At the same time, the 2004 Cup Series champion received a Charlotte Hornets jersey with his name and the number #45 on it. Also present at the event were Denny Hamlin and Busch’s…

Yeah he probably should’ve hit me, but he didn’t.” [A version of this story originally ran in July 2020]. To say that Joan Joyce was the greatest softball player ever and a conqueror of MLB legends is probably an understatement. She was also one of the best golfers — competing on the LPGA tour for 19 years. She had a career low score of 66, drove it 30…

DUBAI: South Africa batter Lizelle Lee was named as ICC Women’s ODI Cricketer of 2021, after she finished the year as the highest run-scorer in the 50-over format. Lee’s year got off to a less-than-ideal start, getting out for a duck in the first ODI against Pakistan, but she came back strongly with two scores of 40+ and played a vital role in South Africa’s sweep. She was unstoppable on the tour of India thereafter, racking up big runs in the Proteas’ 4-1 series win. With 288 runs, including a hundred and two fifties, she ended the series as the…

Read more semi-finals. First Medvedev must come through against the huge-serving Maxime Cressy, who blasted down 28 aces and made only four double-faults against Australia’s Chris O’Connell in his third-round win.

But he turned enemies into friends and said he was enjoying his relationship with the Australian fans after he dismissed unseeded Dutchman Botic van de…

The only error that could be found in what was a perfect final few minutes of football for the Bills came on the kickoff that followed Allen’s fourth touchdown pass to Davis. Buffalo elected to have Tyler Bass send the kick deep into the end zone for a touchback, sparing the Chiefs precious few seconds that proved to be crucial in Kansas City’s effort to get into field goal range. A squib kick would have forced a return, which would have likely resulted in better starting field position, but also would have taken time off the clock. Instead, Mahomes had all…
