Emma Raducanu to move into top 10 world rankings next month despite being dumped out of Wimbledon in second round
EMMA RADUCANU will become a top-10 player next month despite being dumped out of Wimbledon. But Britain’s Golden Girl has been told to “raise her level” as she continues to negotiate life on the tennis tour. Raducanu was beaten 6-3 6-3 by Caroline Garcia in the second round of SW19 on Centre Court on Wednesday evening. However, the 19-year-old will move UP a place from world No11 when the tournament is over, due to a quirk in the rankings system. There are no ranking points available at Wimbledon and players like Czech Karolina Pliskova - the 2021 losing finalist who was beaten by an emotional Katie Boulter on Thursday - will drop out of the top 10. Raducanu will regroup now before heading to New York for the defence of her US Open crown.

Which Chicago Cubs players are likely to get traded? Here’s where things stand with the deadline 1 month away.
Chicago Cubs closer David Robertson knows what awaits the next four weeks. Robertson, in his 14th big-league season, has been on the move ahead of the trade deadline once before and has seen plenty of teammates come and go during this month throughout the years. With the Aug. 2 trade deadline a month away, the Cubs will again be sellers. Robertson, who does not have trade protections in his contract, is expected to be on the move. “That’s the way it goes,” Robertson told the Tribune this week. “You never know how many people you’re going to run through in a season. The trade stuff is above my pay grade. It’s uncontrollable for me. So, I don’t know. I haven’t heard anything yet.” Robertson likely won’t be the only Cub jettisoned by Aug. 2. The clubhouse will look different four weeks from now, a familiar position after one-third of the 2021 opening day roster was dealt before last year’s trade deadline. Trade talks will heat up in the coming weeks. With that in mind, here’s … [Read more...] about Which Chicago Cubs players are likely to get traded?

Britain’s Covid cases jump by a THIRD in a week: Up to one in 18 people are infected in worst-hit areas… so is YOUR area a hotspot?
Covid cases have jumped by a third in Britain over the past week, with as many as one in 20 people now infected in parts of the country worst hit by the resurgence. Office of National Statistics (ONS) analysts estimate nearly 2.3million people in the UK had the virus on June 24 — up from roughly 1.7million in the previous week. Hospital admissions have also trebled in the last month, piling pressure on an already overwhelmed NHS. Though only a fraction of patients are primarily ill with the disease. Left-leaning experts have already demanded a return of mask-wearing and urged Britons to meet outside because of the uptick, driven by Omicron sub-variants BA.4 and BA.5. Some NHS hospitals have already brought back their own rules on coverings. But Boris Johnson today insisted there were no plans to reintroduce curbs 'at the moment'. The Prime Minister did, however, leave the door open to future measures by refusing to definitively rule out the return of lockdowns. … [Read more...] about Britain’s Covid cases jump by a THIRD in a week: Up to one in 18 people are infected in worst-hit areas… so is YOUR area a hotspot?
