⚽️ If you've had an IV drip of the World Cup this month, might as well add another line, because the NWSL is back! The three week pause came with some serious roster shakeups, creating a buzz for the second half of the season. The moves: Lindsey Heaps heading home to Denver after her run with Lyon, Sam Kerr returning to Gotham FC where her career started, Ally Sentnor getting traded to Angel City, Kennedy Fuller moving to Bay FC, and Lilly Reale, last year's Rookie of the Year, headed to Boston in a homecoming of her own.

🎾 Champagne and grass stains, is there a better combination? Wimbledon, tennis's most prestigious slam, swings into its first week of action. It’s already been epic with the return of Serena Williams, playing her first singles match in nearly four years, with the whole place losing it before she even hit a ball. Wild card entry, 44 years old, two daughters in the stands, including her youngest who'd never seen mom play singles before. There’s not enough Kleenex in London. She came up short against her opponent Maya Joint, but she's still alive in doubles with Venus. Meanwhile, the rest of the big names are in play except for Mirra Andreeva, who was upset by 2024 champion Barbora Krejcikova in three sets. Matches on ESPN. Pop the cork, let’s do this!
