Picture of the day
Dan the marathon man
Dan Evans created history when he climbed off the canvas to win the longest-ever match at the US Open.
Evans looked dead and buried against Russian Karen Khachanov when a gruelling encounter in blistering conditions took its toll and he trailed 4-0 in the fifth-set decider.
But the 34-year-old, whose season has been disrupted by injury, poor form and prioritising the Olympics, launched the ultimate comeback, winning six games in a row to claim an amazing 6-7 (6) 7-6 (2) 7-6 (4) 4-6 6-4 victory.
There were also wins for Katie Boulter and Jack Draper on an excellent day for Britain, although Emma Raducanu lost.

Mum’s the word for Harriet
Harriet Dart hopes to give her mum a dilemma on Wednesday.
Dart, whose mum Susie has stepped up to coach her at the tournament, is taking on Marta Kostyuk in the second round aiming to make it through the Friday’s third round.
The problem is, Susie is scheduled to go home on Friday in time to resume her job as a teacher ahead of next week’s new term.

Why are you making commenting on The National only available to subscribers?
We know there are thousands of National readers who want to debate, argue and go back and forth in the comments section of our stories. We’ve got the most informed readers in Scotland, asking each other the big questions about the future of our country.
Unfortunately, though, these important debates are being spoiled by a vocal minority of trolls who aren’t really interested in the issues, try to derail the conversations, register under fake names, and post vile abuse.
So that’s why we’ve decided to make the ability to comment only available to our paying subscribers. That way, all the trolls who post abuse on our website will have to pay if they want to join the debate – and risk a permanent ban from the account that they subscribe with.
The conversation will go back to what it should be about – people who care passionately about the issues, but disagree constructively on what we should do about them. Let’s get that debate started!
