I am always amazed at how easily Infantino switches from saying little ol' Fifa can't be expected to get all their referees into a country while also saying they are organising the greatest event in the history of mankind

How do you know this?

THE WAIT IS OVER 🏆 #RolandGarros

Looked like a conversation was had at the end of the Cork match that they could go short, and then the ref changed his mind. Farce!!

A 24-year-old Polish tennis player arrived in Paris last week ranked 114th in the world, with no sponsors, no guaranteed income, and no certainty she could even pay for her hotel room. She had to win three qualifying matches just to enter the French Open main draw. Prize money is only paid at the end of the tournament, so a Polish sports drink brand quietly stepped in and covered her hotel bill. Her name is Maja Chwalinska. And today, she plays in the French Open final. Before this tournament, she had won exactly one Grand Slam main draw match in her entire career. She had battled depression so severe that in 2021 she couldn't get out of bed. She underwent knee surgery in 2022. She spent years grinding through small tournaments across Europe just to stay afloat. Then she arrived in Paris, won three qualifiers, and kept winning. Zheng Qinwen. Elise Mertens. Maria Sakkari. Diana Shnaider. Nine straight matches. One set dropped. She is now the first qualifier in French Open history to reach the final. The last time a qualifier reached a Grand Slam final, it was Emma Raducanu at the 2021 US Open. Raducanu won. By simply making the final, Chwalinska has earned more prize money than her entire career combined. The runner-up cheque alone is $1.6 million. If she wins today, she takes home $3.25 million. One week ago she couldn't pay for her hotel room.

Jannik Sinner loses to Juan Manuel Cerundolo after facing physical difficulties. Hope you get better soon 🧡 #RolandGarros

Seamus Coleman – one of our greatest-ever servants and captains – has announced his proud Everton playing career spanning more than 17 years will come to an end when his contract expires next month. Thank you for everything, Seamus. 💙

Very intriguing London games (in my opinion). Jags are a playoff team, as are the Texans and the Eagles. Indy were red hot for the first half of 2025 and will be keen to bounce back and Washington were in the NFC title game in 2024 and hopefully have a fit-again Jayden Daniels.

Australian Kicker Alex Hale has announced his retirement. All the best in the next chapter, Alex! #CFL | #BetweenTheGoalposts
