“There were some little ups and downs,” Jannik Sinner said after his 7-6 (3), 7-6 (4), 2-6, 7-6 (4) second-round win over Matteo Berrettini at Wimbledon on Wednesday. “Which is normal for five sets.”. There may be a lesson in these words from the world No. 1. Hiccups,...

The first paycheck from new job is always a milestone moment, but for Serena Williams, it was downright meme-worthy. Appearing this week on the famous YouTube talk show "Hot Ones," where celebrities chow down on progressively spicer chicken wings while chatting with host Sean Evans, Williams hilariously recalled the time when she tried to deposit her first $1 million at her bank's drive-through ATM.

Practicing the return of serve is a crucial foundational element in every player’s game. For every game you’re not serving, you’re returning. Of the three, position is the most fluid. There are several factors that go into deciding where to receive: where the opponent likes to serve (an important pattern to observe during the match), along with the pace and spin of the ball. The sooner you can detect which kind of serve can be expected, and where it will go, the sooner you’ll be able to identify how close to the baseline to stand and which side to inch toward.

Tip of the Day: Master the return of serve

Centre Court kicks off with a cracker. Alcaraz and Tiafoe have split their two previous matches. Tiafoe won, perhaps surprisingly, when they met on clay in Barcelona in 2021. Alcaraz won, a bit less surprisingly, their five-set semifinal at the US Open two years ago. That victory helped Launch Alcaraz...

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.

Sonay Kartal can strike the ball with force. Her serve is crisp and her forehand is a weapon. She certainly does not look like a player ranked 298 on the WTA tour. She even gave second-seeded Coco Gauff a tough first set in the third round at Wimbledon. The problem...

Coco Gauff runs past Sonay Kartal into fourth round at Wimbledon

When Coco Gauff won the first eight points of Friday’s third-round match, talk in the Wimbledon radio booth turned to Yaroslava Shvedova’s "Golden Set" against Sara Errani in 2012. Gauff, up 2-0, was one-third of the way to a perfect 24-for-24 points, but when her next shot found the net, British qualifier Sonay Kartal was on the board.

According to Shakey's website, this pizza parlor is only in California, North Carolina, and Washington state in the U.S. now. This was my family's go-to pizza joint when my father was stationed with the Air Force outside of Omaha, Nebraska. We liked it so much, that when we were transferred again, it was hopeful we'd find another one.

It’s rare to see a doubles match on Centre Court during the first week of Wimbledon. But it’s not every day you say good-bye to the best player your nation has seen since the stylishly Slam-winning days of Fred Perry himself. On Thursday, that player, Andy Murray, joined his brother, Jamie—himself a two-time Wimbledon mixed champion—for an elegiac late-afternoon spin through the old stadium, and a tribute led by Sue Barker afterward.
