Published

By


Savita Russo qualified for the Olympics of Paris 2024 and so on Italy will have one more judoka at the Games, scheduled from July 26th to August 11th. The Italian managed to conquer the five-circle pass thanks to the continental quota in the weight category up to 63 kg.

This quota was reserved for twelve men and women athletes, but each country could benefit from only one: the Swede Marcus Nyman (90 kg) surpassed the score of his compatriot Ida Eriksson (70 kg), who thus lost her place and it made our standard bearer one of the first to be excluded. Subsequently, a disqualification for doping occurred, which automatically decreed the passage of the continental quota into the hands of Savita Russo.

The 19 year old’s palmares is enviable, despite her young age: bronze at the Cadet World Championships in 2022, gold at the European Junior Championships in 2023, bronze at the European Championships in 2024. It will be her first appearance in the most important sporting event in the world, but she could already be an outsider considering her caliber technique. At this point the tricolor judo delegation will be composed of 12 elementseager to provide strong emotions on the tatami of the Champ-de-Mars Arena.

LeBron James Set to Make History with Third Olympic Appearance

Published

By


He competed in his first Olympics at age 19. He returned twice in his 20s. Now, just months shy of his 40th birthday, he’s about to get another taste.

LeBron James has nothing left to prove. If he lines up with the Americans once again, it’s simply because he wants to.

James is set to become the first U.S. men’s basketball player to compete in the Olympics in three decades.

The United States camp is in motion in Nevada, the starting point where they are ultimately looking for a fifth gold medal in a row.

“I’m still playing at a high level,” said James, who has two gold medals and a bronze to his name. “I still enjoy playing basketball and I have a great relationship with Team USA. It was important for me to join the guys this summer.”

James can notably reconnect with two of his former coaches, Erik Spoelstra and Tyronn Lue. He won an NBA title with each of them at the helm.

“It’s amazing how intense he is in practice,” U.S. coach Steve Kerr said. “I asked Ty and ‘Spo’ if that’s normal, and they said he’s like that every drill, every day.” READ FULL STORY HERE>>>CLICK HERE TO CONTINUE READING>>>

James won bronze in 2004 in Athens and also in 2006 at the World Championship (now the World Cup) in Japan.

Since then, the Americans have always won gold when he has donned their jersey, with a record of 36-0.

“Our only goal is to win gold,” James said.

The Americans will face Canada in a pre-season match on Wednesday.

  • Carlos Alcaraz (ATP 3) has to take a detour against Ugo Humbert (ATP 16), but is in the quarterfinals after a 6:3, 6:4, 1:6, 7:5.
  • Jannik Sinner (ATP 1) leaves Ben Shelton (ATP 14) no chance.
  • On the outdoor courts at Wimbledon, some matches have to be interrupted again due to the rain.

Playful and with fast legs: Carlos Alcaraz thrilled the crowd on Centre Court when he reached the quarter-finals at Wimbledon – but then found himself in danger at times. The 21-year-old defending champion was the more complete professional in the almost three-hour duel with the aggressive Frenchman Ugo Humbert and won 6:3, 6:4, 1:6, 7:5.

A loss of tension in the third set cost Alcaraz an even quicker win, but Humbert then played well and sensed his chance of a surprise. After that, however, the Spaniard improved again and made it to the quarter-finals. There he will face Tommy Paul (USA) or Roberto Bautista Agut (ESP).

The world number one Jannik Sinner stopped the winning streak of American tennis pro Ben Shelton at Wimbledon. The 22-year-old Italian won in the round of 16 with 6:2, 6:4, 7:6 (11:9). In the fight for a place in the round of the best four, Sinner will face former US Open winner Daniil Medvedev from Russia or Bulgarian Grigor Dimitrov.
