Nuzgari Curcumia has been one of the best wrestlers in the 55-kilogram category in recent years. Since 2018, he has collected four European Championship medals (three bronze and one silver) and five World Championship medals (two silver, two bronze and one gold). He won the most valuable one in 2019 in Nur-Sultan, defeating the Kazakh Khorlan Zhakansha.

He was the hope of the Georgians in Paris

In June of this year, the Georgian competed in the Polyak Imre Memorial competition in Budapest, where he took third place with one win and two losses. Despite this, Curcumia was one of the Georgians’ greatest medal hopes ahead of the upcoming Paris Games. And this despite the fact that he would have to compete in the 60 kg category, which is also the lowest for the classic style during the Olympic competition.

Curcumia couldn’t cope with family tragedies?

According to the Georgian television station “Ajara TV”, Curcumia was found dead by his relatives in his own home in the city of Chobi. Initially, the cause of his death was unknown, but the first information appears suggesting that the former 2019 world champion may have committed suicide. However, there is no confirmation of these reports yet. The information about his death was officially announced by the Georgian Wrestling Federation.

The 27-year-old wrestler’s family has been beset by a number of misfortunes recently. This year alone, Curcumia lost both of his parents. His mother lost her battle with cancer, and his father died of a heart attack, as confirmed by his rival and mat mate, Azer Eldaniz Azizli. There is no evidence yet that these tragedies contributed to Curcumia’s death.

Basketball superstar LeBron James is staying with the Los Angeles Lakers and fulfilling the dream of the first father-son duo in NBA history. The 39-year-old has now officially signed a new contract with the Lakers, the team announced on Sunday – without giving any details.

First father-son duo in the NBA

According to consistent media reports, James’ contract runs for two years. On Thursday, his 19-year-old son Bronny James signed a contract with the Lakers that, according to ESPN, runs for three years.

This makes the first father-son duo in NBA history official. According to ESPN information, LeBron James will earn 101 million dollars (approx. 93 million euros) in the next two seasons.

Basketball star Franz Wagner has officially extended his contract with NBA club Orlando Magic and becomes one of the highest-paid German athletes in history.

Lebron waives money

This does not correspond to the maximum salary: the four-time NBA champion, who will play for Team USA at the Olympic Games in Paris, is giving up almost three million dollars.

This way, the Lakers save on luxury tax because they do not exceed the salary cap. In addition, the superstar has secured a clause that he can only be traded with his consent.

Carlos Alcaraz has reached the quarter-finals at Wimbledon, but had to play for almost three hours in his 6:3, 6:4, 1:6, 7:5 match against the aggressive Frenchman Ugo Humbert. Jannik Sinner won in three sets against Ben Shelton.

Alcaraz thrilled the audience on Centre Court on Sunday (07.07.2024) with his enthusiasm for the game and his usual fast legs, but a loss of tension in the third set cost the defending champion a clear victory.

Humbert then played well and sensed his chance for a surprise. But Alcaraz found his way back on track in the fourth round, and in the end the French Open champion continued his winning streak at Grand Slam tournaments to eleven matches in a row and can still hope for another victory at Church Road.

Round of 16 Women Arrow right Round of 16 Men Arrow right

Alcaraz recently won the title at the French Open with a final victory against Alexander Zverev. His next opponent will be Tommy Paul (USA), seeded 12th at Wimbledon, and Roberto Bautista Agut (Spain).

Sinner continues after victory against Shelton in Wimbledon

The semifinals could be a cracker against world number one Jannik Sinner. The Italian beat the 14th seeded American Ben Shelton 6:2, 6.4, 7:6 (11:9) after just over two hours and made it into the quarterfinals for the third time in a row. There, Sinner will face former US Open winner Daniil Medvedev from Russia or Bulgarian Grigor Dimitrov.
