The U.S. Open will expand its main draw to 15 days, the United States Tennis Association (USTA) said on Wednesday, kicking off a day earlier than the usual Monday opener for the tournament’s first weekend start in the Open Era.

The schedule change will see the men’s and women’s singles first rounds play out over three days from Sunday, Aug. 24.

The added day will allow main draw access for another 70,000 attendees or more, after a third straight year of record-breaking attendance in 2024.

The Sunday opener will include six new ticketed sessions, with day and night sessions for the famed Arthur Ashe Stadium and Louis Armstrong Stadium. –Reuters

The Black Starlets’ technical team, led by Coach Stephen Frimpong Manso, will conclude their Southern sector player scouting exercise in the Greater Accra region next week.

This initiative aims to identify talented young players born after January 1, 2009, from across the region.

The Greater Accra scouting exercise, which has been divided into three segments, will kick off at the Tema Sports Stadium on Tuesday, April 22, 2025, before moving to Madina Astro Turf on Wednesday, April 23, and later to Carl Reindorf Park in Dansoman on Thursday, April 24, 2025.

The screening process involves a rigorous selection exercise, ultimately leading to the selection of top prospects for the U17 National team’s pool of players.

This scouting exercise is part of the Ghana Football Association’s efforts to develop the next generation of players for the Black Starlets.

The Southern sector screening exercise, which began in Cape Coast, has already made stops in Koforidua and Ho in the Eastern and Volta regions, respectively.

The Black Starlets coaching staff have been actively scouting talents across various regions. Recently, they conducted scouting exercises in Northern Ghana (covering Brong Ahafo, Northern, Upper East, and Upper West regions) and the middle belt (covering Ashanti, Western, and Western North regions).

Black Queens conclude Senegal Training Tour with defeat

Net News Ghana

The Black Queens of Ghana concluded their nine-day training tour in Senegal with a gritty yet disappointing 1-0 loss to the Teranga Lionesses in their second international friendly.

Despite a commendable display, the Queens came up short, unable to find the back of the net as Senegal seized on a defensive slip-up to snatch victory in Dakar.

The solitary goal in the second half served as a harsh reminder of the fine margins between success and failure, leaving the Black Queens with valuable lessons to absorb as they fine-tune their preparations for the upcoming TotalEnergies Women’s Africa Cup of Nations (WAFCON).

The two friendlies played during their training camp will undoubtedly prove beneficial as the team returns home to refine their strategies ahead of the tournament.

Although the defeat is a setback, the intense matches and training sessions in Senegal have provided the head coach Kim Lars Björkegren and his technical team with crucial insights into the team’s match fitness and tactical awareness.

Ghana won the first game 1-0 after Evelyn Badu headed home a beautiful cross from Princess Marfo, despite being a player down following Anesthesia Achiaa’s red card in the 63rd minute.
