For the first time ever, a Ukrainian female tennis player has reached the Roland-Garros semi-final. Marta Kostyuk secured the milestone after defeating fellow Ukrainian Elina Svitolina in the tournament's first-ever all-Ukrainian Grand Slam quarter-final.
This match was already a victory for Ukrainian tennis. Marta continues her remarkable run in Paris, while Elina set a Grand Slam record with her sixth Roland-Garros quarter-final appearance.
The achievement comes after another devastating night of Russian attacks on Ukraine. In her post-match interview, Marta dedicated the win to the Ukrainian people and their resilience.
Thank you to both Marta and Elina for representing Ukraine so skilfully β and glory to Ukraine! ππ
@nytimes Shiny object: $1.8 billion slush fund
The real prize: Immunity from IRS audits for the whole Trump family.
My questions: What are his kids doing that, if their returns are audited, would implicate DJT too? The $2 billion from the Saudis? Or is their inclusion just a gift?
