STAN WAWRINKA'S US Open triumph signals the end of the tennis season's Grand Slams and there were plenty of positives for the British contingent in New York despite Andy Murray's quarter-final exit.
Andy's brother Jamie lifted the doubles crown with Brazilian sidekick Bruno Soares while Dan Evans and Kyle Edmunds both hit career-high rankings following their singles exploits at Flushing Meadows.
The Murrays, Evans and Edmund are all in the GB team for the Davis Cup semi-final against Argentina in Glasgow this weekend, where the Brits are 5-11 favourites at Marathonbet to make the final and the visitors are priced up at 3-1 by Skybet.
Today's sporting action is pretty sparse but there's the likes of WTA Tokyo Open tennis and Major League Baseball so feel free to share your tips here.

Good to see a quarterback this morning that has no fear factor, a quarterback that isn’t afraid to make mistakes, the plays that Ben Roethlisberger is prepared to make are the plays that win Championships,
The 29 yard touchdown Ben Roethlisberger to Antonio Brown in the second quarter when 4th and 1 is a play not many successfully achieve yet Big Ben also did it pre-season
Week one has started 2/4 for me but with no odds on tips and a double stake joint NAP/NB on Pittsburgh Steelers points this morning it’s profit yet again
?
No odds yet for some of week 2 games but a couple of early fancies here

Antonio Brown over 95.5 receiving yards, to score a TD and Steelers to win @ 9/2 *WIN*
Rams @ 49’ers under 43 points @ 10/11 *WIN*
Does this mean I’m an expert on QB’s now?
Good work, Jack.
I have no idea of your knowledge of the sport so I couldn’t say yes or no, you yourself should be able to answer that question so I can’t understand why you would need to ask,
I class myself as an expert analyst through the knowledge I have for this sport and many more, also through the work I have done and working with people who I was luckily enough to be given the chance to learn from, i eat, live and breathe sport
I understand that you clearly know your stuff very deeply. You just seem to have an obsession with digging out Rodgers though which fair enough, I understand you don’t rate him, but the constant digs….he’s not going to read them.
A Jordan Reed TD away from the full house last night but small profit none the less.
Antonio Brown Over 88,5 Receiving Yards @ 5/6 @ PP – 2.4 points **WIN**
Eli Rogers Over 34.5 Receiving Yards @ 5/6 @ 365 **WIN**
Jordan Reed TD @ 23/20 @ BV – 2 points **LOSE**
Brown TD + Over 80.5 Rec Yards
Reed TD Over 49.5 Receiving Yards
3/1 @ Skybet – 1 point **LOSE**
Will add week one totals when first week two bet is posted.
2.4 points the stake on Rogers.
Well in, hopefully be a profitable NFL season for us all. And the NHL starts next month!
Good tipping on Antonio Brown Jordan was on it last night! Hopefully a profitable season to come.

Not sure the Passer ratings say a great deal Shawn Hill doesn’t appear in there yet he was solid didn’t turn the ball over and more importantly the vikes got the W, which was all he was asked to do by Zimmer
John does that mean D Marino and J Kelly were overated because they didn’t win the big one. I always look to what you great tipsters post and value your judgement .it has helped me profit many times and long may it continue..I still think Rodgers is in the top 4 QBs in the league and will be in the hall of fame ?
Jordan next week game philly v Chicago seen 13/8 for Philly any thoughts mate I was quite impressed with c wentz on his debut.
