Top seed Djokovic had not played since he was disqualified at Flushing Meadows earlier this month after hitting a line judge with the ball in the fourth round against Pablo Carreno Busta, his first defeat of the season. But he returned to action in typically composed fashion in Italy, dispatching world number 87 Caruso 6-3 6-2. Djokovic, who received a bye for round one, took just 84 minutes to claim the victory and will face Mario Cecchinato or Filip Krajinovic in the last 16....

The Serbian had not dropped a set before the contest on No. 1 Court, but had shown signs of discomfort late in his round-four victory over Adrian Mannarino. The pain in his right arm seemingly intensified during the first set against Berdych and Djokovic - who could have gone world number one by winning the title - succumbed having lost a tie-break and fallen behind 2-0 in the second, much to the disappointment of the crowd....

European soccer’s governing body said in a statement that Azeri club Inter Baku and Romania’s Targu Mures had been given one-season suspensions along with the Ukrainian side who were beaten by Sevilla in last season’s Europa final. UEFA said the bans would apply to the next season in which the clubs qualify for European competition and would be in force for the next three campaigns. The ruling body did not give any further details and said the full decisions would be published next week....

How Does A Solar Car Battery Charger Work? Like the huge solar panels you see on the roofs of houses and in large fields, solar car battery chargers work using photovoltaic (or PV) cells that convert solar energy into electrical energy by generating an electrical current. Given that the sun is constantly releasing huge amounts of energy, solar car battery chargers have a (potentially) endless supply of power that can be used to fuel your car....

RELATED: Genshin Impact: How to Get Mystic Enhancement Ore and What It’s For Updated November 22, 2021, by Nahda Nabiilah: Over one year after Genshin Impact was released, the game has now grown to include a variety of contents, such as fishing and boat riding. However, one thing remains the same: chest hunting.

The Fourth Round has a handful of matchups without an obvious favorite, most involving teams outside the Premier League. We’ve also seen two all-Premier League matchups, including Manchester City beating Arsenal and Brighton dumping out holders Liverpool. With the matchups taking place this weekend and Derby vs West Ham to close the show on Monday, January 30, there are bound to be contests that are deadlocked after the full 90 minutes....

Consider just the last half year: though a consortium led by Citigroup won a bid to take an 85 percent stake in a midsize Chinese bank, regulators refused to let Citigroup hold more than 20 percent, leaving the bank in local hands. Though top officials had welcomed private equity as a force for reform in China, regulators later cut back the size of the stake the Carlyle Group was allowed to take in a machinery company....

The battery in your car is there to serve one purpose: to provide enough amperage to start the engine. After the engine is running, and the alternator is spinning, the battery acts as a load. If you add a second battery, it’s going to act as a second load when the engine is running because the alternator keeps both batteries charged. When One Battery Just Isn’t Enough One battery is good, so two must be better, right?...

The Clippers coach told reporters Saturday he “could care less” if the Warriors are upset, but his comments were taken out of context.MORE: NBA predictions | Julius Randle talks smack to Draymond Green In an interview with Grantland published Oct. 6, Rivers said a team needs a couple breaks to win the loaded Western Conference. “You need luck in the West,” he said. “Look at Golden State; they didn’t have to play us or the Spurs....

Oz’s communications director, Brittany Yanick, said in a statement that Fetterman, who currently serves as Pennsylvania’s lieutenant governor, “consistently puts murderers and other criminals ahead of Pennsylvania communities.” “John Fetterman’s even trying to hide his record from voters by running TV ads saying he’s tough on crime. His positions—including releasing one-third of inmates onto our streets—says otherwise as does the fact that he hired two convicted murderers on his campaign,” Yanick said....

The reality TV star opened up in an episode of Keeping Up With The Kardashians when she told her sisters that she couldn’t pass the baby bar. On the show, Kardashian is seen speaking to attorney Jessica Jackson, who revealed she needed a score of 560 to pass but only managed 474.

Los Angeles may have won Sunday’s game, but Paul George may have still taken an L — after the final buzzer sounded. Cameras caught him and Dallas’ Luka Doncic talking after the game ended. It looked like a pretty nice moment of George praising Doncic’s excellent play in a losing effort; nothing strange about that at all. Here’s where things got odd: George took off his jersey while the two talked, looking as if he wanted to offer it in a jersey swap....

After being eliminated by Charlotte Flair and Becky Lynch during the women’s rumble, Nia Jax returned to the ring after beating up R Truth to take his spot at number 30 in the men’s rumble. She looked dominate after eliminating Mustafa Ali and attacking Randy Orton and Dolph Ziggler. After unsuccessfully eliminating Rey Mysterio, she became the subject to a superkick, 619, and an RKO, from out of nowhere, from all three men before getting eliminated for the second time that night....

As seen above, Bosa took dry humor jabs of sarcasm over his spur-of-the-moment reflex of desparation. He wasn’t wrong, however, in remarking, “I shot through”. In fact, shot out of a cannon would be more accurate. That’s because Nick Bosa’s sack on Wilson clocked at an incredible 2.3 seconds from the snap. Good enough for the 4th fastest sack of the young NFL season, according to Next Gen stats....

Liverpool fans were left sweating when the giant sportswear manufacturer and Barcelona apparel sponsor appeared to leak the blockbuster transfer via its online store.

Was the tweet a jab at Freeze? The internet certainly thinks so.

On Twitter, Stew Chisam, the president of Hi-Rez Studios, the developer of Paladins: Champions of the Realm, highlighted the similarities between Brigitte and a Paladins character named Ash. Ash and Brigitte’s designs do indeed look very similar; both women are clad in bulky, angular armor that includes the same shapes (the chest plates are both pointy, for example), both have stern expressions, and both women wield huge weapons too....

An anonymous user (and a supposed developer within Blizzard) going by the name of BlackwatchFiles has leaked an extensive amount of information about Overwatch’s alleged next hero on Imgur, such as concept art and an extensive biography. Named Psyren, the supposed new character looks like a cross between Symmetra and Sombra, and is allegedly a speedy defensive hero whose skill set revolves around the use of a retractable sword, as well as some limited tanking abilities....
