Nick Kyrgios Gets Much Needed Boost With First Win Since 2022

Australian Nick Kyrgios won his first match since 2022 as he fought back from a set down to beat American Mackenzie McDonald 3-6, 6-3, 6-4 at the Miami Open on Wednesday. Kyrgios's career has been blighted by injuries in the last two years and he had to retire from his first round match at Indian Wells earlier this month. The flamboyant 29-year-old had suffered pain in his surgically reconstructed right wrist - a procedure that left him on the sidelines for 18 months. "It has been a long journey, even to just get to the start line of matches and be scared to just finish them," Kyrgios said. "To come off and get a win and feel like I belong again was special," added after the one-hour, 43-minute victory.

Algerian boxer Khelif ‘not intimidated’ by Trump as she targets second Olympic gold in LA

LONDON: Algerian Olympic boxing champion Imane Khelif, at the center of a gender row at the Paris Games, is targeting a second gold in Los Angeles and says she will not be intimidated by Donald Trump. The US president last month signed an executive order barring transgender women from competing in the female categories of sports. Trump had previously said the 25-year-old fighter had transitioned from being a man, even though that is not the case. “I will give you a straightforward answer — the US president issued a decision related to transgender policies in America,” she told Britain’s ITV News. “I am not transgender. This does not concern me, and it does not intimidate me.
