A game for Mannarino! The comeback is on.

Federer is playing a very exciting match again I see. Excitement, tension, everything. Apart from games for Mannarino.

Görges or Vekic now...I mean, I know it's WTA, but semi finals are rather possible

Kiki

Hello Karolina the tiebreak started 5 points ago

Good thing Kiki won't have this problem

Yeah because Kiki is known for mental strength

Meanwhile Bertens is putting herself in prime position for a major epic choke

I know, it's quite obvious the chance is a thousand times bigger that someone from the 1990's will be number one at some point than the chance that nobody from the 1990's ever will, just wondering if in theory it would be possible to skip the era (but of course, purely in theory, it would )

Not mathematically impossible, right?

Bertens on fire

Only in Dutch https://www.nieuwsblad.be/cnt/dmf20180709_03604205 Basically three men will start and after their turn they will hand over to three women. Fastest combined time wins.

Next year at the world championships: mixed team time trial

Five time gold medalist Hans Günter Winkler. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hans_Günter_Winkler Odd Wikipedia, mostly this line seems like it's been written by someone who narrowly missed the gold behind him:

15.10 Mitchelton-Scott 15.15 Sky 15.20 Movistar 15.25 Groupama-FDJ 15.30 BMC 15.35 EF Education First-Drapac 15.40 UAE Emirates 15.45 AG2R 15.50 Fortuneo-Samsic 15.55 Direct Energie 16.00 Lotto Soudal 16.05 Lotto Djumbo 16.10 Cofidis 16.15 Sunweb 16.20 Dimension Data 16.25 Katusha 16.30 Bahrain 16.35 Trek-Segafredo 16.40 Astana 16.45 Wanty 16.50 Quick Step 16.55 Bora

Two year old boy shot himself to death with his parents pistol in, surprise, the US. https://www.fresnobee.com/news/local/article214504689.html Now it's a matter of waiting for Trump to say all 2-year olds should be armed with guns to protect themselves against themselves.

That is one combination you don't often see

See? I swear Rwanda 2025 is gonna be amazing

Why not? They have the organization to host a world champs (and if not, Belgium is helping them and say what you want, but Belgium is experienced in hosting cycling), they have enough hotels, there are plenty of opportunities to put down some nice courses, the weather is good and most importantly, the people love cycling and these championships would 'live' among the locals as no championships have ever done before. It would basically be the exact opposite of Qatar 2016 in terms of enthousiasm.

Yes they have streets! Never heard of the Tour of Rwanda where entire villages get out and about to cheer the riders on? I'm actually not being sarcastic or something when I say I've almost never seen the atmosphere I've seen in some videos from Rwanda

Rwanda is going to go and try to get the 2025 World Championships, with Belgian support. https://www.nieuwsblad.be/cnt/dmf20180708_03603335 Belgian might have a colonial past to make up for It'd be so awesome if Rwanda gets it, those images and stuff from the races on the Wall of Kigali and around the country are just incredible

Is there a video for this? I don't know where to look

This is the kind of game where Fourcade gets 15 consecutive podiums and then you pick him (because you 'saved' him to not use all the best athletes at the beginning of the season) and right in that race he misses 6 shots and finishes 68th or something
