Johnny Manziel much improved as Alouettes fall late to Redblacks

Roger Federer said respected umpire Mohamed Lahyani was wrong to get out of his chair to give Nick Kyrgios a controversial pep-talk at the US Open on Thursday which sparked a row over impartiality of officials in the sport. Lahyani stunned fans when he climbed down from his chair in the second set of Kyrgios’s second round match against Pierre-Hugues Herbert of France on Court 17 to seemingly berate the Australian for a lack of effort. Kyrgios went on to pocket 19 of the next 25 games to win 4-6, 7-6 (8/6), 6-3, 6-0, setting up a third round clash with five-time US Open champion Federer on Saturday.
