In the last few days, two great results for South American athletics, both with the second best marks in the history of South America
 
Evelis Aguilar from clocked 49.80 in the 400 metres, a mark very close to the continental record held by Olympic medalist and fellow Colombian Ximena Restrepo with 49.64
 
Manuela Rotundo from , just 20 years old, scored an impressive 64.17 in the javelin throw at a university competition in the USA. This mark would have earned her a silver medal at Paris-2024 (she did not participate).
 
Uruguay has not won an Olympic medal since Sydney-2000 and the young Rotundo, a world junior medalist, seems like a good name to keep an eye on in the cycle. 

Aryna Sabalenka wins the Miami 1000 over Jessica Pegula 7-5 6-2 in the final. This means she further extends her rankings lead and has eclipsed the 10,000 points mark.
 
Now it's clay time, first up Charleston 500 (green) and the iconic minnow Bogota 250

Nicole in 4th is the best brazilian result ever in winter sports, amazing!

WE WON THE OSCAR, FINALLY!!!!

WE WON THE OSCAR, FINALLY!!!!

And there is it!!
 
18 yo João Fonseca wins his first ATP level championship in Buenos Aires!!
 
He is a real deal!

I'm old enouh to remember the original Kuerten craze so this will be curious how Fonseca does on tour.

Also first ATP Final for João Fonseca, he is just 18 years old!!
 
 

Ekaterina Alexandrova keeps rolling and takes out #1 seed Aryna Sabalenka in Doha R2 (in a third set TB of all things where she's historically very bad - 5 wins & 19 losses).

Honestly, not even in my wildest dreams would I have expected a result like this. Historic victories against Norway, Sweden and Spain, and a great game against Portugal. Against Denmark, only a miracle would have been needed for us to win, and I will certainly be rooting for that, but looking ahead to 2028, it is already an excellent result.

Amazing see some new Latin NOCs in the pack! Vamos Portugal and Brazil

Incredible match today, for the first time ever Portugal is qualified for a world cup quarterfinals, with group opponents such as Norway, Sweden and Spain (did we ever won Spain before? Don’t think so) and still undefeated!
 
whatever happens this has been the most incredible tournament ever for Portugal. And they still are not headlines in the sporting news at home!!! Let’s hope for tomorrow’s newspapers because today’s win was historical!
 
Im also double happy for the jointed qualification of the Portuguese speaking nations: vamos Brazil! 
 
has small hope for Cape Verde against Argentina but I knew it would be super difficult 
 

Brazil, the terror of the Nordics. Denmark, I would be careful if I were you  (Please have mercy ).

Congratulations 

Brazil is in the quarterfinals for the first time in the men's competition.

Hello from Oberwiesenthal, where there will be FESA Cup races tomorrow and Sunday
 
Spot the Brazilian, I assure you she's on the photo
 

João Fonseca do Brasil!!!! 

João Fonseca do Brasil!!!!
