Malaysia seeks gag order on talk of jailed ex-PM's bid to reveal royal document
Malaysia's attorney-general's chambers has sought a gag order to ban public discussion of former Prime Minister Najib Razak's judicial review claim that a document exists allowing him to serve his remaining prison sentence under house arrest, according to state news agency Bernama. Najib, jailed for his role in the multi-billion dollar 1MDB scandal, is pursuing a legal bid to compel authorities to confirm the existence of and execute an "addendum order" that he said was issued last year as part of a pardon by then-King Al-Sultan Abdullah Ahmad Shah, entitling him to serve the remainder of his sentence at home. The issue has caused a huge stir in Malaysia, with disgraced political heavyweight Najib insisting the former king's addendum order was ignored by authorities when they announced the halving of his sentence last year.

Coco Gauff says she has a lot more work to do after loss to Paula Badosa at the Australian Open
Coco Gauff's retooled forehand and serve abandoned her in the worst way and at the worst time at the Australian Open. The unforced errors just kept accumulating, and so did the double-faults and break points, often followed by a palm placed over her eyes or a slap to a thigh. Add it all up, and Gauff's trip to Melbourne Park — and her 13-match winning streak that dated to late last season — ended in the quarterfinals.
