You play in front of your home crowd, you lose the point and everyone is on their feet cheering…not for the opponent but for the beautiful game of tennis!

[US Open Tennis @usopen]

They're at it again!

Immaculate court coverage from Carlos to get the point!

“Gaza is being starved - by Israel”

[Trita Parsi @tparsi]

John Oliver:

"Gaza is starving is objectively true. But it is also slightly misleading because it is too passive.

Gaza is being starved - by Israel."

The "Community of Nations" means nothing if you can forcibly starve a people and remain a full member.

[Melinda Yasaranji @yasaranji]

That’s the exact thought that was going through my head.

[Khalifa Al Haroon - Mr. Q @iloveqatar]

The fear you experienced today is the same fear that Gaza goes through on a daily basis x100. Let that sink in.

[Melinda Yasaranji @yasaranji]

No one was ready for this 🥺

[The Tennis Letter @TheTennisLetter]

Rafa Nadal narrating the new trailer for Roland Garros 2025.

I wasn’t ready for this. 🥹🥹🥹🥹

[Swish 🍒 Tennis @Zwxsh]

Quite possibly THE most iconic piece of commentary on Rafa Nadal:

"𝐇𝐞𝐫𝐞 – 𝐚𝐭 𝐑𝐨𝐥𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐆𝐚𝐫𝐫𝐨𝐬 – 𝐈 𝐀𝐌 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐬𝐭𝐨𝐫𝐦" 🌩️

Defying all odds at his final grand slam win 🏆

The Qatar ExxonMobil Open comes to an end with Andrey Rublev winning the tournament.

I was lucky enough to see most players but even luckier to see the star or the tournament 🐈 who apparently was using the VIP Entrance to gate crash the games 😆

[Amnesty International @amnesty]

By welcoming Israeli PM Netanyahu, wanted by the ICC to face charges of war crimes and crimes against humanity, the United States is showing contempt for international justice.

[Olly Tennis 🎾 🇬🇧 @Olly_Tennis_]

😭 Both del Potro and Djokovic are in tears 🥹

Delpo wins his farewell match 👏

[Melinda Yasaranji @yasaranji]

I didn’t see that coming 🤯

[Novak Djokovic @DjokerNole]

He never liked retirement anyway. 🙌

[Namini Wijedasa @nimilamalee]

For those asking me why they didn't see stories about illegal foreigner-run businesses in 'The Sunday Times', it's because you didn't read. Check, too, the posts after this one.

I'm trying not to swear. #SriLanka

[Melinda Yasaranji @yasaranji]

To Andy, from the fans 💜

[Namal Kamalgoda @Namalkamalgoda]

Talk is cheap. This is your opportunity to actually help the environment. Please contribute to the habitat restoration of Kumana Villu.

[Melinda Yasaranji @yasaranji]

Was lucky to watch him live in Doha. His emotions were our emotions and we (your fans) would do it all over again. Thanks @andy_murray for the journey ❤️

[Wimbledon @Wimbledon]

You made us dream.
You made us believe.
You made us cry.
And you made us proud.

[Melinda Yasaranji @yasaranji]

Rafael Nadal may not have won Roland-Garros 2024 but his legacy won! Congratulations to @iga_swiatek and @carlosalcaraz ! Future of tennis is indeed bright!

[NP @nadalprop_]

A full house just to watch Rafa Nadal practice.

Tennis isn't ready for this man's retirement.

[Roland-Garros @rolandgarros]

The King of Clay returns to his court 👋

#RolandGarros @RafaelNadal

[Melinda Yasaranji @yasaranji]

President @RW_UNP these 👇 are the priorities NOT researching on Buddha’s teaching and AI!

[Yasuni Manikkage @ManikkageYasuni]

My 51 yr old neighbour died at home. I had to give CPR to him in his bathroom. Desperatly called Suwaseriya, but they did not have any available ambulances nearby. We could not save him on time..

Why is funding Suwaseriya 1990 & saving lives not a priority for Lankan government?

[Namini Wijedasa @nimilamalee]

The Japanese LRT project is NOT back. #Japan maintained its consistent position that economic collaboration, including yen loans, will resume after #SriLanka signs the MOU on debt restructuring with the official creditor committee.

[Melinda Yasaranji @yasaranji]

A classic example of ‘placetaking’ where the essence of a public space is taken away to cater for the needs of a select few. ‘Galle Face’ without the ‘Isso Wade’ carts is not ‘Galle Face.’

(Watch from 25:00 onwards)

[Amalini @Amaliniii]

On Feb 5th, Ports Authority officials told the Galle Face isso vadai vendors they couldn't operate their carts along the seafront anymore. They say it's gotten crowded with unauthorised vendors but vendors with passes who have sold there for decades are also blocked. (1/6) #lka
