WIMBLEDON, England: Simona Halep’s first appearance at Wimbledon since winning the title three years is going just as good as it did the last time. The 16th-seeded Romanian reached the semifinals and stretched her winning streak at the All England Club to 12 matches by beating Amanda Anisimova 6-2, 6-4 on Wednesday on Center Court. Halep missed the chance to defend her title at Wimbledon twice, first in 2020 when the tournament was canceled because of the coronavirus pandemic and then again in 2021 when she had to sit out with a left calf injury.

Wout van Aert (Jumbo-Visma) extended his lead at the Tour de France with a ferocious attack on the final categorised climb to win Tuesday’s hilly stage, with Tadej Pogacar (UAE Team Emirates) jokingly stating he was happy to see the Belgian also drop his own team. Van Aert, who finished second in the opening three stages of this year’s Tour de France, made his move with 10km to go, launching a big attack to escape from his rivals, as well as his Jumbo-Visma team. Ad/> Defending champion Pogacar also couldn’t go with the move, but neither could his main rival Primoz Roglic (Jumbo-Visma) as the pair crossed the line amongst the peloton, eight seconds behind Van Aert.
Chris Froome (Israel–Premier Tech) has questioned whether the Tour de France should include cobbled stages, stating they add a “huge risk” to the riders. For the first time since 2018, the riders will face a significant section of cobbles on Stage 5 of the Tour de France, which includes 11 distinct pave sections. Ad/> The inclusion of cobbles has split the peloton as the General Classification riders can lose a lot of time through crashes or punctures.
