Good morning - we've gathered the most important sports news and overnight updates to help you start the day informed. Have a great day ahead.
Angel Reese has written herself into the WNBA record books. The Atlanta Dream forward recorded her 29th double-double of the season - 15 points and 11 rebounds - as her side defeated the Minnesota Lynx ahead of the World Cup break. The milestone eclipses the previous mark of 28 set by Alyssa Thomas in 2023. Allisha Gray contributed 23 points and 11 rebounds, while DeWanna Bonner made her Atlanta debut with seven points in 17 minutes. The win lifts the Dream to 26-14, level with Indiana for fourth.
Kamilla Rakhimova produced one of the standout results of the opening round at the US Open, beating two-time Grand Slam champion Barbora Krejcikova 7-6 (4), 6-2. The Russian needed seven match points to seal the deal but was dominant in the closing stages, winning the final five games. It marks her first ever victory over Krejcikova and her second-round appearance at Flushing Meadows for the second time in her career.
Seventeen-year-old Thea Frodin, who once played a young Serena Williams in the Oscar-winning film "King Richard", will face World No. 2 Elena Rybakina on her US Open main draw debut. Frodin earned her wildcard by clinching the singles title at the USTA Billie Jean King Girls' 18s National Championships.
Ruoning Yin stormed to victory at the FM Championship at TPC Boston, clinching her sixth LPGA Tour title with a closing 2-under 70 to finish two strokes clear of Hyo Joo Kim. Yin drained a 25-foot birdie putt on the 12th to draw level, then sealed the win with another birdie on the 18th. World number one Nelly Korda had a forgettable week, tying for 50th after a final-round 73. European Solheim Cup captain Anna Nordqvist bowed out of her LPGA Tour career with a tie for 38th.
Michele Kang's London City Lionesses have made a splash ahead of the Women's Super League campaign, signing two-time Ballon d'Or winner Alexia Putellas from Barcelona among eight new arrivals. The club has also appointed Eder Maestre as head coach on a deal running until 2028, though the ambition comes against the backdrop of an operating loss of £10.6 million for 2024-25.
Aston Villa have completed the signing of Nigerian international defender Rofiat Imuran from London City Lionesses as their ninth summer addition. Meanwhile, Charlton Athletic continue to build for their maiden WSL campaign, landing Icelandic international attacker Linda Lif Boama from Kristianstads DFF on a three-year deal - also their ninth summer signing.
Germany international Carlotta Wamser appears to be on the brink of leaving Bayer Leverkusen, with Manchester City, FC Barcelona, Chelsea, and Arsenal all understood to be pursuing the 22-year-old forward. Her absence from Leverkusen's squad for their Bundesliga fixture has intensified speculation of a deadline-day departure.
VfL Wolfsburg stayed top of the women's Bundesliga with a 2-1 win at Bayer Leverkusen, goals from Ella Peddemors and Cora Zicai cancelling out Selina Ostermeier's equaliser. Werder Bremen made it two wins from two with a composed 2-0 victory over RB Leipzig, while Eintracht Frankfurt needed Danique Tolhoek's 86th-minute strike to salvage a 1-1 draw against Nürnberg. Union Berlin remain pointless after a 1-0 defeat at SC Freiburg.
In the NWSL, Paige Metayer's rebound finish from Trinity Rodman's crossbar strike gave Washington Spirit a 1-0 win over Bay FC, while Maddie Dahlien's 52nd-minute goal saw Seattle Reign past Houston Dash by the same scoreline. Both clubs face the prospect of losing players to the US Under-20 squad ahead of the U-20 Women's World Cup in Poland.
Lea Khelifi's goal secured a 1-0 win for Juventus Women over Como in the Serie A Women's Cup, extending their remarkable run to three consecutive clean sheets. The Bianconere now boast six victories from seven outings in the competition - a record no other side can match.
