@UrsulaSpeaks @TrackGazette Shericka finished ahead of Shacarri in the 100m final last week

[Korede Oki @okikorede]

@deabo20 @TrackGazette He stepped out of his lane and didn't stretch out his arm on time. I really don't know why he wanted to get the baton with his left hand.

[Korede Oki @okikorede]

@_esosaaa @TrackGazette Exactly. He has no experience running through curve, hence, the mistake. The 200m will help him in so many ways

[Korede Oki @okikorede]

@NanaK_Baidoo A psychologist for dropping the baton? I don't think so. It's just inexperience.

[Korede Oki @okikorede]

@realtalkwithtee As it should be

For Missionaries in disadvantaged areas/villages who have left careers and comfort to bring the lost to salvations at your own expense, God sees you and he is pleased with you!

As it should be! Thank you @Soulmedika

One of my best friend growing up is Segun

While I was senior Prefect of my secondary school, Segun was also the senior prefect of his secondary school

Segun chooses to be a Missionary even with post graduate degrees, for obvious reasons, I constantly support his ministry bcs I choose my career.

It’s like me asking Segun as a fellow Christian; “Why did you choose to be poor?”

In reality, I often envy Segun bcs I see his passion and relentless efforts to win as many souls into the Kingdom.

“And he said unto them, Take heed, and beware of covetousness: for a man's life consisteth not in the abundance of the things which he possesseth.”

Vamos, @RafaelNadal!

As you get ready to graduate from tennis, I’ve got a few things to share before I maybe get emotional.

Let’s start with the obvious: you beat me—a lot. More than I managed to beat you. You challenged me in ways no one else could. On clay, it felt like I was stepping into your backyard, and you made me work harder than I ever thought I could just to hold my ground. You made me reimagine my game—even going so far as to change the size of my racquet head, hoping for any edge.

I’m not a very superstitious person, but you took it to the next level. Your whole process. All those rituals. Assembling your water bottles like toy soldiers in formation, fixing your hair, adjusting your underwear... All of it with the highest intensity. Secretly, I kind of loved the whole thing. Because it was so unique—it was so you.

And you know what, Rafa, you made me enjoy the game even more. 

OK, maybe not at first. After the 2004 Australian Open, I achieved the #1 ranking for the first time. I thought I was on top of the world. And I was—until two months later, when you walked on the court in Miami in your red sleeveless shirt, showing off those biceps, and you beat me convincingly. All that buzz I’d been hearing about you—about this amazing young player from Mallorca, a generational talent, probably going to win a major someday—it wasn’t just hype.

We were both at the start of our journey and it’s one we ended up taking together. Twenty years later, Rafa, I have to say: What an incredible run you’ve had. Including 14 French Opens—historic! You made Spain proud... you made the whole tennis world proud.

I keep thinking about the memories we’ve shared. Promoting the sport together. Playing that match on half-grass, half-clay. Breaking the all-time attendance record by playing in front of more than 50,000 fans in Cape Town, South Africa. Always cracking each other up. Wearing each other out on the court and then, sometimes, almost literally having to hold each other up during trophy ceremonies.

I’m still grateful you invited me to Mallorca to help launch the Rafa Nadal Academy in 2016. Actually, I kind of invited myself. I knew you were too polite to insist on me being there, but I didn’t want to miss it. You have always been a role model for kids around the world, and Mirka and I are so glad that our children have all trained at your academies. They had a blast and learned so much—like thousands of other young players. Although I always worried my kids would come home playing tennis as lefties.

And then there was London—the Laver Cup in 2022. My final match. It meant everything to me that you were there by my side—not as my rival but as my doubles partner. Sharing the court with you that night, and sharing those tears, will forever be one of the most special moments of my career.

Rafa, I know you’re focused on the last stretch of your epic career. We will talk when it’s done. For now, I just want to congratulate your family and team, who all played a massive role in your success. And I want you to know that your old friend is always cheering for you, and will be cheering just as loud for everything you do next.

Rafa that!

Best always, your fan, 

Roger

Now I know why I didn't get a response from @fkerley99. This selfie was preserved for Sprint Season 2!

[Korede Oki @okikorede]

Hello @fkerley99, could you post that selfie you took at the award ceremony with Kishane Thompson and Noah Lyles?🙏🏽🙏🏽
