britain's katie boulter, is through to the miami open third round, after teenage opponent brenda, fruhvirtova. evans had won, only two out of his eight matches, before this, so far this year, so no wonder it meant so much. and it was the first time he'd beaten sonego. evans will play christopher eubanks in the second round in miami tomorrow. as usual, heading into this weekend australian grand prix the big question is: can anyone stop max verstappen? the three—time defending champion is looking to make it three wins out of three this season. there might be a glimmer of hope for the rest with charles leclerc quickest. max verstappen missed 20 minutes when he damaged his floor. lewis hamilton back in 18th. the mind boggles. how do you damaging the law? maybe somebody bumped into it. maybe he went to slam on the break and put his foot through it. not too much damage! we will see. thank you. young women, who were pressured to give up their babies for adoption because they were unmarried should receive a formal apology from the government, according to the chair of the commonsjoint committee on hu
