  • A hatched block means the outlet is affiliated with, or controlled by, a state.

Political lean describes where an outlet sits within the politics of its own country. It is never a position on a single global scale.

Political lean is comparable inside one country and not across them, which is why the bar groups by country first. Publicly funded broadcasters are not marked as state-linked.

Francisco Cerundolo advanced to the round of 16 at the US Open after defeating American Taylor Fritz 3-6, 4-6, 6-3, 6-4, 6-4. Fritz held a two set lead and broke serve in the opening game of the third set before Cerundolo shifted the momentum. The match reached a critical point in the fifth set when Cerundolo faced three consecutive break points at 0-40 while leading 3-4, but he won six straight points to hold serve and eventually break Fritz to secure the victory. This result marks the 17th top 10 win for Cerundolo, who is ranked 25th in the world, while Fritz is ranked 10th. Cerundolo joins fellow Argentine Tomás Martín Etcheverry in the round of 16, marking the first time two Argentines have reached this stage of the US Open since 2017. Cerundolo is scheduled to face Alexander Blockx in the next round. In other tournament news, American Madison Keys suffered a loss to Zheng Qinwen after leading 5-0 in the final set.
