Stefanos Tsitsipas down 0-6 1-6 to Daniel Galan This will take some comeback from the favorite...

The first upset in the women's draw. Qualifier Daria Snigur takes out #7 seed Simona Halep 6-2 0-6 6-4. On the opposite end was Beatriz Haddad Maia who got a double bagel 6-0 6-0 over Ana Konjuh.

wins Women's U-20 World Cup beating defending champions 3-1 in the final. It's the exact reverse of the 2018 final where Japan won 3-1.

Alonso vs Hamilton collision at Spa. Hamilon cut down on Alonso and is out of the race.

Well, that 82 yard preseason punt might be the only one on Matt Araiza's NFL resume. He did admit to having sex with that 17 year old girl which classifies as statuory rape (funny how such allegedly liberal state like California has a very non-liberal age of consent at 18 years old).

Bagnaia doing his trademark mid-season heroics but once again the first few rounds will cost him a shot at the title IMO. Same old story as in 2021. Meanwhile Ducati has picked Bastianini over Martin for the second works seat in 2023.

Linda Fruhvirtova makes her first GS MD appearance and Fernanda Contreras Gomez has made it through qualifying for the third GS in a row!

Fuck 10 year hockey contacts, Julio Rodriguez might sign a 13-, 16- or 18-year contract with Mariners Well, Mariners famously didn't have money to sign Alex Rodriguez or Randy Johnson long-term 20+ years ago so they maybe learned a lesson or two since then. https://www.mlb.com/mariners/news/julio-rodriguez-extension-with-mariners

Sadly multiple hosts for global championships seems to be the new craze and it's not only related to sharing costs. The UEFA 2020 mess being hosted all across Europe (and Baku) was the final nail in the common sense coffin. It's not going to work. There is no aura of a championship event at all. Obviously Poland and Slovenia matches will have full audience but not so sure about the rest. Even TV makes no sense. It was like 5-6 am in Brazil & Cuba when their match was played?

Yup, nobody is taking volleyball seriously it seems. 11 am start on a working day. Insane.

Viktoria Kuzmova has qualified for the Main Draw @hckošice Same thing for probably one qualifier nobody wants to draw in R1 Linda Noskova.

TVP Sport will show these champs so if anyone's up for a Polish commentary that's available

and will play in the Women's U-20 World Cup so a rematch from the previous 2018 edition. vs will be the 3rd place match. got eliminated in the group stage for the second time in a row.

Main Draws are out. As expected Novak Djokovic has withdrawn due to being un-vaccinated and therefore ineligible to enter the country

The Symbicort Empire lives on after all Then again people stopped caring about cross country skiing as the pinnacle of winter sports as a result

Angelique Kerber is pregnant. She wants to come back and play 2024 Olympics.

This is the swelling around Adrianna Sułek's hamstring. Thankfully her season is done

Yeah, Garcia is playing Top 10 level tennis for a few weeks. She's not exactly a random opponent. Plus she has most aces served in WTA this season, even more than Rybakina

Kinda good week for sport! Grammatikopolou has basically half of Maria Sakkari's WTA winner trophies now The win over Bronzetti is definitely an upset. In lesser news, Caroline Garcia has won WTA 1000 in Cincinnati - her third WTA title this season (all three on different surfaces). That 2017 season is no longer a fluke.

39 medals for at the combined Champs. Only the four rich "old West" countries won more

Marika Popowicz is so old she was in the previous NR relay 12 years ago

nailed it!!!! Silver medal Skrzyszowska & Kielbasinska with a GOAT change! 42.61 NR!!!

Alright, let's see if Polish women can actually finish the relay.. dropped baton alert...
