Venus Williams pulls off upset win in Birmingham Classic opener​

At age 43 and ranked No. 697, Venus Williams isn't done quite yet -- especially not on her favored surface of grass. Williams upset 48th-ranked Camila Giorgi 7-6 (5), 4-6, 7-6 (6) after more than three hours at the Birmingham Classic on Monday for her first victory over a player in the top 50 in nearly four years.
Williams, a seven-time Grand Slam champion and five-time winner of Wimbledon singles, was out for six months because of a hamstring injury sustained in Auckland, New Zealand, in the first week of the year. On her return last week, she lost to 17-year-old Celine Naef in the first round of the Libema Open in the Netherlands.

Joshua Franco misses weight, stripped of WBA title before fight​

Joshua Franco (18-1-3, 8 KOs) was stripped of his WBA junior bantamweight belt Friday after he weighed 121.25 pounds for his 115-pound title rematch against Kazuto Ioka in Tokyo on Saturday. Ioka (29-2-1, 15 KOs) can still capture the title with a victory. In the event of a draw or a Franco victory, the title will remain vacant. Franco and Ioka fought to a draw in December in Tokyo in a title unification bout. Ioka, a 34-year-old who fights out of Tokyo, vacated his WBO title afterward to pursue the rematch rather than a mandatory defense against Junto Nakatani.
