Algerian boxer Imane Khelif targets LA Olympics in 2028 after brushing off Donald Trump criticism

Algerian boxer Imane Khelif, who was the subject of global attention during the Paris 2024 Games, says she’s aiming to defend her Olympic title at Los Angeles 2028 and brushed off criticism from President Donald Trump.

The Algerian – a cisgender woman who won gold in the women’s 66kg boxing competition – came under an onslaught of online abuse after defeating Italian boxer Angela Carini in just 46 seconds in a preliminary match, with transphobic commentators incorrectly calling Khelif “a man.”

Lando Norris claims victory in dramatic opening F1 race of the season as Lewis Hamilton disappoints in Ferrari debut

Lando Norris claimed a dramatic victory in the opening race of this year’s Formula One season in Australia on Sunday.

The British driver was able to fend off the challenging conditions and the threat of four-time reigning champion Max Verstappen to top the podium and kickstart his season with the maximum 25 points.

Norris started the race in pole after McLaren dominated Saturday’s qualifying – his teammate Oscar Piastri rounded off the front-row to start in second.

But even after McLaren’s imperious qualifying form, Norris was wary of the threat of Verstappen from third on the grid – and he was right to be.

In a race heavily impacted by safety cars and – in the latter stages – rain, Verstappen never allowed Norris the comfort of a big lead and…

Rare, disallowed penalty causes controversy as Real Madrid beats Atlético Madrid in Champions League last 16

There is almost always drama when local rivals Real Madrid and Atlético Madrid play each other, but Wednesday’s match in the last 16 of the Champions League takes some beating.

The result – Los Blancos progressing to the quarterfinals of the tournament after a penalty shootout win – is all too familiar, but the circumstances in which it happened is anything but.

The controversy centers around a disallowed penalty during a dramatic shootout, where the video assistant referee (VAR) determined that Atlético’s Julián Álvarez had double-kicked his effort.

The moment gave Real Madrid an advantage on which it capitalized, but it also sent confusion and anger swirling around the stadium on a memorable night of Champions League action.

The soul of college basketball – and the madness of March – is alive and well in the mid-majors

The NCAA tournament might be college basketball’s most high-profile showcase of the desperate, win-or-go-home style of basketball that makes March one of the most special times of the year.

But before those games, before millions of people fill out their brackets and start putting their faith in schools they’ve never heard of, potential Cinderella stories battle for their basketball lives.

In front of loud crowds in small gyms, the madness is already spreading – and the soul of college basketball is wonderfully, mercifully, alive.

Take, for instance, the Coastal Athletic Association (CAA) tournament, contested over the last few days in Washington, DC’s CareFirst Arena – the 4,200-seat arena in southeast Washington that is sort of the little cousin to Capital One Arena in Chinatown where the NBA’s Wizards and NHL’s Capitals…

Tiger Woods suffers ruptured Achilles tendon in latest injury setback

Tiger Woods announced Tuesday that he has suffered a ruptured left Achilles tendon, forcing him off the course for a lengthy period of time as he recovers.

“As I began to ramp up my own training and practice at home, I felt a sharp pain in my left Achilles, which was deemed to be ruptured,” Woods said in a post on X. “This morning, Dr. Charlton Stucken of Hospital for Special Surgery in West Palm Beach, Florida performed a minimally-invasive Achilles tendon repair for a ruptured tendon.”

Woods added, “I am back home now and plan to focus on my recovery and rehab, thank you for all the support.”

While Woods did not include a timeline for his return to the game, the Cleveland Clinic reports that most Achilles ruptures take between four and six months to heal.

It’s the…

System needs to ‘reinvent itself’: Tennis has an anti-doping procedural problem, critics say

For months, the tennis world has simmered with controversy in the wake of two doping cases involving top-ranking players: first, men’s player Jannik Sinner and months later, women’s player Iga Świątek.

And when the World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA) announced on February 15 that Sinner had accepted a three-month ban to settle his case and avoid it going to the Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS), it thrust the issue back into the spotlight once again, particularly as the ban length means the Italian player won’t miss any grand slam tournaments.

“The anti-doping process is just all over the map, and it’s completely rogue,” Vasek Pospisil – a 2014 Wimbledon men’s doubles champion – told CNN Sport. “There’s absolutely no trust, that’s for sure.”
