Head down, eyes fixed on the ground,?Laura Robson?struggled to hold back the tears.She was hobbling back to the locker room following her humiliating exit from the 2014 Australian Open two years ago. The Briton had just been humbled 6-3, 6-0 by?Kirsten Flipkens. She?made 32 unforced errors in a match that lasted just 50 minutes.Nothing was going the way of the then 19-year-old, the bright young star of British tennis, who was just starting to feel the ill effects of a niggling left wrist injury sustained in training. A week previous to her Melbourne exit, Robson had started her season by retiring from a first round match against Yanina Wickmayer at the Hobart International.Before the new season started, the problem had already led her to pulling out of the Canadian Open and in Cincinnati. At the US Open, she had managed to edge past Lourdes Dominguez Lino?and Caroline Garcia to reach the third round while recovering from intensive rehab.There must be something about that court which brings out the best in Robson. The year before, in 2012, Robson become the first British female tennis player to reach the fourth round of a Grand Slam since Sam Smith at Wimbledon in 1998. At the age of just 18, she had gracefully cruised past Samantha Crawford, then dumped out former champion Kim Clijsters?in what turned out to be the Belgians final competitive singles match before her retirement.It was the first time Robson had reached the third round of a Grand Slam in her career -- but she wasnt done. She followed up her impeccable performance with her first ever victory over a top-10 player, defeating Chinas Li Na over three sets.It took defending US Open champion Samantha Stosur to finally see off the plucky Brit -- a fitting way to go out after an incredible Grand Slam performance.Fast forward back to that crushing Australian Open defeat, and it was clear that the wrist problem had not only affected Robson as a tennis player, but as a person as she gave a lifeless press conference after the match.The next two years were somewhat a blur for Robson. Numerous surgical operations led to lengthy spells on the sidelines and a number of tournament withdrawals, as well as limiting her to a smattering of Grand Slam first-round appearances. ?But, for the first time in a long time, things are looking up for the now 22-year-old. Fridays victory over Germanys?Tatjana Maria was her eighth singles win in a a row -- 12 if you include doubles -- and set up an all-British first-round tie against?Naomi Broady?at Flushing Meadows.?It means a lot, and Im really happy with how the last couple of weeks have gone, Robson said. To win a decent Challenger and to get through some tough matches there and then three tough matches here, I feel like Ive got a lot confidence right now, she said.She will need that confidence if she is to recreate the magic of 2012 -- and despite Broady sitting 164 places above her compatriot in the rankings, Robson will be the favourite going into the tie.But history and rankings mean little to Robson as she looks to get her career back on the rails.Im going to take that into the main draw and hopefully do well, she said.Are we about to see the Laura Robson who showed so much promise all those years ago? Dont bet against her in this form... Ryan Dzingel Jersey . Once again, DeLaet finished tied for second at a PGA Tour stop on the weekend, this time at the Waste Management Phoenix Open.

FRISCO, Texas -- Tony Romos speech Tuesday was viewed by some as a concession speech, but not by?Dallas Cowboys owner and general manager Jerry Jones.Its not a goodbye, Jones said Thursday. I think Tony has got five years left of really competing for a Super Bowl. I believe Tony will be the quarterback on a Super Bowl team. I believe that strongly. Were talking generic now, and I have no plans for him not to be part of the Dallas Cowboys. Not a consideration.Romo will be active for the first time this season against the Baltimore Ravens as Dak Prescotts backup after missing the first nine games because of a compression fracture in his back suffered on Aug. 25.Jones said its possible that even with Prescotts top play, Romo will remain with the team through the end of his contract. Romo is signed through 2019.Many have speculated that Romo will play elsewhere in 2017 because of the success the Cowboys have had with Prescott. The Cowboys have the NFLs best record at 8-1, and Prescott has 14 touchdown passes and just two interceptions. He has also run for four touchdowns.Its very tenable for me to see on a long-term basis us being strong at quarterback, Jones said. Thats where we are with these two.While tenable, it might not be realistic.Romo is set to make $14 million and count $24.7 million against the salary cap next year. Prescott has a $540,000 base salary next year with a $635,848 cap number. Releasing or trading Romo would result in a $5.1 million cap savings, but he would still count $19.6 million against the cap.Jones said Prescott has played well enough through eight games to withstand a poor half or couple of games for the Cowboys not to switch to Romo.ddddddddddddWhile the Cowboys did not allow Romo the chance to compete for the starting job in practice, they are giving him some first-team snaps in practice, but Jones said that was not a concession made to the franchises all-time leader in passing yards and touchdowns.In the Jason Garrett era, the starter took all of the practice snaps with the first team, save when Romo sat out of Wednesday practices in 2014 and 15 to rest his twice surgically repaired back. This year, Mark Sanchez received just one series of work with the starters each Friday in the first nine weeks of the season.Its just a way to be ready, Jones said. I really dont want to sit here and think that we got two quarterbacks ready to play and one of them not be ready because he didnt take some snaps out there.The Cowboys are not taking away snaps from Prescott but adding snaps at the end of each team period.I think in this particular case you cant afford not to have Tony ready, Jones said.Jones called Romos speech poignant and so genuine and said the organization is benefiting from how Romo has handled the new role.If something were to happen to Prescott, he believes Romo will be ready.He is turning it on, Jones said. What you saw the other day in my mind was him turning it on. He is vested completely in being a part of a winning team. He has made that real clear. He wants to do any and everything he can do. The old adage, if we asked him to be the water boy, he wants to drown them with the water.
