Novak Djokovic, Rafael Nadal could meet in 2nd round at Olympics

Top-seeded Novak Djokovic could meet his longtime rival Rafael Nadal in the second round of the Paris Olympic tennis tournament. Djokovic was drawn Thursday versus Australian Matthew Ebden and Nadal faces Hungaraian Marton Fucsovics, with the winners of those matches meeting in Round 2. “Expectations for the Olympics are high, and I can’t and don’t want to change that. It creates a personal motivation for me to approach it in the best possible way for the best possible result,” Djokovic said. The 38-year-old Nadal won a record 14 of his 22 major trophies at the French Open. He won gold in singles at Beijing in 2008, and […]

Andy Murray to retire after Paris Games

Three-time Grand Slam champion Andy Murray announced he will retire from tennis after the Paris Olympics, bringing an end to his 19-year career. Murray, 37, withdrew from the Wimbledon singles championship earlier this month after failing to recover in time from a spinal cyst procedure. However, he did manage to bid farewell to the All England Club with a doubles match alongside his brother, Jamie, before receiving an on-court tribute. Murray had previously stated he would not play this season’s hard-court swing, meaning his final opportunity to play would come at Roland Garros at the Olympics. On Tuesday, he confirmed this will […]

Slovakia upset Belgium as VAR denies Lukaku twice

Ivan Schranz scored Slovakia’s quickest goal at a major tournament to take his side to a gritty upset 1-0 triumph over wasteful Belgium in European Championship Group E on Monday. It was Belgium’s first loss in 16 matches under coach Domenico Tedesco and a flashback to their disastrous 2022 World Cup campaign, although they did have two goals ruled out by VAR. Both were from the boot of Romelu Lukaku, the first for offside and the second a handball in the buildup on a hugely frustrating day for the Roma striker in which he also missed several clear-cut chances. After the match in Frankfurt, Germany, […]

England FA chief: We have a plan if Gareth Southgate exits

English Football Association (FA) chief executive Mark Bullingham insists a succession plan is in place should manager Gareth Southgate leave this summer but said there have been no discussions with any candidates or an approach from Manchester United for the England boss. The 53-year-old cast fresh doubt over his future this week in an interview with German newspaper Bild in which he claimed if England do not attain Euro 2024, “I probably won’t be here anymore.” Southgate’s contract expires in December and he wants to delay talks over an extension until after the finals. Sources have told ESPN that the FA want him to continue through […]

Scottie Scheffler brushes off being ‘target’ at U.S. Open

Even though Scottie Scheffler won in five of his last eight starts and is an overwhelming betting favorite to capture his third major championship victory at this week’s U.S. Open at Pinehurst No. 2, the world No. 1 golfer insists that he doesn’t feel like there’s a target on his back. “Like I said, when we start the tournament week, we’re all at even par and it’s not like anybody is out there playing defense,” Scheffler said Tuesday. With his 1-stroke victory at last week’s Memorial Tournament, Scheffler became only the fourth PGA Tour player in the past 60 seasons to pile […]

Dutch midfielder Frenkie de Jong to miss Euro 2024 with injury

The Netherlands have been dealt a blow ahead of the start of the European Championships this week after Frenkie de Jong was ruled out of the tournament on Monday. De Jong, 27, has not played since injuring his right ankle in Barcelona’s 3-2 defeat to Real Madrid on April 21. Despite that, the midfielder was named in Ronald Koeman’s 26-player squad for the Euros in Germany with the expectation he would be able to feature in the finals. However, the Netherlands confirmed in a short statement that De Jong had lost “a race against time” and would not be fit enough to play any part in the tournament. Looking […]

Mirra Andreeva stuns Aryna Sabalenka to reach French Open semifinals

With the insouciance of a 17-year-old having the time of her life here, Mirra Andreeva says she and her coach work out a game plan before a tennis match — and then she forgets all about it, preferring to just wing it. Seems to be working out fine so far: The unseeded Russian is the youngest Grand Slam semifinalist in more than a quarter century. Playing in only her sixth major tournament, Andreeva got past an ill No. 2 seed Aryna Sabalenka 6-7 (5), 6-4, 6-4 at the French Open on Wednesday. On Thursday, Andreeva goes up versus another surprising player: No. 12 Jasmine Paolini, a 28-year-old […]
