A really touching story of family and #TransJoy, shared by Ellia Green - he’s recently started playing rugby again with the Sydney Convicts, 9 years after winning an Olympic gold medal. 👏

🥇 Italy’s Matteo Santoro is admirable, authentic, and achieving great things - and still only 18.

He’s now a world champion at #AQUASingapore25, with synchro partner Chiara Pellacani.

Two weeks ago, he came out publicly as gay alongside his boyfriend who’s also an elite diver.

@thebodyserve.bsky.social 1st-Timer at NBO Toronto this week, I see graphs around promoting a gradual goal to achieve prize money gender equity by 2027‽ Is this a campaign you can educate listeners on? Why all the drip-drip-drip instead of just turning on both faucets and paying women equal now?

So, BBC allegedly chose not to renew Nick Kyrgios after an internal revolt.

But... they knew all of this when they hired him last year.

The only thing different is that he's been an a-hole to Jannik Sinner since then.

Now, suddenly, his brand of dickery is no longer "good for the game."

One of the guys on 'Hang Up and Listen' insisting Jannik Sinner is 'the villain' in the rivalry because most of the French crowd were cheering for Alcaraz. But like who hates this face? Who can get angry at a pale kid with absolutely no rizz.

One thing I dislike more than MAGA bros is MAGA-light bros. They should say what they mean so I can despise them at full throttle.

Wipe your tears, Fonsies. Draper was mid last year, and two years ago Sinner, ranked like 7, had reached his “ceiling.” João Fonseca is still on the come up. #rolandgarros #FrenchOpen 🎾
Jack Draper wins 6-2, 6-4, 6-2 against Joao Fonseca

Hard to believe that Draper was barely a factor on clay last season, he's an all surface player now without question. Probably the 3rd best player of the season so far.

They’re showing #FrenchOpen tennis fans eating the giant croissants. Price is supposed about 32€ in Paris. Anyone know how much they cost inside Roland Garros? 🎾🥐?

Star Power in Paris

Welp! THAT'S the last time a grand slam schedules Joao Fonseca on anything other than a high-capacity show court

The deafening buzz around Joao Fonseca keeps growing as an army of boisterous Brazilian fans flood Court 7 to see him dole out a dominating win over Hubert Hurkacz.
