question:
Sam Querrey gave the United States a winning start in its bid to reach Saturday's final at the World Team Cup.
 Querrey beat Jan Hajek 6-3  7-5 on Thursday to put the U.S. 1-0 up against the Czech Republic in the Red Group and remain unbeaten in his three singles this week.
 "So far so good " said Querrey. "I thought today was the best I played out of the three matches. So I'm pretty excited."
 Hajek claimed the first break  when Querrey ended a long rally with a forehand error  to go 3-1 up but the American player responded by winning the next five games in a row to take the opening set.
 Both players saved a break point late in the second set before Querrey broke at 6-5  converting his third match point.
 "I've been working this week to try and hit my forehand a little bigger. I felt I did that today " said Querrey. "I felt pretty much anytime I got a forehand  I was able to take control of the point."
 Querrey said his win takes the pressure off the U.S. ahead of Friday's matches.
 "A little bit  yes. I think John (Isner) can go out there and play a little more freely  which is a good thing " Querrey said. "When we have the lead  you can swing away a little bit more than if we were 1-0 down.
 "Then  the Bryan brothers  we expect them to win every match. Hopefully  they are going to do that again."
answer:
Sam Querrey


question:
NBC will broadcast the Ceremonies again in prime time tonight  at 8 p.m. Eastern. This version will have commentary from hosts Katie Couric  who was tapped to place Matt Lauer after his firing  and Mike Tirico  who replaced  Bob Costas  as NBC’s prime-time host after a nearly three-decade run.
Tirico made his prime-time debut Thursday night. The Washington Post’s Rick Maese caught up with him before the Games to learn more about his new high-profile assignment. “I think trying to be  Bob  would be stupid. And that was one of  his  bits of advice: Be yourself ” Tirico said. “So I’m going to try to do that.” For the full Q&A  scroll down to the “Olympics Corner” section of this newsletter.
For 11 straight Summer and Winter Games — dating back to 1992 —  Bob Costas  served as the familiar and reliable face of the Olympics. But  Costas  is sitting out the PyeongChang Games and has passed the torch to Tirico  who will serve as NBC’s prime-time host  starting with Friday’s Opening Ceremonies. Tirico joined the network in 2016 after more than two decades at ESPN and was a daytime host of the Rio Games. He recently spoke with The Washington Post’s Rick Maese about his new high-profile assignment.
Q: It’s not like you’re a newcomer to this broadcasting game  but did you seek out  Costas  for any advice?
A: There’s been a longtime friendship there. I don’t think that’s overstating it. And I can’t imagine this job changing hands more smoothly.  Bob  has been unbelievable in making  himself  available  if I have any questions. I know I can pick up the phone during the Games  and if I have a question  I know I’ll get an honest answer.  Bob ’s the all-time best.  Bob  set a standard for the amount of times  he  did this and the way  he  did it that likely won’t be matched ever again. So I’m not replacing  him ; I’m following  him . I think trying to be  Bob  would be stupid. And that was one of  his  bits of advice: Be yourself. So I’m going to try to do that.

A: The best piece of advice that I got from  Bob  and from Al [Michaels] before the Rio Games working daytime: You don’t have to know everything about everyone. It’s impossible. The experts at each sport have that covered. In the host role  you just need to have the overriding story lines. I’m trying to get to the top of the surface. It’s like one of those fancy Starbucks drinks — you do want to get some of the coffee  but you want to make sure you get all foam. But how has my life changed? I’m sitting in my office right now. Two years ago  I certainly would be watching a replay of a Big Ten or an NBA game from the night before. And right now I’m watching the women’s skeleton competition from Germany. And it’s the fourth different Olympic event that I’ve watched since I’ve been up this morning.
answer:
Bob Costas


question:
Outcome Health â considered among Chicagoâs most promising tech startups after it launched in 2006 while CEO Rishi Shah and President Shradha Agarwal were students at Northwestern University â delivers pharmaceutical ads to patients on screens it places in doctorsâ offices. The screens  free to doctors  show educational programming.
According to a court document filed Wednesday by a lawyer representing  Shah  and Agarwal  Webb participated in a conference call Monday regarding the investigation.
Though the inquiry is ongoing  the court filing says Webb told participants in the call that he has searched through emails and other documents â including those belonging to  Shah  and Agarwal â and conducted more than a dozen interviews. He said he had not found any evidence that senior management  including  Shah  and Agarwal  were involved in or aware of misconduct  according to the filing.
Michael Carlinsky  a New York-based attorney representing  Shah  and Agarwal  said that in light of that conference call  the lawsuit is âirresponsible and an unjustified attack on the reputations of the founders.â
answer:

Rishi Shah
