V Bengalúru měli na konci měsíce házet bývalí mistři světa Anderson Peters z Grenady a Julius Yego z Keni či olympijský vítěz z Ria de Janeiro 2016 Thomas Röhler z Německa. Premiéru mítinku Níradž Čopra Classic ale znemožnila aktuální napjatá situace mezi sousedními jadernými mocnostmi po dubnovém útoku na převážně indické turisty v indické části Kašmíru, z čehož Dillí obviňuje Islámábád. Indie a Pákistán se od té doby ostřelují a podnikají útoky na území druhého státu.
„S ohledem na aktuální situaci je první ročník NC Classic odložen na neurčito. Rozhodnutí jsme učinili po pečlivém zvážení a konzultaci. Nejvyšší prioritou je blaho sportovců, zúčastněných stran a širší komunity,“ uvedl Čoprův tým v prohlášení.
Mítink pořadatelé zrušili nedlouho poté, co obě země pozastavily vrcholné soutěže v národním sportu kriketu. Na oštěpařskou akci původně dostal pozvánku i Čoprův velký rival Aršad Nadím z Pákistánu, který mu loni v Paříži překazil obhajobu zlata v olympijské soutěži, v níž skončil těsně čtvrtý Jakub Vadlejch. Už po zmíněném útoku v Kašmíru ale podle agentury Reuters Čopra prohlásil, že jeho případná účast „je absolutně vyloučená“.

Timberwolves’ Nickeil Alexander-Walker finds right frame of mind at perfect time
MINNEAPOLIS — It seems so counterintuitive. To do the thing you’re trying desperately to do, you must loosen your grip.Let go, they say. Care less. If only it were that easy.For more than a week, Nickeil Alexander-Walker had been toying with different tactics to accomplish this mental release. The ball simply wouldn’t fall. He clanked 3-pointers from the right wing. Corner treys swirled in and out. He thought about luck turning in his favor. It didn’t. He rehearsed the shots he’d made earlier that morning. That didn’t help, either.AdvertisementFinally, before Thursday night’s Minnesota Timberwolves victory against the Golden State Warriors in Game 2 of the Western Conference semifinals, Alexander-Walker reframed his approach. He recalled the mindset that earned him his pivotal bench role in the first place: rebounding, defending and playing with pace. Prioritize those facets of the game, he […]

This is a question on many of your minds.So, what precisely will the New York Rangers do? Here are the details: The Rangers have been awarded the 12th pick in the 2025 NHL Draft.

Be decisive today.Exceptionalism Meets Irony: A quarterback purgatory like few othersSince Ben Roethlisberger’s decline and retirement after 2021, the Steelers have been long-term tenants in quarterback purgatory. But recently the six-time Super Bowl champs have walked themselves into a situation that goes far beyond merely having a decent-but-not-great passer. The Steelers seem to be preparing for a season with a quarterback who isn’t even their quarterback.

Edmundo indica time que pode renascer no futebol brasileiro
Edmundo em registro durante entrevista para podcast (Reprodução - YouTube) Edmundo está confiante de que o Vasco possa atingir um cenário de remontada agora sob o comando do recém-chegado Fernando Diniz. Depois de algumas semanas da demissão do técnico Fábio Carille, o time carioca acertou a contratação do novo comandante, que já deve estrear neste final de semana. Em live feita nesta sexta-feira (09), o ex-jogador alfinetou a diretoria, afirmando que o anúncio do novo técnico encobriu o vexame do time na Copa Sul-Americana, diante do Puerto Cabello, sendo uma ‘jogada’ para acalmar os ânimos. PUBLICIDADE PUBLICIDADE “Acho que agora a tendência é que o Vasco cresça. O Diniz é um excelente técnico, que consegue extrair do atleta um pouco mais do que ele poderia dar”, iniciou Edmundo. “É bem possível que ele faça um excelente trabalho à frente do […]
Felipe Melo crava técnico que fará história no Brasil: “Vejo potencial”
Felipe Melo durante o Seleção Sportv - Divulgação A lua de mel entre Filipe Luís e torcedores do Flamengo parece não ser mais a mesma. A derrota para o Cruzeiro e o empate com o Central Córdoba, na Libertadores, resultaram em duras críticas ao treinador rubro-negro. Para Felipe Melo, é preciso dosar os elogios e também as críticas nas análises. Em sua avaliação, o ex-lateral tem tudo para ter uma carreira brilhante na função como técnico, mas ainda passa por um processo de maturação onde acertos e erros irão acontecer. Por isso, se faz necessário ter muita cautela. PUBLICIDADE PUBLICIDADE “Essa oscilação faz parte do processo. Quando as pessoas pediam Filipe Luís na seleção, eu falava para ter calma e fui criticado. Tem que dar tempo ao tempo. É jovem, vejo potencial no Filipe para abrir muitas portas para os […]
