Tensions were high at the US Open on Wednesday after Taylor Townsend defeated Jelena Ostapenko in straight sets ... as the two got into a heated confrontation that was all caught on camera.

The beef started as the two shook hands at the net ... when it appeared Ostapenko said something that set Townsend off.

"You should learn how to take an L," Townsend appeared to respond.

Drake vs. Kendrick? Cute. The real heavyweight grudge match is in the senior circuit ...  'cause Mick Jagger’s new nemesis seems to be none other than George freakin' Thorogood!

Yup, TMZ snagged the vid -- 75-year-old blues-rock legend George exited Houston’s House of Blues Wednesday following his show with The Destroyers ... only to turn back, eye a fan and drop the line ... "You tell Mick Jagger he can suck on that," pointing at the venue behind him, to a few supportive cheers, with one onlooker exclaiming "U-S-A!"

For the record -- there’s zero known beef between the "Bad to the Bone" singer and 82-year-old Mick. So either George was flexing to claim he's the boss, straight-up trolling for kicks, or just tossing Mick's name out at random 'cause of an adrenaline high.

Kim Kardashian is back in Venice, Italy, following the Jeff Bezos-Lauren Sanchez wedding ... but this time Kim's attending the famous Venice Film Festival -- and, as only KK can do, she's putting on a big show for the cameras.

Bryan Kohberger flipped out on a hotel clerk who he thought overcharged him after he booked a room on a travel website ... just months before the Idaho murders ... this according to a newly released police report.

According to cops, the now-convicted serial killer showed up alone at the hotel in Pullman, Washington, on June 30, 2022, after he booked the room through Expedia.

The docs say Kohberger made a beeline for the front desk -- where the female employee was apparently training that day -- and apparently got mad when he thought she overcharged him for the room while checking him in.

Cops say they were told Kohberger became "really upset" over being double-charged, but once she fixed the mistake, he was "nice" and even began flirting with her.

Freddie Freeman sat out Wednesday's game, but he was still spotted at Dodger Stadium putting in work ... on his nose hair, that is!!

The Los Angeles first baseman got the night off of L.A.'s tilt against the Reds because of a neck issue -- and, unfortunately for the nine-time All-Star, cameras were still locked in on him as he was relegated to the dugout.

In the fifth inning -- as the home team was up 4-1 -- Freeman was seen clearing out some hair from his nose ... and it sure looked painful.
