The Roland Garros women’s final left everybody with a wild sensation; it faced the top 2 WTA ranked players in the planet, the american and world’s number 2, Coco Gauff, and the belarusian and world’s number 1, Aryna Sabalenka. A match that was destined to happen in Paris, a match that everybody was expecting, just as the men’s final was decided, by today’s top players in the category. Gauff came out on top after winning the match 2 sets to 1, but the real story came afterwards.
In the post-match press conference, Sabalenka gave quite the comments for the media to lick their whiskers. “I think she won the match not because she played incredible…just because I made all of those mistakes“, voiced the world’s number one. She later even claimed that if Iga Swiatek had beaten her in the semifinals, the polish would have gotten the better of the american. The winner of the french major had the opportunity to talk about the matter.
Bailes antes de la batalla
Coco Gauff surprised by Aryna Sabalenka
Ahead of Wimbledon, the world’s number two had the chance to give a sense of her conditions towards ‘The Championships’ and to give a take to what Sabalenka had to say. “Obviously some of the things that were said in the presser, I was a bit more surprised about,” claimed Gauff, “but I’m not someone to hold a grudge. I said to my team, ‘if she apologizes I will be fine and we’ll move on.”
Both tennis players posted a TikTok video of them dancing at Centre Court a couple of days ago, hinting that the american got just what she asked for. “She did (apologize privately), she did again when I saw her before practice”, explained the two-time major champion, “Aryna and I, I feel that we got along pretty well befor that. It wasn’t really hard to accept that apology. I understand that things weren’t translated as how she meant it to be.”
Coco Gauff and Aryna Sabalenka look to face each other again
Both women are on great form towards Wimbledon, but Gauff hasn’t had the success she would desire in the grass courts. “My next goal is obviously to have a good result here. I’ve lost in the fourth rounds a few times so I would love to get past that stage.” Certainly, Gauff has 3 eliminations in the fourth round at Wimbledon, the farthest she has reached in the tournament.
“I would love to win this, but I’m a big believer in just conquering one step at a time“, added the american, “If I get past that stage, I will start thinking about the winning.” A rematch between them would mean that they would face wach other in the final. Everybody is yearning this to happen, not just the laureated athletes. “
Gauff’s road towards the title
- R1 – D. Yastremska
- R2 – A. Zakharova
- R3 – S. Kenin (28)
- R4 – D. Kasatkina (16)
- QF – I. Swiatek (8)
- SF – J. Pegula (3)
- F – A. Sabalenka (1)

Week 5 Thursday Night Football Statistical Review: Banged-up 49ers find a way against Rams
Mac Jones and company came through for the 49ers: Injuries continue to ravage San Francisco's roster, but Jones looked plenty comfortable at the helm, aided by Christian McCaffrey and a slew of unsung heroes at wide receiver. Crucial mistakes doomed the Rams: While Los Angeles finished ahead in the PFF noise-canceled score metric, the team's two lost fumbles and overtime mishap were the deciding factors. Estimated Reading Time: 2 minutes The San Francisco 49ers improved to 4-1 on Thursday Night Football, winning 26-23 against the Los Angeles Rams in overtime. Game Summary According to the PFF noise-canceled score metric, it was a close game that the Rams could’ve easily won. In fact, they moved the ball at a higher rate, including orchestrating a longer drive in overtime, but they made crucial mistakes in high-leverage situations — headlined by two lost […]
Hašek nominoval na Chorvaty. V týmu jsou Souček, Lingr nebo Vydra. Chybí Schick
Věříme! Takové je heslo fotbalové reprezentace před důležitou fází kvalifikace o světový šampionát. O rozdmýchání naděje na první místo vyrukují Češi bez kanonýra Leverkusenu Schicka a také dalšího útočníka Adama Hložka z Hoffenheimu. „Některé ztráty musíme nahradit týmovým duchem. Musíme ukázat, že jdeme jeden za druhého. Nominovaným hráčům věřím,“ prohlásil kouč Hašek.Mezi vybranými hráči nechybí kapitán Souček z West Hamu, který si v Premier League odpykává distanc za vyloučení proti Tottenhamu. „Jsme v kontaktu, mluvili jsme o tom. Hrál za juniorku, máme data, naběhal třináct kilometrů. Bude odpočatý. Jako správný kapitán nám vždy pomohl, doufám, že nám pomůže zase,“ zmínil Hašek.Vrací se bek Vladimír Coufal z Hoffenheimu, jenž minule scházel kvůli karetnímu trestu. Ve výběru jsou také obránce Ladislav Krejčí z Wolverhamptonu, Martin Cedidla z Jablonce nebo se vrací záložník Lingr z amerického Houstonu. O góly by se měli primárně starat útočníci Tomáš Chorý ze Slavie a Vydra z Plzně.Karty v kvalifikační skupině jsou rozdány jasně. […]
Dave Roberts is given reasons to use Roki Sasaki as the Dodgers’ official closer
Dave Roberts, the manager of the Los Angeles Dodgers, was given reasons to use Roki Sasaki as the team's official closer.This comes from the National League Division Series where the Dodgers will play the Phillies at Citizens Bank Park, the home of the Phillies, who had the second-best record in the National League, which allowed them to qualify directly for the Division Series without playing the Wild Card Series like the Dodgers, who swept the Cincinnati Reds in two games.Why Roki Sasaki should be the Dodgers' closer for the rest of the playoffsAfter throwing a perfect 1-2-3 inning for the Dodgers in Game 2 against the Reds, Roki Sasaki should be in charge of closing out games from now on. If there's one overarching problem the Los Angeles Dodgers have been facing all season, it's been their bullpen.Making his MLB […]

The 10 best NFL player matchups to watch in Week 5
A.J. Brown vs. Pat Surtain II is a doozy: Two of the NFL's best from a season ago should line up early and often in Week 5. Estimated Reading Time: 12 minutes What made NFL Week 4 so exciting is true of every fresh slate of action: Watching individual star matchups. The ability to analyze some of the NFL’s brightest and most burgeoning stars clash with one another nearly every snap shouldn’t be taken for granted. Indeed, while one play can alter an entire game flow, the victor of Week 4’s top individual wars swayed the arrow of victory in their team’s direction. Consider Ja’Marr Chase’s one catch for eight yards on two targets against Pat Surtain II. Below are 10 head-to-head collisions to circle as you determine which games to prioritize watching and/or following this weekend. Philadelphia Eagles WR […]
Krejčí se ve Wolverhamptonu dočkal prvního ocenění
Bývalý kapitán Sparty obdržel cenu v tréninkovém centru v Compton Parku od spoluhráče Fera Lópeze. „Vážím si toho. Nečekal jsem to, o to víc, když jsem cenu dostal v posilovně, takže jsem překvapený. Ani nevím, kdo hlasoval, jak to chodí, ale jsem za cenu vážně rád, vždyť jsem tu první měsíc. Jsem za trofej moc vděčný, ale obecně za to, že jsem tady,“ uvedl Krejčí s úsměvem do mikrofonu klubové televize.Ve Wolverhamptonu si cení jeho všestrannosti, kterou na úvod angažmá prokázal. „Hrál na dvou různých pozicích ve třech různých systémech a při debutu proti Newcastlu působil sebejistě i ve středu pole. Tam zůstal i proti Leedsu, když po průniku a jistém zakončení vstřelil svůj první gól v Premier League,“ uvedl klub.Krejčí se pak přesunul do obrany a pomohl „Wolves“ k vítězství 2:0 v Ligovém poháru nad Evertonem, když založil akci před úvodním gólem. Solidní výkon podal i v posledním remízovém utkání s Tottenhamem, kde tým použil […]
