slam—winner, who twice had to come from a break down in the fourth set. in the end, though, doing what he had to do. he dominated most of the points in the first set, and i was struggling to get to my good tennis, or the tennis and i was playing in the first and second set. then in the fourth set, i had to fight. i had to overcome the problems that i had much of the time with myself, but really

this month. the american was arrested outside valhalla golf club while trying navigate heavy traffic hours before his second round at the tournament. the charges included reckless driving and disregarding traffic signals from an officer. it is obvious he did not do anything wrong, and as i said repeatedly, the more evidence that comes outcome of the more it shows that scott was the victim

appointed bayern munich head coach on a three—year deal. the former manchester city captain retired from playing in 2020. he moved from anderlecht to manage burnley in 2022 and guided them to

bring you some breaking news on the ongoing criminal trial against the former us president donald trump. we show you pictures from the last few moments where we can see mr trump and his entourage returning back to the courtroom. that is because the core is now sitting again. that is after the jury sitting again. that is after the jury sent a note to the judge containing four requests. we can go straight to our correspondent, who is outside the courtroom there in manhattan to explain exactly what is going on. as we know when these kind of cases, it is normal for a going on. as we know when these kind of cases, it is normalfor a jury going on. as we know when these kind of cases, it is normal for a jury to make requests and asked for clarifications. what exactly are they asking for in this case? that's right. it's often a sign of how seriously jurors are that's right. it's often a sign of how seriouslyjurors are taking their responsibility. and they been deliberating for about four hours now, and a short while ago, as you mentioned, a buzzer went off and they had a note for the judge asking for additional pieces of testimony. three of which they want from david pecker it, the former publisher of the tabloid the national enquirer. they want to take a closer look at a meeting that he held with donald trump and michael cohen in august 2015 in trump tower. and exactly what he said in his testimony during that meeting. remember, that meeting was where prosecutors said david pecker said discuss a so—called catch and kill skiing with donald trump's campaign, to buy up and kill negative stories about tromp to help him get into the white house. now they also want to see michael cohen's testimony from that same meeting. perhaps to compare what the two have said. they also want to other pieces from david pecker. a phone call that he had with donald trump and a discussion he had about buying the former playboy model karen mcdougall�*s life rights and ultimately then not selling that to donald trump because of advice from his legal council. so remember, prosecutors had described david pecker and somebody whose testimony was incredibly damaging and stands on its own. this is somebody who was the first witness to speak in this trial and really lay the groundwork for the prosecution's case. so the process now is under way to get the jurors those transcripts and then deliberations will continue. qm. deliberations will continue. 0k, “oininu us deliberations will continue. 0k, joining us live _ deliberations will continue. 0k, joining us live from the courtroom in manhattan, back with you when we get more mellowness but for the moment, thanks. just a reminder, mr trump is facing 3a counts of falsifying business records, allegedly to cover up a hush money payment to the adult film star stormy daniels in the final weeks of the 2016 election. he has denied the allegations from the start. this trial is just one of a number of cases against mr trump. he's also facing probes related to his handling of classified documents, case related to the january 6th storming of the capitol and another connected to the 2020 presidential contest in the state of
