A day prior to his 41st birthday, former India skipper MS Dhoni was in attendance at the Centre Court to watch the Wimbledon men's quarterfinal between Rafael Nadal and Taylor Fritz. Dhoni would not be complaining as the game went down to the wire and it was the 22 time Grand-Slam champion who staged a comeback to win the contest in five sets to progress to the semi-finals of the ongoing Grand Slam.
Rafael Nadal overcame an injury to beat Taylor Fritz and reach the Wimbledon semi-finals for an eighth time on Wednesday, keeping alive his dream of a calendar Grand Slam. The second seed lost the first set and had to take a medical time-out in the second but raised his game to win 3-6, 7-5, 3-6, 7-5, 7-6 (10/4) in a match lasting four hours and 21 minutes.

MADRID: Spain’s ambitions of a breakthrough on the women’s international stage at Euro 2022 have been rocked by a sickening knee injury to reigning Ballon d’Or winner Alexia Putellas. The Barcelona midfielder was expected to be one of the shining lights of the tournament until she ruptured her anterior cruciate ligament in training on Tuesday. Spain had been pre-tournament favorites with the bookmakers thanks to the rise of Barca as a dominant force of the club game. However, Putellas is the second key player ruled out in a matter of weeks after all-time top goalscorer Jennifer Hermoso also suffered a knee injury. “23 Alexias....for one dream,” Spanish sports daily Marca splashed across their front page on Wednesday with a picture of the remaining squad members. But there is no sugar-coating how devastating a blow to Spain’s chances losing Putellas is. The 28-year-old has become a icon at the Camp Nou with 90,000 chanting her name during Barca’s Champions League win over Real Madrid earlier this year that broke the world record for attendance at a women’s match. “Yesterday was the day to accept it,” said Putellas’ club and international teammate Patricia Guijarro on Wednesday. “We are desperate to get started and now we are triply determined.” Guijarro is one of nine Barcelona players still in the squad. Barca Femeni cruised to the Spanish title last season with 30 wins out of 30, scoring 159 goals and conceding just 11. They also made the Champions League final, although missed out on retaining the trophy, and a treble, after being pipped in the final by Lyon.
