runner up tumbling out of the us open. tsisipas not blaming anyone else though. everything on court is under my control and under my talent and the way i can play this sport, i have shown that on the court. if i'm not able to deliver then i am not supposed to be doing well, and that is what happened this summer. i was not good enough to deliver and score good results. world numberi novak djokovic has cruised into the thirs round of the us open with a straight sets win over spain's berna bay zapata miralles. djokovic efficient as always. the 23—time major winner only needed the one break in the first set, before cranking up the gears to take the second and third sets, 6—4, 6—1, 6—1. carlos alcaraz had a short start to the defence of his us open men's title, after german opponent dominik koepfer retired injured midway through their first—round match. the 20—year—old spaniard led 6—2 3—2 when koepfer, who rolled his ankle minutes into the match, had to stop. koepfer, ranked 75th, went over on his ankle in the first game of the match, needing a medical timeout and gamely continuing for an hour before deciding it was best to stop. on the women's side, world number one iga swiatek eased into the third round on wednesday with a comfortable straight sets defeat of australia's daria saville. the reigning champion was always in control taking the match 6—3, 6—4. swiatek will now play slovenia's kaja juvan on friday. number two seed aryna sabalenka is safely through to the second round. the belarusian easing past world number 112, maryna zanevska, 6—3, 6—2. two—time champion venus williams, who was given a wildcard to the event, lost 6—1 6—1 to belgium's greet minnen. it was, though, the as—years—old's 24th appearance in the singles draw at the us open, which extends her extraordinary record. england comprehensively thrashed new zealand by seven wickets, with a professional performance in the first t20 of their four—match series at chester—le—street, in durham. switching formats for their first action since the ashes a month ago, the hosts romped to victory in a chase of 140 with six overs to spare. after a blistering start from the visitors, where they scored 3 sixes off the first over, wickets began to tumble, with debutant brian carse taking 3 for 23. new zealand were eventually restricted to a below—par 139 for nine. dawid malan�*s 5a from from 42 balls was the bedrock of england's response, but it was left to liam livingstone to finish with a flourish, as england won by 7 wickets, i could not have asked for a better start. you know, when i got the news from josh yesterday afternoon that i would be playing, a lot of excitement to be able to play at durham, you know, where i have played my cricket over the last nine years. so a lot of familiar faces and familiar surroundings, so probablyjust made me feel that little bit more relaxed coming into the ground today. for them to come back into the power play so strongly was a credit to them. i think we did have time to be able to pull it back to the middle, where we would apply a bit of pressure but unfortunately it was just one of those days where you lose wickets at the wrong time so, you know, on another given day, when things go a little bit more our way we may have posted a slightly bigger total there. england women's match fees for internationals have been increased to equal the men's with immediate effect. the change was recommended in the independent commission for equity in cricket report. it said women were paid 25% of men's fees for white—ball and 15% for tests by the ecb. england captain heather knight said the change was "fantastic to see". it is another really good step forward for the game. we want to thank them again for taking us to this point. it is great, isn't it. it is kind of a reward for what has been a remarkable tournament and you talk about the women's game playing a really big role in the sport and putting the women's game alongside the man is all backing it up notjust with words but actions as well. and revenge is a dish best served cold. twelve months on from being eliminated by rangers at the same stage, psv eindhoven will be dining at europe's top table this season, after thrashing scottish side to book their place in the champions league group stage. the two teams started the second leg all square. but a dominant display

home to leicester. some transfer news for you now and monaco have completed the £35m signing of striker folarin balogun from arsenal on a five—year deal. the 22—year—old usa forward returns to france

manchester city have reached a verbal agreement with wolves over a £47.3m deal to sign midfielder matheus nunes. the deal for the 25—year—old hasn't been formally agreed yet but if completed, there

the bbc sport app, orfrom our website — that's bbc. co. uk/sport. from me and the rest of the team at the bbc sport centre, goodbye. hello. for those of you that enjoy a big moon, there's a real treat outside at the moment. a super blue moon. what's one of those? well, the "super" bit is when the moon's closest to the earth for the year, and the "blue" bit the second full moon of the month, so a super blue moon. and this is how sam's house spotted the rising moon here in derbyshire just over the last few hours. now, looking at the weather picture at the moment, we do have some thicker cloud out to the west, that's going to rather spoil the sight of the moon. but across the eastern side of the country, we've got the clearest of the skies. now through the day on thursday, we do have some rain that's going to be spreading in from the west, and that will start to make inroads towards south—west wales and south—west england over the next few hours. as that arrives, so will quite mild air. so 1a degrees in plymouth as we start the day on thursday, cooler across the north and east of the country. so north—east, south—west split with the weather for thursday, lovely start to the day for scotland, across much of northern england. bright with hazy sunshine for east anglia. but across western areas we've got the rain moving in and some of the rain will be quite heavy across southern areas of wales, southern areas of england. otherwise it's probably going to come through quite light and patchy, really. top temperatures around about 18—20 degrees for many areas. now on into friday's forecast, the remnants of that area of low pressure still with us. and really it's a day of sunny spells and a few showers. probably the cloudiest zone of weather will be across northern england, north wales, the north midlands and northern ireland, where there'll be a few patches of rain, one to two showers elsewhere. temperatures, again, high teens to low 20s. but as we head into the weekend, we've got a real change in the weather patterns. an area of high pressure is set to move in across the uk. we're not seeing too many of those over the last couple of months, i can tell you. now saturday morning there might be a few mist and fog patches first thing, but otherwise it's a fine—looking day. lots of sunshine to look forward to with just a little bit of fair weather cloud popping up for a time. temperatures rising across the board pretty much into the low twenties, 23 towards south—east england. and that is going to feel warm in the september sunshine. and we've got more of that to come through sunday and deep into the new week as well. so quite a long spell of dry and sunny weather finally looks set to arrive. bye for now. live from washington, this is bbc news.
