Williams is into the quarterfinals, and she’s only lost to one of the women remaining at Wimbledon.

Can Roger Federer win another title at Wimbledon? We have the bracket, schedule, scores, and more, updated throughout the tournament.

They have what the Orioles need.

Last week the reigning rumor about a possible Manny Machado trade centered around the Dodgers, a team that could make it happen but a situation that didn’t entirely make sense. It just wasn’t clicking the way a major trade deadline move for a rental should. Today’s major Machado rumor makes far more sense though, for both sides.

The rumor

As The Athletic’s Ken Rosenthal tweeted over the weekend, the Dodgers and the Brewers remain the most serious teams in the Machado hunt. Читать дальше...

Will it be Harry Kane or Romelu Lukaku? Or do we have a dark horse candidate?

What teams do we want to see?

Right then. With just four teams left in the competition, it’s time to get ahead of ourselves. Who do we want in the final, and why?

Obviously those of you with a supporter’s interest know exactly what you want: your team, playing an opponent that’s just come through a 120-minute semi-final, picked up loads of red cards, and suffered a handful of non-serious (but still inconvenient) injuries. For the rest of the world, this is a question of aesthetic preferences. Читать дальше...

2018 NBA free agency began at 12:01 a.m., and headlines are already being made. Team front office executives couldn’t officially contact players until the clock struck midnight, and now that it’s past 12, the floodgates are open. Max contracts are expected to be handed out left and right, while some other free agents won’t know where they’re signing until the biggest dominos fall.

If you haven’t won one by your mid-50s, you’re almost certainly not going to.

DeAndre Ayton and Mohamed Bamba will square off on Day 4 of NBA Summer League.

Not ideal!

Virginia Tech’s offseason has been pretty eventful, to say the least, with numerous player losses and coach resignations, especially on the defensive side of the ball. It’s Justin Fuente’s third year in Blacksburg, and he’s already had to deal with a lot before Week 1 even rolled around.

Look at all the Hokies have lost on defense over the last six months:

Most of these guys were 2017 starters or potential 2018 starters.

April 2018:

This is so good.

The Los Angeles Ballers signed LiAngelo Ball on Monday and the JBA put out a press release that sounds like it was written by LaVar himself.

One year after lighting up Gonzaga as a member of the North Dakota Fighting Hawks, Crandall is ready to help Mark Few and company chase a national title.

Nick Saban said in a statement it was due to a “violation of team rules.”

The Tour de France is a big, whirling, exhilarating mess. Here’s how to watch all of it.

Here is every pair she’s worn on the court season.

Diana Taurasi is currently in her 14th year in the WNBA, she’s the league’s all-time leading scorer as well as the first WNBA player to hit 1,000 three-pointers. She’s essentially the living GOAT of the league, very similar to that guy LeBron James over in the NBA.

What else do they have in common? Taurasi has worn one sneaker for most of her career and it’s been LeBron James’ signature shoe. She’s been mostly wearing the LeBron 10s for her career but like all sneaker heads... Читать дальше...

Renard Williams was just 18 years old when he died.

Renard Matthews was a New Orleans 18-year-old who loved video games, junk food, and the Boston Celtics. So when his life was tragically cut short in a shooting June 26, his family found the perfect way to celebrate his time on the planet: by remembering him the way he’ll live on in their hearts.

Matthews’ wake eschewed a traditional casket for a more familiar setup. The young man was front and center, reclining in a chair in front of an entertainment center. Читать дальше...

Can Serena Williams recapture the magic on the grass courts of Wimbledon? We have all you need to know throughout the tournament.

The 2018 Tour de France general classification got a big reshuffling after Monday’s team time trial, setting the stage for 18 stages with everything still to be decided. (Unless you’re Nairo Quintana).

All 13 survived being stranded in the dark, but there’s still work to be done.

We have that and more in Monday’s NBA newsletter.

Devin Booker signed a five-year, $158 million early extension with the Suns over the weekend. This is a typical quick extension after Year 3 for star young players; while some who have not watched much of the moribund Phoenix Suns over the last three years may be surprised by the numbers, Booker clearly deserves. He averaged a shade under 25-5-5 last season on efficient shooting. He’s good!

In fact, despite being drafted No. 13 overall in 2015... Читать дальше...

Urban Meyer’s team has the country’s highest upside, with blue-chip backups everywhere — even at defensive coordinator.
