As Jannik Sinner cruised to a stunning victory over Andrey Rublev in the French Open last 16 on Monday, he sent a warning to his French Open title rivals.
Russian 17th seed Rublev appeared to be a challenging challenge for Sinner, but the world no. 1 fought it out to win 6-1, 6-3, 6-4 on Court Philippe Chatrier.
“Things can go very quickly in a bad way, especially the best of five,” Sinner said.
“I’m delighted to finish it in three,” she said. These Parisian night sessions are truly unique.

The Italian, who returned from a three-month doping suspension in Rome in May, will face Kazakh Alexander Bublik, who is unseeded, in the quarter-finals.
Sinner defeated Bublik 3-1 in their previous meeting on grass in Halle, but they did not win.
After winning the US Open last year and the Australian Open for the second time in a row in January, he now has a third successive Grand Slam title in Paris.
After falling to Rublev in the final 16 at Roland Garros in 2022, Sinner gained some reprieve from his third set injury.
He fired five aces and 25 winners past a confused opponent on Monday while being in top form.
You don’t want to show your opponent anything, Sinner said of his calm on-court demeanor, but there is a storm going on inside.
“The storm was not only inside but also outside in my young career.”
In the match’s opening game, the 23-year-old saved two break points from eventual champion Carlos Alcaraz, who had defeated him in the 2024 semi-finals.
However, he only missed one set point for a first-set bagel as he surged to a 5-0 lead and won the opener.
When Rublev dropped the serve once more, Sinner took a 2-1 lead into the second set.
Rublev, a 10-time Grand Slam quarter-finalist, raised his game in the third set with the audience firmly in his step.
But his only setback was when Sinner defended himself on serve before the top seed’s first match point, when a Rublev forehand hit the net and spun wide, was when Sinner held his serve.

The huge sums Cardi B splashes out on her lavish lifestyle have been revealed as she made a savage dig at her estranged husband. The singer, 32, took to social media at the weekend to hit out at ex, Offset, with whom she shares three kids – Kulture, six, Wave, three, and Blossom, eight months.
But Cardi claimed the Migos star has not been financially helping with their kids since their split. Taking to Twitter/X Spaces, Cardi fumed: “A whole year straight, you have left me with the kids’ bills. Y’all want to know what’s the kids’ bills? Start adding.”
She then revealed the costly sums, saying: “My kids got their own driver — they pick them up from school, they drop them off and they take them to gymnastics and boxing classes. The kids’ driver is on a retainer for $10,000 a month.”

The songstress then disclosed how much the children’s tuition was going to cost. “Kulture’s school this year — you didn’t pay for it — that’s $45, 000”. You didn’t even help me pay for Wave’s school this year, which costs $35, 000.
Cardi claimed she paid a relative $3, 000 per week to care for the kids after claiming her real name was Belcalis Almánzar. The star is also said to receive $500 per day from their youngest child.

The singer continued, “We get tutoring four times a week, and Kulture and Wave get paid for it.” Each hour is $250. That’s a lot, folks.
“Kulture takes piano lessons three times per week for $300 an hour,” she says. I pay that, though I’m not sure how much for Wave’s boxing and gymnastics classes.

Offset then requested spousal support during the breakup, which upset her. Cardi went on to pay additional tuition that she had already paid or for which she had not asked.
Have I asked you for anything, she asked Kiari? You are so desperate for spousal support. And don’t forget about the food; my kids have a personal chef that works from 7 a.m. to 5 p.m. because my house’s residents don’t have time to cook.
Cardi claimed that her ex had only seen their eight-month-old child “like five times” in addition to pricing up all the activities. She made the claim that she had been attempting to save her face.

Portuguese international Dario Essugo was signed by Chelsea for £18 million ($25 million) on Monday.
The 20-year-old will be able to play for the Blues at the Club World Cup later this month after spending last season on loan at Las Palmas from Spain as they were relegated from La Liga.
At the age of 16, Essugo joined Sporting’s first team in March 2021, becoming the youngest player to do so through Sporting’s academy.

Initial agreements for Essugo and Geovany Quenda were reached in March.
Quenda will join Sporting for £44 million before moving to the end of the 2025/26 season.
As Chelsea close negotiations on a £30 million deal for Ipswich striker Liam Delap, their squad is expected to grow even more.
As the UN demands an independent investigation into the repeated mass shootings of aid seekers in the strip, Israeli forces have opened fire on Palestinians who were trying to get humanitarian aid from a distribution center in Gaza, killing at least three people and injuring more than 30.
According to health officials and witnesses, the shooting broke out at sunrise on Monday at the same Israeli-backed aid facility in southern Gaza where soldiers had opened fire the day before.
From Deir el-Balah in central Gaza, according to Al Jazeera’s Tareq Abu Azzoum, “The Israeli military opened fire on civilians without any kind of warning,” the report read.
International aid organizations have widely condemned this pattern because it makes it harder for the government to act on its own without making it possible for those in desperate need to receive humanitarian aid.
Witnesses claimed that Israeli drones and quadcopter drones regularly monitor aid facilities run by Israel’s and the US-backed Gaza Humanitarian Foundation (GHF).
According to Hisham Mhanna, a spokesperson for the International Committee of the Red Cross, about 50 people were shot in the most recent shooting, of which two were killed upon arrival. The majority of the time had been struck by shrapnel or bullets. A third body was transported to Khan Younis’ Nasser Hospital.
Moataz al-Feirani, 21, claimed he was shot in the leg as he and thousands of others approached the food truck.
He told The Associated Press that “we had nothing,” adding that surveillance drones circled overhead and that “the Israeli military” were keeping an eye on us. He claimed that the shooting broke out around 5:30 am (02:30 GMT) close to the Flag Roundabout.
UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres demanded an independent investigation into the widespread massacre of Palestinians on Monday in response to the pattern of deadly violence that has erupted around the GHF aid distribution site.
Palestinians risking their lives for food, he said, is unacceptable. “I demand that these events be investigated immediately and independently, and that those responsible be held accountable.”
Israeli soldiers fired “warning shots” at people who “posed a threat,” according to the Israeli military, who has denied targeting civilians.
The GHF has also denied that the shootings took place, despite the fact that Jake Wood, its founding executive director, left before operations even started after he questioned the organization’s “impartiality” and “independence.”
Critics claimed that the group uses its aid concentration in the south to avoid well-established international organizations as a cover for Israel’s wider campaign to depopulate northern Gaza.
After Israel partially lifted a total siege that for more than two months shut down more than two million people from receiving food, water, fuel, and medicine, aid is still only trickling in from Gaza.
The UN has previously warned that a large number of children are at risk of perishing from hunger-related causes.
At least 51 people were killed in 24 hours.
Israeli airstrikes remained retaliatory over residential areas throughout the area.
According to the Palestinian Civil Defense Agency, Israeli forces attacked a home in Jabalia in northern Gaza, killing 14 people, including seven children. At least 20 people were still encased beneath the rubble.
Another attack in Deir el-Balah claimed the lives of two more Palestinians and injured several others, according to the Palestinian news agency Wafa, and a drone strike in Khan Younis claimed the lives of two more.
In the most recent 24-hour reporting period, the Gaza-based Ministry of Health reported that at least 51 Palestinians had died and 503 had been hurt in Israeli-related attacks alone.
On June 2, 2025, Palestinian children in Nuseirat, central Gaza, wait for food at a distribution center.
Israel’s military ordered the displacement of even more civilians from Khan Younis on Monday despite receiving more international condemnation and admonition to use “great force.”
As Gaza’s 2.3 million residents are crammed into an ever-diminishing patch of land near the Egyptian border, roughly 80% of the strip is currently either under Israeli military control or designated for forced evacuation, according to new data from the Financial Times.
As officials who publicly support “voluntary migration” plans, Israel has kept its intentions a secret about its intention to permanently relocate the population of Gaza.
According to The Financial Times, the areas Palestinians are being shoved into resemble a “desert wasteland without running water, electricity, or even hospitals.”
In evacuated areas, Israeli forces positioned military installations and cleared land.
According to analysts who examined dozens of recent forced evacuation orders, the trend has gotten worse since the end of a truce in March.
Political analyst Xavier Abu Eid told Al Jazeera, “The Israeli government has been very clear about what their plan is about in Gaza.”
According to an affidavit from the US Department of Justice, a Colorado man has been charged with a federal hate crime for his alleged involvement in an attack on a pro-Israeli rally in Boulder that left eight people injured.
After the Boulder attack on Sunday that targeted a group that wanted to raise awareness of hostages held in Hamas’ 2023 attack on Israel, Mohamed Sabry Soliman was already facing a number of state charges, including attempted murder.
The suspect, according to US Attorney General Pam Bondi, will be held legally accountable for what is referred to as an “antisemitic terror attack.”
Soliman, 45, claimed in the affidavit that he had been planning the attack for more than a year. Near the suspect’s detention location, investigators discovered 14 Molotov cocktails fueled by gasoline or gasoline.
A weed sprayer filled with gasoline was also discovered at the scene along with a petrol canister in his nearby car. According to Oliman, he claimed to have learned how to create firebombs from YouTube.
The affidavit makes reference to a video that Soliman was seen holding what appeared to be Molotov cocktails while he was a victim of the attack on social media during which he was “shirtless, pacing back and forth.”
According to official records, the suspect told police he “wanted to kill all Zionist people and wished they were all dead” while being held in lieu of $10 million bail.
The violent outburst at the popular Pearl Street pedestrian mall, a four-block stretch of Boulder, came as a result of Israel’s ongoing conflict with Gaza, which has heightened anti-Semitic violence in the country.
Just one week after a man who also yelled “Free Palestine” was accused of fatally shooting two Israeli embassy employees outside a Jewish museum in Washington, the attack took place at the beginning of the Jewish holiday of Shavuot, which is observed with the reading of the Torah.
“Millions of people like this,” said one.
In Colorado Springs, a city that is 100 miles south of Boulder, Soliman and his wife and their five children reside, according to the complaint. According to the affidavit, he said he planned to start the attack after his daughter graduated.
Few more details about him were made available.
Soliman had an expired work permit and a long-overstayed tourist visa, according to US Immigration and Customs Enforcement acting director Todd Lyons.
Federal documents, which mention the Department of Homeland Security, did not mention his nationality, but the New York Times reported that he was Egyptian.
The Departments of Homeland Security and Justice did not respond to requests for comment. The FBI’s Denver office, which is in charge of the case, did not respond to emails or phone calls seeking more information right away.
The County Sheriff’s Office, Boulder County Jail,  , Boulder County Jail,  , Boulder County, Police andnbsp, Boulder County, and other agencies did not immediately respond to inquiries.
At a press conference in Boston, Lyons stated that there are millions of people like this who were allowed into the previous administration because they weren’t properly screened. That’s a significant effort, in my opinion, right now.
On June 1, 2025, police gather in Boulder, Colorado, US, following an attack that left several people injured.
Under former US President Joe Biden, ICE placed a high priority on arrests of serious criminals and demanded that officers take humanitarian considerations into account when making arrests.
A Department of Homeland Security spokesperson previously stated Soliman had entered the country in August 2022 and had applied for asylum the following month. Lyons declined to provide additional information. The spokesperson claimed that the suspect, Mohamed Soliman, is not authorized to reside in our nation.
Biden received criticism for the incident from President Donald Trump.
Trump referred to the horrific attack in Boulder, Colorado as a “terrible tragedy” and declared that it “Won’t be tolerated in the United States of America.”
Soliman entered the country on the grounds of “Biden’s ridiculous Open Border Policy.”
He wrote, “This is yet another illustration of why we must deport illegal, anti-American radicals from our country” and keep our borders safe.
According to Boulder police, four women and four men aged between 52 and 88 were taken to hospitals following the attack.
In conjunction with an event organized by Run for Their Lives, a group devoted to raising awareness of the hostages taken in the wake of Hamas’ 2023 attack on Israel, the attack took place on the Pearl Street Mall, a well-known pedestrian shopping district close to the University of Colorado.
The 88-year-old victim was a Holocaust refugee who had fled Europe, according to Rabbi Yisroel Wilhelm, the Chabad director at the University of Colorado, Boulder.
After being unexpectedly defeated by world number 62 Alexander Bublik, British Open champion Jack Draper claims he had a “missed opportunity” to reach the quarter-finals.
The 23-year-old received a reality check when Bublik, the second-lowest player in the draw, won 5-7, 6-3, 6-2, and 6-4.
The maverick Kazakh produced one of his best performances of his career, but Draper lost his way.
Draper, who has never won a French Open match before this year, described it as “a really tough loss.”
“It’s been a steep learning curve for me, despite the fact that I’ve improved significantly this year and achieved a high ranking.
The British number one was largely anticipated to keep up his explosive rise on clay and advance to a potential quarter-final against Jannik Sinner, who had earlier defeated Andrey Rublev in the last 16 match.
However, Bublik made numerous spectacular shots, particularly using the drop-shot to great effect, in his perfect victory.
Draper’s worst ranking loss since his first-round exit at Roland Garros last year.
After a tense finish, 27-year-old Bublik eventually crossed the line after being only allowed to lose one match point and save five break points.
According to Bublik, who was ranked as high as 17th in 2024, “Sometimes there is only one chance, and today, I believe it was mine.”
I was unable to let it go. It’s probably the best time of my life, in my opinion.
A sign of progress is draper disappointment.
How far Draper has come in the last year is reflected in a shock loss in Roland Garros’ last 16.
The Englishman still figuring out what his most effective game style was after a humiliating first-round defeat to the 176th-ranked Dutchman Jesper de Jong in Paris a year ago.
Draper realized he was trying to be too aggressive and sought a better balance.
Prior to the US Open semi-finals, he had his first ATP title just a few weeks later, which increased his self-assurance.
A significant factor in this was the increase in fitness.
He quickly set about using his most potent tools, first serve and forehand, on the clay after earning the biggest title of his career on the Indian Wells’ hard courts in March.
The fifth seed played maturely in his first three matches in Paris before being thrown off-kilter by Bublik, which showed he had the ability to succeed on the surface.
I find it difficult to put things into perspective, but I’m proud of what I did on the clay. “Draper said, “I think I’ve really improved.
I’ve qualified for the fourth round and am consistently playing really good tennis week in and week out, which means I’m leaving number five in the world this year.
How Draper was “extremely uncomfortable” by Bublik.
Bublik’s talent is unquestionable, but his application has received numerous questions.
Before Draper applied pressure in the tenth game, he was unbroken from the beginning of an evenly matched opening set where neither player had a chance to break.
Draper had the opportunity to serve out the opening set but Bublik stumbled, and the Briton took his.
However, Bublik recovered from an early break down to level the match when Draper’s level dropped in the second set.
In the third set, Draper appeared increasingly perplexed as he attempted to find a way to increase his lead as a result of the drop-shot’s increasing use and success.
Draper was defeated at his own game when Bublik attempted 37 drop-shots, leading to 12 victories, despite successfully using the tactic in his previous encounter with Joao Fonseca.
However, a bathroom break before the fourth set, as Draper’s serve was broken in the opening game and his late rally prevented him from regaining the lead, was in vain.
“I don’t play many games where I feel as though the situation is beyond my control,” Draper said.
Top players do that, they say. You feel very uneasy and unable to accomplish much because of them. He did that right now.
