It's beyond a dream, Nadal says of 11th French Open title
- June 10, 2018
Although Thiem stood tall and broke Nadal early in the opening frame, he fell apart with a chance to knot things at five games apiece and ceded the set to Nadal at love. His lead was reminiscent of their semifinal at the French Open past year, when Nadal also held the early advantage. In Madrid, Thiem said the key was to be positive against Nadal . (more...)

Rafael Nadal vs Dominic Thiem, French Open 2018 men's final
- June 10, 2018
There was grunting and there was timewasting that was, again, overlooked by overgenerous umpiring, but ultimately there can be no arguing that he remains peerless when it comes to the brown dirt. Thiem dug in - especially in the roughly 13-minute sixth game - but he crumbled attempting to stay in the set, making four unforced errors . He broke the Austrian in the third game of the set.

LeBron James & Steph Curry Don't Want Trump Invite
- June 10, 2018
The tradition of championship teams visiting the White House has reached an abrupt stop as players and personnel voice their concerns about Donald Trump . When told about James' comment, Curry agreed with his opponent's sentiment. So Trump, to spare himself the snub, disinvited the team because, he said, they disagree with him about standing for the national anthem - even though all members of the Eagles stood for the anthem all season long.

As for France , good thing they didn't lose, because it would have caused quite the amount of tension and negativity before the tournament. "We had a lot of opportunities against a team who left us little space", said Deschamps. Chances kept coming for Les Blues but, after winning a free-kick on the edge of the box, Olivier Giroud could only get a tame header on sight. France equalised in the 78th minute as Mbappe converted substitute Benjamin Pavard's cross to notch his fourth global ... (more...)

Bangladesh women create history, beat India in Asia Cup final
- June 10, 2018
In the Indian innings, Harmanpreet Kaur, who fell off the last delivery trying to go for the maximum runs, was the only up spark in a rather tiresome performance from the other Indian batswomen. Bangladesh's chase got off to a steady start, but soon ran into trouble as openers Shamima Sultana and Ayasha Rahman were dismissed in successive deliveries. (more...)

Power picked up another shot at the short 11th, and his excellent finish was enough to ensure the overnight lead ahead of the logjam in a share of second which included Mickelson and Koepka.

- June 10, 2018
Marouane Fellaini still has a contract offer on the table from Manchester United , the Premier League have confirmed. But as more time passes, the likelihood of him staying at United becomes slimmer. 'Certainly he's a player where you can change the system of play. The youngster looked unperturbed by the challenge that awaits him at Old Trafford, the prospect of playing in front of 75,000 every other week, but that is one that he may relish come August, by the looks of him.

Judge hits two-run homer, Yankees down Jays in 13 innings
- June 10, 2018
Yanks slugger Aaron Judge is also out of sorts right now as he set an Major League Baseball record with eight strikeouts in Monday's doubleheader, so perhaps Estrada can continue to take advantage of his timing being off. Toronto has lost six of seven overall, and 14 of its past 17. Toronto has now lost 10 of their last 11 home games and have dropped seven straight divisional games and are now 8-17 against AL East opponents. (more...)
