“I can very clearly say that in this Olympics and the last Olympics that we didn’t put the best team forward. This Olympics the mixed doubles was a great opportunity. What more does a man need to do than win four Grand Slams in 14 months. There was no more tournaments to win, I could not create anymore tournaments. Sad." And depending on whose version of events you believe, Sania Mirza’s family may or may not have asked the All India Tennis Association to look into the WADA hacks about Venus Williams’ medical records (Mirza and Bopanna lost out to Williams and Rajeev Ram in the semi-finals in Rio)....

Coach Maymol Rocky’s charges will have momentum on their side as they go into the match on the back of a stunning 7-1 win against Bangladesh. After playing out a 1-1 draw in their opener against Nepal, the Indian women responded with a resounding victory in their second game, with Bala Devi getting on the scoresheet four times and Kamala Devi scoring twice. “7-1 is a good margin of victory....

The Indiana (8-2) freshman guard sunk a 3-pointer from NBA range to beat the buzzer and lift the No. 25 Hoosiers past in-state foe Butler (7-3) in the Crossroads Classic on Saturday. MORE: Rex Pflueger injury extends Irish losing streak Possessing the ball in a tie game with 18 seconds, Devonte Green delivered the pass to Phinisee, who extended over the arms of two Butler defenders to swish home the game winner....

Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny is Ford’s final appearance as the character. He previously played the character in 2008’s Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull. Unfortunately, that film was contentious, with many saying that Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull contains nonsensical scenes. Mutt Williams was one of the central points of contention for the film, but he didn’t have the swagger or cool factor associated with Indiana Jones, and many found him grating and whiny....

Governor Eric Holcomb is due to sign an Executive Order which will mean a statewide mask requirement would take effect in Indiana on July 27. Those who don’t follow the new order could be charged with a Class B misdemeanor, which is punishable by a fine and up to six months in jail. Holcomb said that by “masking up, we can and will save lives and slow the spread of COVID-19” in the state....

Mosquera-Perea, who is 6-9, 225 pounds, is expected to miss between two and four weeks recovering from a knee problem that developed Monday, according to the Indianapolis Star.

Seriously, man: Bob Knight ever do that? Hartman is 6-6, 210 pounds. He came out of Cathedral High in Indianapolis two years ago at 175, with a 3-star grade from ESPN’s recruiting analysts. Thursday night, with No. 13 Maryland at Assembly Hall, Hartman opened the game by scoring IU’s first four points and pushed the Hoosiers toward an insurmountable lead with a driving three-point play with a half-dozen minutes remaining....

The Indians are 86-63 and coasting into the postseason with a comfortable seven-game lead in the AL Central. But the team took two big blows within the past couple of weeks, losing starter Danny Salazar to injury Sept. 9, then losing starter Carlos Carrasco to a broken bone in his pitching hand on Saturday. Paul Hoynes, the longtime Indians beat writer for The Plain Dealer, thinks those two key injuries have doomed the Indians chances in the postseason, and said as much in his story on Saturday’s game ....

With all seats open the crowd would legitimately just top 10,000, which would be the first time in United States history where something like that happened for a truly independent event. In case you didn’t know… In 2017, Cody Rhodes and The Young Bucks decided to organize a huge independent wrestling show with the aim of selling out a venue which would hold more than 10,000 people and likely be the biggest independent wrestling show of all time....

There would be no better venue for Saina Nehwal to fashion a turnaround than at the Indonesia Open, the main draw of which begins tomorrow. After all, the Indonesia Open is her favourite tournament, the site of her most famous wins. It is again in Jakarta that the world No.2 will look to revive her form. It was here, in 2012, that Saina won an astonishing final over Li Xuerui in three draining sets....

Indonesia Masters 2020, a world tour Super 500 event, will be played between January 14 and January 19 in Jakarta. PV Sindhu, seeded fifth, is the only Indian to be seeded at the tournament. Sindhu will start her campaign against Aya Ohori of Japan. Defending champion Saina Nehwal will also open her campaign against a Japanese player in Sayaka Takahashi.

This IndyCar season not only arrives with a new title sponsor in NTT, but it comes a fresh TV deal with NBC Sports Group. Of the 17 IndyCar races on the schedule for 2019, eight will be broadcast on NBC, and nine, including Sunday’s Firestone Grand Prix of St. Petersburg, will air on NBC Sports Network.

The 17-race schedule released Tuesday drops the oval track in Phoenix and the road course in Sonoma, California. Both COTA and Laguna Seca are road courses. “IndyCar has worked to deliver a consistency and cadence to the schedule and that is reflected again in 2019,” said Mark Miles, president and CEO of Hulman & Co., which owns IndyCar and Indianapolis Motor Speedway. “We’ve added races at a pair of tracks that know how to put on fantastic events, while returning to tracks where IndyCar has longstanding relationships on familiar race dates....

Justify is the early 7-2 favorite for Saturday’s 144th Run for the Roses that features a full field of 20 colts. Baffert trains Justify, who has just three starts, and longshot Solomini. Justify, along with undefeated Magnum Moon, didn’t race as 2-year-olds. They’ll be trying to disprove an old jinx: No horse since Apollo in 1882 has won without racing as a juvenile. Todd Pletcher will saddle four horses: Audible, the co-third choice at 6-1, along with longshots Magnum Moon, Vino Rosso and Noble Indy....

“It’s been an incredible experience but even monsters get old and creaky and that’s what’s happened to us, we’ve gotten too old and creaky,” Danea Anderson told 6 News. John and Danae were first brought together through a love of haunted houses and Halloween, visiting a haunted house on their first date back in 1984. The Waco Haunted Houses estate, advertised as one of the “best known” attractions in the country, includes the Museum of Horrors and the Texas Chainsaw Nightmare house....

Adding 16 teams would require Qatar to share games around the Gulf region. But Bahrain, Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates and Egypt cut ties with Qatar in 2017 in an ongoing political dispute that prevents flights between Doha and the boycotting countries. Speaking at a FIFA summit in Rome, Infantino said: “It will be very difficult to organize only in Qatar for geographical reasons. … And the geopolitical situation is complex....

Unlike sashimi, sushi does not necessarily involve raw fish. In fact, sushi simply refers to the small balls or rolls of vinegar-flavored cooked rice. These rice rolls are then wrapped in seaweed and garnished with vegetables, egg, raw fish, cooked fish, or other foods. That said, when enjoying sashimi or sushi that contains raw fish, it’s important to be aware of the health risks. These can include consuming disease-causing bacteria or parasites....

Well-known community manager for Infinity Ward, Robert Bowling, had this to add to any fans who are trepidatious about buying the $15 map pack: It can certainly be said that anybody playing the game on Xbox LIVE will be getting their money’s worth within the first few months. Certainly if someone were to invest the money for the map pack, they would likely agree with Bowling’s opinion. In the end, it will be up to each individual to make the decision to purchase the maps or not....
