Daaaaaaaaaaaamn! 👀 If there's one thing Elena Rybakina is not going to do, is panic. So, after Iga Swiatek took the opening set, the Kazakh stayed calm and focused, and absolutely demolishes the world #2 in the final two sets, 3-6, 6-1, 6-0. Can clinch a spot in the semis if Anisimova wins today.

Vacherot and Rinderknech aren't only literal cousins. Vacherot is a French name that means "person who takes care of cows". Rinderknech is a German name that means "person who takes care of cattle." Cowboy final in Shanghai.

Vacherot d. Rinderknech 4-6 6-3 6-3 in Shanghai World #204 Valentin is a Masters 1000 champion He came here as an alternate hoping to get into qualifying. He leaves as the lowest ranked man in history to win a Masters 1000 title. Couldn’t have written a better tennis story if you tried. 🇲🇨❤️

This is truly brilliant. Such a way to communicate, #USDemocracy #Voices4Victory

More Like Jasmine POW-Lini! Daaaaaang, y'all! Jasmine Paolini earns the most dominant win over a top 10 player in her entire career... against 6-time slam champion Iga Swiatek! The Italian blasts past the #2 seed, 6-1, 6-2, to set up a semifinal clash with Coco Gauff in Wuhan.

Event Horizon holds up WAY better than I thought it would. Just a gorgeous and outstandingly original and creepy movie.

In Swedish, a word for what you eat to bridge the gap between meals (or while waiting for the main course to cook) is stödmacka. It means "support sandwich." A similar word in Norwegian is ventepølse, or "waiting sausage."

In Norway, if you want to change your surname to a name held by fewer than 200 people, you must get permission from all of them.

On his first day back in office, President Trump signed an executive order ending birthright citizenship, directly violating the oath he made to uphold and defend the Constitution. We took him to court and got the policy blocked, and our work continues to stop the order for good.
