Her earliest trophies back in 2009. THere is hope that will now get many more racquets in hands. I reAlly think it is going to reAlly inspire some young girls, in particular, But i think children, both Boys And Girls, will be reAlly excited by the win, fancy getting into tennis, look up their local venue. This relatable young Role Model has made rewriting Tennis History Look easy and fun. For those involved in growing the sport, it is notjust an exciting moment, But a crucial one. Laura scott, Bbc News, bromley. The government has scrapped plans to introduce Vaccine Passports in england just days after saying they would be going ahead in Nightclubs and otHer large events at The End of the month. The Health Secretary said the scheme would instead be kept as a potential option for the future. Speaking to the bbc, Sajid Javid said he also wanted to get rid of Pcr Tests for foreign travel. This report from our political Correspondent Ione wells contains flashing images. No jab, no entry. That was the message ministers sent last week, saying Vaccine Passports in england would be needed for venues like Nightclubs at The End of this month. If you look at what has happened in otHer countries, wHere Nightclubs were opening and then shutting again, Opening And Shutting again, its that. We want to avoid that disruption. We will almost certainly be doing it for Nightclubs. We will make a determination i as to whetHer we need to move more broadly than that. Today, a change of tune from the Health Secretary, Sajid Javid, who said, while the plans will be kept in reserve, they wont go ahead at The End of the month. What i can say is we have looked at it properly and, whilst we should keep it in reserve as a potential option, im pleased to say we will not be going ahead with plans for Vaccine Passports. Labour dont look set to oppose the decision, with shadow Health Secretary Jonathan Ashworth saying they would ratHer see an emphasis on ventilating spaces. I think the problem with Vaccine Passports is people thought that was the key to everything, But the point about Nightclubs and crowded events is you have to have otHer measures in place, theyve got to be well ventilated, you have got to have clean air and it is one of the things we have been arguing for months now, especiAlly when it comes to schools, to put the clean Air Facilities in place. In scotland, people will need proof they have been fully vaccinated to enter Nightclubs and otHer large events from the 1st Of October and, in wales, a decision is expected next week. The prime minister will announce his covid Winter Plan for england on tuesday, outlining plans for boosterjabs and also contingencies that could be needed if the nhs risks being overwhelmed, such as the use of face coverings. But the Direction Of Travel is clear. Sajid javid has said he wants to get rid of Pcr Tests for double jabbed travellers as soon as possible and he said he didnt see how we could get to anotHer lockdown in england. While he stressed it would be irresponsible to take everything off the table, he was clear ministers want life to return to normal as soon as possible. Ione wells, Bbc News. The tuc has warned that up to 660,000 jobs could be at risk, if the uk fails to reach net zero Carbon Emissions as quickly as otHer countries. As its annual conference gets under way, unions are particularly concerned about heavy industries like steel production. The government said it doesnt recognise the tuc� s figures, and said would cut Carbon Emissions by almost 80 per cent by 2035. Our Business Correspondent Katie Prescott reports. Making steel can be a dirty business, But tHere are ways around it. In sweden, they are using new technology to produce steel without using coal. Workers in Blast Furnaces like this one fear that, if the uk doesnt go the same way, they could lose theirjobs. The whole infrastructure needs looking at and it All needs to be coordinated. People are thinking, wHere i going to be working . What is going to happen to the plant that i work in at this moment in time and what does the future look like . THere is no doubt that industry will have to undergo a Green Revolution and that will inevitably have an impact on jobs, Butjust how severe that impact will be will depend on how its planned and, of course, how its paid for at a time when tHere are already so demands on the public purse. As this years trades Union Congress gets underway, it is the major talking point. Companies are going to think about locating in countries wHere they get support from their government to make those adaptations, to invest in the new technology, to think about how you produce those currently heavy carbon goods in a low carbon way, and that is why the Uk Government needs to step up so that our businesses can compete. The government says that the tuc� S Claims are untrue, saying the uk has grown its economy by 78 while cutting emissions by 44 over the past three decades. And it launched an independent Task Force to develop plans for good quality Green Jobs by 2030. Many say the move to a green economy, handled well, brings opportunities. If we can move people toward safer, healthier, better rewarded Remunerated Careers with better well being, that may leave some of thosejobs behind, that is probably, on balance, a good thing. The chAllenge is building a low Carbon Future that includes industry and workers. Something else for next months budget. Katie prescott, Bbc News. The headlines on Bbc News. Emma raducanu makes history at the Us Open, beating Leylah Fernandez to become the first british woman to win a Grand Slam singles final in 44 years. The Health Secretary says the Government Wont introduce Vaccine Passports in england, ahead of plans to protect the nhs from rising covid cases this winter the Trade Union Congress warns that up to 660,000 jobs could be at risk if the uk fails to reach net zero Carbon Emissions as quickly as otHer countries. Sport now, for a full round up from the Bbc Sport centre. Good afternoon. The Italian Grand Prix produced of the most dramatic Formula One races of the season at monza. Max verstappen started from Pole Lewis Hamilton in fourth. But after returning to the track from a pit stop Hamilton And Verstappen collided taking each otHer out.

Salisbury and american partner Desirae Krawczyk beat mexicos Giuliana 0lmos and el salvador� s Marcelo Arevalo 7 5 6 2 at Flushing Meadows. It was just pure emotion i it wasjust pure emotion i guess, justjoy, excitement, yeah, a bit of disbelief. But to be honest i was not reAlly thinking anything, i was just enjoying the moment. So history made for Gordon Reid, Alfie Hewitt and Emma Raducanu and tHere could be more record breaking in New York later when Novak Djokovic takes on russias Danil Medvedev in the mens final aiming to become the first man in 52 years to complete the calendar Grand Slam. Thejob is not done. Excitement is tHere, motivation is tHere without a doubt, probably more than ever But i have one more to go. It is going to be a battle against anotHer guy who has been in tremendous form, he has won a lot of matches on the hard court so far. He already has a couple of Grand Slam finals behind them so experience wise it is different for him no mac. Im sure hes going to give it All for him to win it. For him now.

Beth england then rounded off the match after erin cuthbert� s chance rebounded off the post. A second 4 0 defeat for everton But a massive improvement for Emma Hayes side. I think we should have scored more goals. If you think about the balance of play, for us to come in at 10 balance of play, for us to come in at 1 0 at half time was disappointing But i thought it was composed. I am delighted we kept a clean sheet and defended properly. Going forward, we had plenty of options. The composure amongst the group is growing. The composure amongst the group is growing.

The two men have radicAlly different interpretations of what constitutes a christian approach to migration. Interpretations of what constitutes the pontiff has severely criticised the reluctance of some European Leaders to take in refugees But Mr 0rban says hes defending leaders to take in refugees But Mr 0rban says hes defending what he cAlls christian europe. 0ur central Europe Correspondent Nick thorpe is in budapest. Ahead of this visit, both sides the vatican and the hungarian government were keen to smooth over any differences. The vatican stressed that this is, above All, a spiritual visit for the pope to celebrate mass in Heroes-square'>Heroes Square in hungary for Tens Of Thousands of christians, especiAlly catholics from around the world, the Closing Event, the climax of a week of the Eucharistic Congress, only held every four years. From the hungarian governments side, the government has been keen to stress it is a great honour to have the pope in hungary even for such a short visit, But of course behind the scenes, tHere are huge differences between the two men. While the pope, from the start of his papacy, has stressed the need for europe, for christians in particular, to welcome people of otHer faiths, to help those in need, those fleeing from war and violence, Asylum Seekers and refugees, wHereas Viktor 0rban, as the head of the hungarian government, especiAlly since 2015, has set himself up as a champion, as he puts it, of christian europe, of trying to keep europe as it is, and often that seems to be an anti islamic, anti muslim message. You also have a situation wHere, just six months ahead of the hungarian elections, this visit is very interesting to both sides, both to the government side, with Viktor 0rban welcoming the pope and reAlly seeking in some way some sort of support from the pope for his own policies in defence of christian europe, in defence of persecuted christians around the world, wHereas the more liberal opposition Here seeing this as a liberal pope, reAlly, and tHere have been posters going up All Over Budapest welcoming the pope as a champion of human dignity, human rights, of civil rights. So very different views Here. The two men only had half an hour or so of talks before the meetings went ahead with the hungarian bishops, with people of otHer faiths and then of course the big mass, the Closing Event of the Eucharistic Congress in budapest, and the pope then, after this, on his way to slovakia for this longer three day trip.

After arguably the most unexpected success in british sporting history, Emma Raducanus barely believable triumph me seem to lots of people like something of an overnight sensation, But in truth it has been years in the making, and much of Her preparation and Hard Work has been done Here at the Lawn Tennis associations headquarters. They made Her one of their professional scholars when she was 16, and it is an investment that has paid off in a way that few would have foreseen.

Dan roan tHere, our Sports Editor. The government has scrapped plans to introduce Vaccine Passports for entry to Nightclubs and some live events in england at The End of the month. The Health Secretary Sajid Javid said they will not now come in, as otHer ministers had said they would just days ago. Similar measures are set to be introduced in scotland. Heres our political correspondent Chris Mason this is the Park Life Festival in manchester, of people in the park this weekend, Night Clubs and perhaps events like this in england face the prospect of having to demand Vaccine Passports by The End of the month.

Lets bring you up to date on the latest Uk Coronavirus figures. Nearly 30,000 new infections were recorded in the latest 24 Hour Period, which means an average of 36,000 cases per day in the last week. THere were 8,098 people in hospital being treated for coronavirus as of wednesday. 56 deaths were reported in the latest 24 Hour Period thats people who died within 28 days of a positive covid test. It takes the average number of deaths per day in the last week to 139. Leading Trade Unions are Warning Ofjobs being at risk unless the uk steps up investment in green Infrastructure And Progress towards meeting its net zero target. At their annual conference, the tuc is highlighting the threat to currentjobs in heavy industries such as iron and steel. Our Business Correspondent Katie Prescott reports. Making steel can be a dirty business, But tHere are ways around it. In sweden, theyre using new technology to produce steel without using coal. Workers in Blast Furnaces like this one fear that, if the uk doesnt go the same way, they could lose theirjobs. The whole infrastructure needs looking at and it All needs to be coordinated. People are thinking, wHere i going to be working . Whats going to happen to the plant that i work on at this moment in time, and what does the future look like . THere is no doubt that industry will have to undergo a Green Revolution, and that will inevitably have an impact on jobs, Butjust how severe that impact will be will depend on how its planned, and, of course, how its paid for at a time when tHere are already so many demands on the public purse. As this years trades Union Congress gets underway, it is the major talking point. Companies are going to think about locating in countries wHere they get support from their government to make those adaptations, to invest in the new technology, to think about how you produce those currently heavy carbon goods in a low carbon way, and thats why the Uk Government needs to step up so that our businesses can compete. The government says that the tuc� S Claims are untrue, saying. Its launched an independent group to look at developing good quality greenjobs. Many say the move to a green economy, handled well, brings opportunities. If we can move people towards safer, healthier, better rewarded, Remunerated Careers with better well being, that may leave some of those jobs behind, thats probably, on balance, a good thing. The chAllenge is building a low Carbon Future that includes industry and workers. Something else for next months budget. Katie prescott, Bbc News. Now with news of a dramatic moment in the Italian Grand Prix and the rest of the Days Sport Heres Lizzie Greenwood hughes. Good evening. Thanks, mishal. The fierce rivalry between Lewis Hamilton and F1 Championsip Leader Max Verstappen Took anotHer dramatic Turn Today as they heavily collided in the Italian Grand Prix, with hamilton only narrowly avoiding serious injury. The race was won by Daniel Ricciardo, But tHeres an ongoing investigation to find out who was responsible for the crash. Jo currie reports. This season has been defined by Lewis Hamilton and Max Verstappens rivalry. The collision between the two at Silverstone Injuly Saw Verstappen taken to Hospital And Hamilton accused of putting his life in danger. With neitHer willing to give an inch at monza, it happened again. Thats what you get when you dont leave the space. The World Champion was left with a sore neck from contact with the dutchmans tyre. Without the protective halo above his head, the outcome doesnt bear thinking about. Verstappen out of his car quickly, in no mood to check in on his rival before hamilton also emerged. AnotHer monumental moment in their battle for the championship which could go to the final race. Their misfortune, though, is mclarens good luck. Without verstappen chasing him, Daniel Ricciardo delivered his first win for three years, his teams first since 2012. Start the celebrations for mclaren. Ricciardo has done it. And thanks to britains lando norris, theirfirst 1 2 for a decade. All talk, however, will be of that crash and how much worse it could have been. Jo currie, Bbc News. Liverpool could go joint top of the Premier League today. Theyre at Leeds United who are yet to win this season. Its the second half at Elland Road and liverpool are leading 2 0, Mo Salah one of the scorers for his 100th Premier League goal. The game has been halted at the moment after a serious injury. If it stays like this, liverpool will be behind man united and chelsea on goal difference. THere were some fine saves in a feisty edinburgh derby, But it ended in a goAlless draw, as hearts and hibs both missed out on the chance of going top of the scottish premiership. Brighton are top of the womens Super League ahead of Arsenal And Manchester united on goal difference. Champions chelsea inflicted evertons second 4 0 defeat in row. The prolific australian striker Sam Kerr scored twice, and it could have been many more, as chelsea had 27 shots on goal. Lee westwood will make a record equAlling 11th appearance for europe in Golfs Ryder Cup later this month. He just did enough at the Pga Championship at wentworth to qualify ahead of irelands shane lowry, who could still be picked as a Wild Card when Captain Padraig Harrington announces his team later this evening. The tournament was won by americas billy horschel. And more Tennis History could be made at the Us Open tonight as Novak Djokovic aims to break the record for the most mens singles titles at a Grand Slam. You can find out more on the Bbc Sport website. But thats it from me. Back to you, mishal. THeres more throughout the evening on the Bbc News channel. Were back with the late news at ten oclock. Now on bbc one its time for the news wHere you are. A team at Cranfield University is competing in an international competition to develop a robot that does the shopping in supermarkets. It might sound easy But identifying different objects by sight, and picking them up neatly, is a significant chAllenge in robotics. Heres our Science Correspondent richard westcott. In a nervous corner of an Aircraft Hangar in bedfordshire. Guys, we need to go as soon as possible, reAlly. A team is competing in a three day global competition, to programme a robot to identify and then move some shopping. Not as easy as you might think. It is All a bit tense because they are actuAlly doing the Competition Run now. It is being watched in italy. Keeping an eye on us via live Video Link are judges and otHer competing teams at the main event in bologna. And we have the overview Here, wHere we have already the Robot Standing and looking into the container. 13 international teams are competing in this competition. Six of them remotely, including cranfield. Gilbert, that was very expertly done, But the reality is a child could do that. Why is it so hard for a robot to do it . Something that seems so easy for us humans to do is actuAlly extremely complicated for robots because firstly the robot will have to be able to see the item through its camera. Secondly, it will have to process the image using some reAlly clever algorithm to identify what type of object it is, what orientation the object has been placed in, and then secondly, doing some calculation in orderfor the Robot Arm to be able to identify the correct position to then grab onto it using its fingers. Has it been good fun . Yeah, i would say it was great fun and chAllenging in the meantime, and we learned a lot during this process, and yeah, i think everybody is quite happy to get involved with this. So tHeres quite a Big Push i at the moment for human robot interaction, so caregiving robots in hospitals, and care homes, i so maybe for patients who are lonely and dont have anybody to come and visit them. Some of the money for the team comes from a big company whose future will rely on this kind of technology. Certainly with the high level skills, we find difficult in recruiting. THeres a shortage, tHere is high demand because lots of industries are now going for this level of robotics. So being engaged in these competitions Allows us to keep in touch with the Recruitment Pipeline and some of the excellent research that is going on. A bit of Talent Spotting . Definitely. Robots are the future, But programming them to be as good as humans at some tasks is still many years away. Richard westcott, Bbc News, cranfield in bedfordshire. Hello. The weatHer over the next 2 3 days will be a little unpredictable at least in some parts of the country because of this pattern in the Jet Stream. Look at this inverted s. It goes northwards, loops down and then back up again and tHere is very little wind across the uk at the moment. THere is a Her-front'>WeatHer Front crossing us right now. You can see it Here, it is almost like a wave, and it is bringing rain to parts of wales and the South West of england, in places reAlly quite damp, But it is a concentrated area of rain which will then spill into parts of the midlands and the north of england, just spits and spots Here, i think. Temperatures will be mostly in the teens, the warmer and brighter weatHer is across the south east, wHereas in the north we have got sunny, reAlly quite fresh conditions, only around 13 in aberdeen and that is because the winds are coming in from the north. But when i mentioned the fact that it is going to be quite predictable it is because, notice the winds are coming in from the south Here, they are blowing in from the north tHere, tHere is a Her-front'>WeatHer Front stuck in between and that means it is very, very slow moving and in fact it will be very slow moving across the soutHern half of the uk, broadly speaking, over the next two three days, so getting the timing right of wHere exactly it is going to rain and for how long is going to be quite tricky. So Here is the forecast for monday and clearly it is quite wet across parts of wales. Some rain gets into South Western england, But notice that rain has a tendency to sweep a bit furtHer north and not much eastward progression, so i think on Monday Eastern Areas probably staying dry, if not bright. But by the time we get to tuesday, again that very sluggish rain will push eastwards, so its in the west wHere we will see more sunshine, wHereas furtHer east for a time, at least in the morning and early afternoon, that rain will linger before clearing off into the North Sea. I think for wednesday into thursday that is when the weatHer will start to settle down and that is because an area of High Pressure is building. We have got the azores Here, this is cAlled the Azores High. You can see this nose of High Pressure, what we often refer to, is building towards the uk, which means parts of the country will see slightly higHer temperatures and you can see the weatHer settling down tHere with the dry weatHer icons, for london, for example. That is it. Bye bye this is Bbc News the headlines at six. Emma raducanu makes history at the Us Open, beating Leylah Fernandez to become the first british woman to win a Grand Slam singles final in 44 years. The queen is among those congratulating the teenager following Her stunning victory in New York, just months after finishing Her A Levels. To have a note from Her, i was extremely honoured and very, very grateful that she Took notice of my tennis. I cant believe it, im maybe going to frame that letter or something. The government scraps plans for Vaccine Passports in Nightclubs and large events in england what i can say is that we have looked at it properly and whilst we should keep it in reserve as a potential option, i am pleased to say we will not be going ahead with plans for Vaccine Passports
