British hopes in the singles ended with Cameron Norrie's four-set defeat by Alexander Zverev, on a night when Alex De Minaur and Mirra Andreeva won in straight setsNorrie and Zverev are going through the pre-match formalities. The umpire tells the players to smile big for the cameras. Not sure how easy that is for Norrie, given the British No 2, the last Brit standing in the singles, has lost to Zverev in all six of their previous meetings. The last time they played at the Australian Open was in 2024, when Norrie was denied 7-6 in the fifth set. But Norrie will at least take something from the fact he was able to push Zverev all the way then, and the fact that this is a night match, with slightly slower conditions, may help Norrie, because the rallies will be longer and more attritional and that's what he loves.

I have joined the Guardian today as an assistant sports editor in the United States.

I have joined the Guardian today as a soccer correspondent in the United States. This is why I cover the sportAs the shootout loomed to close the 1999 Women's World Cup, millions of US women's national team fans fought their nerves. But at our family's watch party in central Minnesota, nobody doubted the USWNT's chances.My relatives - all soccer fans - were fixated upon the action as each second passed, as is the nature of a soccer family like mine. As extra time progressed, they reassured me, aged five, that our team was in control. I wasn't exactly locked in to the match - it was summer in Minnesota, and my brother and sister had our own ball to kick around - but I clearly remember my family's confidence in that moment.Jeff joins the Guardian as part of our ongoing expansion covering soccer in the United States ahead of the 2026 World Cup.

I have joined the Guardian today as a soccer correspondent in the United States. This is why I cover the sportThere's an old pennant hanging on the wall of my office here in Washington DC, tucked between a poster of indoor soccer legend Steve Zungul and a photo of Pele riding a horse. Soccer," it reads, the sport of the 80s."For a century or so, soccer was always the sport of the next decade. Clear-thinking businesspeople tried everything to sell it to Americans, but soccer was always considered too foreign and exotic, an activity best practiced and consumed by outsiders. Even in the mid-80s, when I started playing, it was still very much othered. It's what drew me to the sport in the first place.Pablo joins the Guardian as part of our ongoing expansion covering soccer in the United States ahead of the 2026 World Cup.

New York mayor was joined by Senator Bernie Sanders at a Tuesday rally with nurses as strike entered second weekNew York City may be experiencing some of its coldest weather of the winter, with sub-zero temperatures biting fingers and nipping cheeks, but that hasn't prevented thousands of nurses from taking to the picket line for what is the largest nurses strike in the city's history.Almost 15,000 nurses who work for three separate hospital systems have been on strike since 12 January, holding out for increased staffing, better safety in hospitals, and improved healthcare benefits. The New York State Nurses Association (NYSNA) has pointed to the giant pay packages that hospital CEOs have received, at a time when nurses say there are too few of them to adequately care for patients.

US president's $5bn lawsuit against JP Morgan and Jamie Dimon follows a steady rise in tensions between the two menWeeks after Donald Trump's first shock election win, bosses from across corporate America were scrambling to enter the president's orbit.Business leaders ranging from the General Motors boss, Mary Barra, to Disney's chief, Bob Iger, quickly signed up to a new advisory council in 2016 to help shape the aggressively pro-growth policies of this new populist politician. Among them was the head of America's largest bank: Jamie Dimon, the chair and chief executive of JP Morgan. Continue reading...
As some medical groups cave to the Trump administration, the American College of OB-GYNs is taking a standWhen Steven Fleischman took over as president of the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists (ACOG) in 2025, he knew that controversy was practically part of the job description. But the Connecticut-based physician at Yale University School of Medicine never predicted that things would get this dire.As the premier membership group for US-based OB-GYNs, ACOG provides its more than 62,000 members with clinical guidance, educational opportunities and career help. It also advocates for abortion rights - a stance that has long made the organization far more politically active than many other major medical societies. And in the last year, the nonpartisan organization has become a leading voice in the fight against Donald Trump's anti-science crusade and the US government's embrace of medical misinformation, especially on the topic of pregnancy and childbirth.

The Super Bowl match-up will be set this weekend as a weakened Denver take on New England and two NFC West rivals clash in SeattleWhat New England need to do to win: Clean up their act. Last week against the Houston Texans, Drake Maye was blindsided too often by edge rushers Will Anderson and Danielle Hunter. The pair wreaked havoc, sacking Maye five times and forcing him into three of his four fumbles. The Los Angeles Chargers also forced two from him in the wildcard round. Denver led the league in sacks (68) in the regular season, and will be intent on causing similar damage on Sunday. But Maye can mitigate that threat if he sharpens his awareness in the pocket and takes the sack rather than rushing into impossible passes. New England's left tackle Will Campbell is very likely to lose a couple of duels with edge defender Nick Bonitto, so Maye needs to be ready for a helmet sandwich while holding on to the ball for dear life. Simply punting and giving Denver's second-string quarterback, Jarrett Stidham, tough field position may be all it takes to reach the Super Bowl. Continue reading...

Since the end of the second world war, all eyes have been on Russia. Yet Trump's increasingly erratic, hostile presidency is shattering old assumptionsOne of the things that the depleted, often denigrated British state is still pretty good at is persuading the public that another country is a threat. As a small, warlike island next to a much larger land mass, Britain has had centuries of practice at cultivating its own sense of foreboding. Arguably, preparing for conflict with some part of the outside world is our natural mindset.Warnings about potential enemy countries are spread by our prime ministers and major political parties, intelligence services and civil servants, serving and retired military officers, defence and foreign affairs thinktanks, and journalists from the right and the left. Sometimes, the process is relatively subtle and covert: reporters or MPs are given off-the-record briefings about our national security" - a potently imprecise term - facing a new threat.Andy Beckett is a Guardian columnist Continue reading...
Keep Calm and Carry On: that's not how people felt as the second world war loomed. But maybe, as Trump stalks, that old slogan is finally making senseIt has become known as the war of nerves". An apt name for a jittery, jangling time in British history, consumed with fear of what may be coming, in which the sheer unpredictability of life became - as the historian Prof Julie Gottlieb writes - a form of psychological warfare. Contemporary reports describe threats of mysterious weapons, gigantic bluff, and a cat-and-mouse game intended to stampede the civilian population of this island into terror".It all sounds uncannily like life under Donald Trump, who this week marched the world uphill to war, only to amble just as inexplicably back down again. But Gottlieb is actually describing the period between the Munich crisis of 1938 and the blitz beginning in earnest in September 1940. Her fascinating study of letters, diaries and newspapers from the period focuses not on the big geopolitical picture but on small domestic details, and what they reveal about the emotional impact of living suspended between peace and war: companies advertising nerve tonics" for the anxious, reports of women buying hats to lift their spirits and darker accounts of nervous breakdowns. We did not, contrary to popular myth, all Keep Calm and Carry On.

The US president unveiled the board with a gold logo whose resemblance to the UN emblem sparked European criticismDonald Trump's newly launched board of peace" already has a logo - and perceptive eyes have noted its close resemblance to the United Nations emblem, except reworked in Trump fashion: all in gold, and focused squarely on the US.Launched this week at the World Economic Forum in Davos, the initiative was first endorsed back in November by the UN security council, on the understanding that it would focus on brokering a ceasefire in Gaza. Since then, however, Trump has positioned it as a global body tasked with resolving international conflicts of all stripes, and to be chaired by Trump himself, in what appears to be part of the administration's latest effort to reshape the postwar global order.

It is not the US president" but Mr Trump himself who is named as chair, for as long as he wishes. He can pick his successor, decide the agenda and axe whomever he chooses -even if they have coughed up the $1bn demanded for permanent membership.

Trump administration's immigration crackdown has led some people to take drastic measures to ensure their safetyIt was a normal Tuesday morning for Mohamed when he left his San Diego, California house for his daily exercise in mid-January. But as he walked around Colina del Sol park, four US Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents approached and encircled the middle-aged father, who is using a pseudonym out of fear of retaliation from federal agents. The officers, Mohamed said, who wore jackets with ICE emblazoned on them and balaclavas that obscured their faces, asked for his green card before they began drilling him with questions about what he was doing in the park.I was terrified," Mohamed, a lawful permanent resident from Somalia, said through a translator. The ordeal ended shortly thereafter, but the experience has left a lasting impact on him. I have high blood pressure," Mohamed said about the encounter he believes was racial profiling. I used to do my daily exercises; now I don't even do that anymore because I'm scared." Continue reading...
There's no shame in not knowing what he'll say next: neither does he. But that didn't stop many claiming to make sense of itIn weeks like this, the mask slips somewhat. Politicians love the illusion of control. It's the special power that differentiates them from us lower orders. They are the ones pulling all the levers. Nothing ever happens that takes them unawares. They are the ones with answers to everything. They need it to be this way. Not just for their own psyches but for ours. It's somehow comforting.And then along comes Donald Trump and our emperors have no clothes. Their limitations on view to everyone. Scrabbling around just to stand still. Trying to make sense of the world in real time, just like the rest of us. Making it up as they go along. Continue reading...

Jannik Sinner continued his title defence, Naomi Osaka won a tetchy contest and qualifier Nikola Bartunkova shocked Belinda BencicCilic has punched his ticket into round three for the first time since 2022, with the 37-year-old and 2014 US Open champ taking out the 21st seed Shapovalov in straight sets. Decent win, that. He'll face the winner of Casper Ruud v Jaume Munar.Stan is still alive! He's broken Gea in the final game of the fourth set to snatch it 7-5, finishing off with a vicious backhand winner down the line. It's got to be one of the most devastating shots in tennis hasn't it?
