 Katie Boulter vs Harriet Dart - LIVE!Harriet Dart produced a dramatic comeback to beat Katie Boulter in a gruelling Battle of Britain at Wimbledon. The 27-year-old, who had lost six of the seven previous meetings between the two, trailed 6-2 in a final set tie-break and was in tears at the back of the court, sensing her opportunity had gone.But she reeled off four points in a row to level it up and then held her nerve, regaining her composure to seal a 4-6 6-1 7-6 win in just under three hours, taking full advantage of a wildly inconsistent display from Boulter. The 32nd seed, who beat Dart on her way to the Nottingham title last month, produced 75 unforced errors over the three sets, more than double Dart’s tally. Most of those came from the misfiring forehand, with the mistakes returning at the worst possible time in the home straight.Dart progressed into the third round and will face Wang Xinyu, who stunned fifth seed Jessica Pegula earlier in the day.

WIMBLEDON—Every time I enter Centre Court at Wimbledon, music runs through my head. The primary reason for this is that one of my favorite rituals in SW19 is to enter the grounds by 8:30 a.m., head to a massively vacant Centre Court, sit by myself in a familiar corner, listen to a few songs, and let Wimbledon pour through me in all its meditative majesty. Go ahead, call me a New Age traditionalist.

With retired English soccer great David Beckham watching on, Emma Raducanu said she took some inspiration from his former club in her first Wimbledon victory in two years. While Raducanu was never close to the brink of defeat in her 7-6(0), 6-3 win over Mexican lucky loser Renata Zarazua—unlike England, which trailed until stoppage time in what was eventually a 2-1 Round of 16 win over unheralded Slovakia at the European championships on Sunday—she found herself drawing parallels between her performances and that of the Three Lions anyway.

The Los Angeles Lakers struggled to find any traction in 2023. While there is no questioning the greatness of Anthony Davis and LeBron James, the rest of the roster never stepped up. This offseason, the Lakers are reportedly aggressively trying to add another star, but any championship roster is defined by the pieces around those stars. The Lakers re-signed one of those pieces today. Guard Max Christie is coming back to the team on a four-year deal.

Virginia fans of The Young and the Restless have asked where Elena Dawson (Brytni Sarpy) has been. She has not been seen or mentioned in Genoa City for quite a while. There is nothing online about Sarpy's status, and Y&R spoilers for next week do not mention the character, so fans wonder if she has been let go.
