Nick Kyrgios makes typically dramatic exit from the US Open | smhsport
The 28th seed wasn't happy during a talking-to from the chair umpire, yelling at the linesman from his changeover chair: "whistleblower" before demanding Eva Asderaki to "get him off".The tennis enigma then thundered down four consecutive aces in a spectacular 43-second game to force a tiebreaker, only to lose it as Rublev struck the first major blow.
Kyrgios didn't have to wait long, blowing a 4-0 lead in the second-set tiebreaker and then dropping serve in the sixth game of the third set before submitting after one hour and 51 minutes."That was just credit to him playing his game. Yeah, it was tough. While Rublev, who last month inflicted the quickest defeat on Roger Federer in 16 years, can look forward to a last-16 clash with Italian Matteo Berrettinni, Kyrgios's immediate playing fate remains uncertain.

‘Antibiotic resistance could kill us before climate change’ | Sky News AustraliaAntibiotic resistance is a major threat that 'could kill us before climate change does', the United Kingdom's chief medical officer has told Sky News.\n\nProfessor Dame Sally Davies, who is also chief medical adviser to the UK government, told Sky News 'at least 10 million could die every year if we don't get on top of this' - claiming more lives than currently both cancer and diabetes.\n\nAs the UK seeks to forge its own post-Brexit international trade deals, Dame Sally expressed serious concerns about countries outside of the European Union who use antibiotics in animal farming 'at dramatically high levels'.\n\nCurrently, around 70 per cent of the world's antibiotics are given to farm animals with intensive farming expanding due to a growing global demand for meat.\n\nStressing the importance of tackling the issue, she said 'antibiotics underpin modern medicine - you can't have gut surgery, replacement hips, all sorts of surgery without risking infection.'\n\nImage: News Corp Australia
