Novak Djokovic has never been the most muscle-bound tennis player, nor the fastest, nor the most powerful. That being said, he has always been the strongest. “He’s like a Ferrari,” said Ulises Badio, the Argentinian physical therapist who worked with the athlete for five years. Djokovic is, without a doubt, a standout player. At 39 years of age, and despite the inevitable odds at this point in his career, the man known as Nole continues competing against rivals half his age, and shocking the world with his continued ability to rise to the greatest challenge. So it was on Tuesday,…

The Giants are one of the few clear sellers and have one of the most obvious trade chips in Luis Arraez. However, he’s also open to staying around via an extension. “Yes, why not?” Arraez said to John Shea of The San Francisco Standard about the possibility. “Especially because this organization gave me a big opportunity to improve my defense. I would love to come back here. We’re still in the season, and I don’t think about that right now. But in the future, let’s see what happens. I’m open to listen to whatever they want to say to me.” For…

BRUSSELS — President Donald Trump’s interference with FIFA’s disciplinary measures ahead of the U.S.-Belgium match had unintended consequences: He fired up the Belgians. After limping through the group stage and first knockout round, Belgium cleaned the floor with the U.S. in the round of 16, after Trump intervened to help overturn a suspension for America’s key attacker, Folarin Balogun. The Belgian squad wasted no time in trolling Trump after the match, as a viral clip from the team dressing room showed the players jiving like the U.S. president to his favorite campaign rally anthem: Y.M.C.A. by the Village People.

Spain can take a step closer to a mouthwatering World Cup semi-final with France when they face Belgium in Los Angeles tonight. The European champions have looked imperious after overcoming a slow start against Cape Verde and have not conceded a single goal during the tournament. And with Lamine Yamal yet to hit top gear, there should be more to come from Luis de la Fuente’s men.

Two years ago, there were more than a million applications for jobs in the federal public service. But between April 1, 2025 and March 31, 2026, that number fell by nearly 30 per cent, to less than 735,000. The number of job ads the government posted was also down almost 40 per cent, while the number of people who left the public service, including retirements and resignations, increased 12 per cent.

The battle over birthright citizenship hasn’t ended for President Donald Trump despite a June 30 Supreme Court ruling that rejected his executive order declaring that children born to parents who are in the United States illegally or temporarily are not American citizens. “I will be asking for a Rehearing by the United States Supreme Court, IMMEDIATELY,” he said this week on his social media platform Truth Social, saying so-called birth tourism networks, which arrange for non-U.S. citizens to come to the country solely to give birth, have become an immense industry. “This miscarriage of justice will destroy America if they…
