Portugal, Cape Verde & Brazil all in the same Stage II group Almost a shame Macau doesn't play handball much

No good news for Brazil. Beatriz Haddad Maia goes out in R1 to Nuria Parrizas Diaz who needed 11 set points(!) to win set one but closed it out 7-6(11) 6-2.

Daria Kasatkina after winning one game vs Bencic in Adelaide 2 final over the weekend manages to win TWO games vs Varvara Gracheva First Top 10 seed among women goes out in truly absymal fashion...

No. It's a career stat, not a single game stat

Unforced Error

Andreescu wasted MP in set two and was playing tragic all around making some crazy UE

Iga Świątek beat Osorio in two sets and she gets Cristina Bucsa in Round 3 who took out Bianca Andreescu in some 3-hour clown show.

No, but you are almost there

It's not some frivolity. It's the highest number per a certain category in a sport.

It's not

Dallas Cowboys beat Tampa Bay Buccaneers 31-14 in the last wild card game. First playoff win on the road for Cowboys in 30 years and first ever in their backup blue uniforms Their kicker missed 4 extra points which is a single game record since 1932! Bucs offense was as listless as the entire season and I have no idea where Brady goes from here if he still wants to play.

You like never see Giorgi losing one game in the entire match, Pavlyuchenkova is miles away from being competitive after her injury break. As a reward Giorgi gets AK Schmiedlova next before looming Belinda Bencic in R3.

Five minutes left and Poland leads Saudi Arabia by three goals. Geez, this team is going nowhere if Saudi Arabia of all teams can keep it this close

OK, so the lucky record number is 382

They even have fancy graphics to go with stats. It's not a job, it's a way of life

Nice to see some old school mascots again

Federica Sanfilippo wasn't picked up for Anterselva round and has decided to retire from biathlon. Apparently she will continue in cross country and might even show up in Livigno World Cup next weekend.

Iga Świątek got past a tricky R1 vs Jule Niemeier and didn't need three sets like at USO '22. She plays Maria Camila Osorio Serrano in R2 which should be a much easier match despite some expected support for the Colombian.

Gonna take the bait on fencing. Longest career winning streak of Valentina Vezzali?

Some Polish journalist went to Jasna to check whether it's worth travel to ski there for 'regular' tourists and why. He also stumbled upon a face @hckošicemight recognize https://www.onet.pl/turystyka/onetpodroze/jezis-maria-petra-je-tu-turysci-z-polski-zamarli/74cysef,07640b54

Netflix curse is the new black. This shapes up to be the worst AO for the hosts since forever. Even in the mid-90s they at least had Woodford & Woodbridge in doubles

Bengals hold off Ravens 24-17 and move into the Divisional round where they will play Buffalo. That fumble recovery TD ultimately decided the result as Bengals otherwise did nothing in the last 1,5 quarters on offense.
