Play was halted for over an hour before it resumed and Alcaraz defeated Zverev 6-3, 6-1. No, we’re not pollen your leg. Alcaraz, the defending champion, was preparing to serve midway through the third game of the match when a… Source link

The 2022 US Open men’s singles final is set. It will be a showcase of tennis’ future. The 23-year-old Casper Ruud and 19-year-old Carlos Alcaraz Garfia will square off at Arthur Ashe Stadium on Sunday after walking away with big wins in the semifinals. Not only will a first career Grand Slam title be at stake for both players, the winner will also ascend to the No. 1 ranking on the ATP Tour. Here’s how each of them reached that point on Friday, with Ruud dispatching Karen Khachanov of Russia… Source link

The San Diego Padres were never going to catch the Los Angeles Dodgers in the NL West after their trade-deadline flurry, but they were expected to comfortably make the playoffs. Maybe they will eventually run away with a wild-card spot, but it hasn’t been easy. The Padres are 10-13 since the deadline. Fernando Tatis Jr. got suspended for PEDs. Josh Hader has been a surprising disaster. Not much has gone right. It doesn’t get easier for the Padres on Monday night. The Padres face the San… Source link

Here we are on the middle Sunday of Wimbledon 2022, and unlike the past, there’s play happening all day. Starting in 2022, the typical day of rest on middle Sunday is no more. On Day 7, the first day of Round 4 (also known as the Round of 16), we’ll see Novak Djokovic and Carlos Alcaraz, as well as Frances Tiafoe and Tommy Paul, two of the four American men left in the tournament. To find out what happened on Day 6 — a major gut punch of a day that featured the eliminations of Coco Gauff,… Source link

Carlos Alcaraz burst onto the world tennis scene less than a year ago, and now he’s taking down giants. On Saturday at the Madrid Open, he became the first player to ever beat Novak Djokovic and Rafael Nadal at the same clay-court event. He’s 12th player (and the youngest ever) to beat them at the same event overall, and just the fifth player to beat them in back-to-back matches (the first since Roger Federer in 2010). The Spanish teenager, who turned 19 on Thursday, defeated world No. 1… Source link

Carlos Correa has long been a brash, outspoken leader of the Houston Astros. Now, he’s on the way out. The former Astros shortstop has agreed to a three-year, $105.3 million deal with the Minnesota Twins, according to Fox 26 (KRIV) and ESPN’s Jeff Passan. Per Passan, the deal contains opt-outs after both the first and second seasons, making it very similar to the deal Trevor Bauer signed with the Los Angeles Dodgers last offseason. Essentially it’s a one-year contract with two player options,… Source link

Baseball is a grind — and the fantasy version of the game is no different. And because it’s a grind, baseball features streaks. Hitters can get hot at the plate, seemingly seeing beach balls thrown at them. Pitchers can get hot on the mound, too. And of course, both can get freezing cold. In this space, we’ll take a weekly look at who’s hot and who’s not — and whether you should believe in the streak. (Editor’s note: All stats derived before game action on Sunday, April 18) HOT… Source link

Carlos Rodón has entered the history books. (AP Photo/David Banks) One month ago, Carlos Rodón was battling for the fifth starter spot in the Chicago White Sox rotation, after undergoing Tommy John surgery, dealing with shoulder issues and getting non-tendered by the team. On Wednesday, he was completing the 20th no-hitter in White Sox history. The left-hander entered the history books against the Cleveland Indians, allowing no hits in nine innings for the second White Sox no-hitter in as… Source link
