What Did The Ball Ever Do To You, Sir?
While I have no way of knowing exactly what was on world No. 44 Nicolas Almagro’s mind, he poured a lot of it onto this unsuspecting tennis ball during yesterday’s match against No. 86 Yuichi Sugita at the Stockholm Open. ...

Debate Prep Is Hard<em></em>
As a celebrity, he had a history of saying improper things, and he was in trouble following a leaked tape of himself at his most offensive.

Nobody was taking Noah Droddy’s picture, which seemed strange considering the rail-thin runner’s recent rise to relative fame has been as much about his sensational (for the track world) ill brah appearance as his fast races, and the unlikely combo of the two. ...
