"Like Muhammad Ali, his greatness is defined by his struggle to transcend the toxic politics, discrimination and hatred of his era." My analysis of why @DjokerNole #Djokovic is the greatest champion in history (in any sport). https://t.co/JH8x1YcqPT

Canada UPSETS USA and makes history winning their first gold medal at the FIBA U18 AmeriCup.

USA had won the last seven tournaments until now.

What a moment 🇨🇦

@Gill_Gross "Prosecutors in Germany dropped criminal charges against Zverev. Judge Barbara Luders, who ordered Zverev to pay court costs of 200,000 euros, said that Zverev could now live without further blame." His lawyers said he maintains presumption of innocence. https://t.co/hnTJ6dJuel

"Zverev is doing something unimaginable more than 100 years ago, when type 1 diabetes would kill half of all patients within 2 years, and 90 percent of them within five years." My analysis after his win @RolandGarros. https://t.co/hnTJ6dJuel

Devastating news, if true. Canada faced a tough challenge last week: play Bombito in the Edmonton rain, or save him for later in World Cup. He slid on wet pitch, collided with Cornelius, and limped off after 30 minutes. Canada now down 3 top defenders: Bombito, Davies, Flores.

[TSN @TSN_Sports]

Moïse Bombito is out of the #FIFAWorldCup, per @TSNScianitti.

Bombito is set to be replaced as his surgically repaired leg is not healthy enough. The decision has been made to prioritize his long-term health.

[Christopher Johnson (The Globalite) @globaliteman]

Zverev making 75% of first serves, and 6 of 14 on break points. He's in a good position: only 1 set away from winning @RolandGarros. Coboli showed great courage in TB with drop shot and epic forehands. He didn't have to play a semi. But Zverev has more 5th set win experience.

[Christopher Johnson (The Globalite) @globaliteman]

@pavyg This sounds more like food poisoning, which wouldn't be contagious. Heartbreaking for Matteo.

[Christopher Johnson (The Globalite) @globaliteman]

@ArashMadani They'll give it to Brunson but you've got a good point there

An incredible bit of sports journalism by The Guardian here. A short summary of the playing style of all 48 World Cup nations and a short profile of all 1248 World Cup players. Bookmark and refer to the resources when watching the obscure matches: https://t.co/tdLGq8en0o

@gorya_ilada Transport is so much better than in the 80s and 90s. Skytrain, subway, klong boats, river ferries etc. It's better now than even Tokyo (my home for many years).

[Christopher Johnson (The Globalite) @globaliteman]

@dougwc1 Good points. He has beaucoup ranking points to defend later in the year. If not, he'll be facing guys like Coboli earlier in tournaments. I'd like to see him develop serve-and-volley game the way Djokovic did later in his career.

[Christopher Johnson (The Globalite) @globaliteman]

Was this Felix AA's best chance to win a slam? Relatively easy draw (no Alcaraz, Sinner, Djokovic, Shelton etc). Quarter final indoors. But Coboli broke down FAA's shaky backhand -- his better side before Toni Nadal changed his game. My analysis. https://t.co/3RvhVkUfyF

[Christopher Johnson (The Globalite) @globaliteman]

@DanPizzaGuy Agree. Needs to find extra gear and bigger weapons. Imagine if he could serve and volley with his size and range.

[Christopher Johnson (The Globalite) @globaliteman]

@missfreyja2 lol

[Christopher Johnson (The Globalite) @globaliteman]

If fans are wondering how Sinner and Sabalenka can suddenly fall apart after big leads over relatively unknown players, I'll hand you over to Mr. Andy Murray

[Andy Murray @andy_murray]

Never even liked tennis anyway.
