Tour de France Stage 11 results, standings: Tadej Pogacar survives crash, Abrahamsen wins
Jonas Abrahamsen out-sprinted Mauro Schmid in a photo finish after the two broke free from the peloton and held off a late challenge from Mathieu van der Poel, capping off a competitive day of racing that also featured a late scare for the defending Tour de France champion.
Three-time Tour de France winner and 2025 favorite Tadej Pogačar survived a crash after contact with another bike about five kilometers from the finish line. He fell to the pavement coming around a turn and briefly lost touch with the group of Tour de France leaders.
Pogačar was permitted to catch up with minimal damage done to his chances this year, a show of sportsmanship that became the subject of debate following the race. A UAE Team Emirates official told reporters Pogačar suffered scrapes to his arms and legs from the crash but "it's a not a big injury." The incident did ensure Ben Healy held off Pogačar and kept the yellow jersey heading into a crucial mountain stage set for Thursday.

Olympic great Michael Phelps lends swimming expertise to hometown Ravens after players ask for assistance
While many of the Baltimore Ravens players have certainly excelled on the football gridiron, some of the NFL athletes apparently struggle in the swimming pool. After defensive back Marlon Humphrey and some of his Ravens teammates admitted they did not know how to swim, the team turned to a local expert for guidance. Michael Phelps, the most decorated Olympian of all time, certainly knows a thing or two about swimming techniques. Humphrey posted a social media video calling on the retired competitive swimmer and Baltimore native to lend the city's football team a helping hand. The video showed Humphrey, safety Kyle Hamilton, offensive tackle Ronnie Stanley, and tight end Charlie Kolar standing in the pool. 'Did you know that one in three Ravens cannot swim,' Hamilton said in the video. 'Come to Ravens training camp in this beautiful aquatics center and teach us how to swim,' Humphrey adds. 4 Baltimore Ravens players plead with Michael Phelps to teach the team how to swim at their aquatics facility. Marlon Humphrey/Instagram 4 The players said 1 in 3 Ravens revealed they don't know who to swim during training camp. Marlon Humphrey/Instagram Phelps seemed amenable to the idea, replying: 'I got yall!!! Let's do it!!' Kolar said after practice Wednesday that he didn't realize Humphrey was going to post the video. 'I should have known. It's so on brand,' Kolar said. 'I thought it was going to be like a story or maybe sent to him, but I should have known better.

Lakers jersey history No. 2 — Kenny Carr
Through the 2024-25 season, the Los Angeles Lakers have had a total of 506 players suit up for them, going back to their days in Minneapolis. Some were forgettable, some were serviceable, some were good and a select few were flat-out legendary. As the Lakers approach their 80th season of existence (they were founded back in 1946 as the Detroit Gems in the National Basketball League), LeBron Wire is taking a look at each player who has worn their jersey, whether it has been a purple and gold one or the ones they donned back in the Midwest during their early years. We now take a look at Kenny Carr, who played for the Lakers in the late 1970s. Carr was a big star during his college days at North Carolina State University. He got two first-team All-ACC nods, and in three years at the school, he averaged 20.6 points and 9.2 rebounds a game. He also got himself a gold medal with the United States men's Olympic basketball team in 1976. In 1977, the Lakers made the 6-foot-7 forward the No. 6 pick in the NBA draft. In those days before the curtain rose on the Showtime era, they needed talent to put around Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, and it was hoped that Carr would help in that regard. But he didn't. He averaged 6.8 points and 4.0 rebounds in 15 minutes a game during two seasons and change with Los Angeles, and the team sent him to the Cleveland Cavaliers in a trade early in the 1979-80 campaign. Carr's production would improve somewhat after that trade. He ended up playing 10 seasons in the NBA with four different teams, and he had career averages of 11.6 points and 7.4 rebounds per game.

Dave Brailsford is back leading Ineos Grenadiers on the hunt for Tour de France stage wins
It has been only a month since Dave Brailsford was jettisoned from his role as Manchester United auditor, having ruffled plenty of feathers in the corridors of Old Trafford and Carrington in his bid to revive a great sporting institution. Now the former cycling supremo is back in the saddle just in time for the Tour de France as Ineos Grenadiers seek their own renaissance. 'He's like a kid in a sweet shop, talking about climbs and getting back to the mountains,' revealed team CEO John Allert. 'That's the battlefield that he knows and loves. We have welcomed him back into the team with open arms. He's a not-so-secret weapon for us to use and we plan on using him to the fullest extent we can.' Brailsford spearheaded British Cycling's Olympic success in Beijing and London before taking charge of Team Sky and masterminding their domination of the Tour during the 20-teens, winning the race with Bradley Wiggins, Chris Froome four times, Geraint Thomas and then Egan Bernal under the Ineos rebrand, although the glorious era was tainted by accusations the team 'crossed an ethical line'. His arrival at Old Trafford was not universally appreciated, and he clashed with staff at the club during his efforts to improve processes behind the scenes. Now Ineos owner Sir Jim Ratcliffe has redeployed Brailsford to his beleaguered cycling team, who are without a grand tour win in four years and have little hope of claiming the yellow jersey at the Tour de France, which begins in Lille on Saturday. The long-term task to regenerate the team as regular Tour de France podium-botherers is enormous after losing so much ground to the modern alphas of the peloton, Visma Lease-a-Bike and UAE Team Emirates. 'It's obvious we want to win the Tour, but there's no point just saying you want to win it,' said Allert. 'We've got to do more than we're doing, clearly, to get better than the people that are dominating it at the moment.' But in the short term, winning a couple of stages at this year's race would at least show that Ineos can compete and come out on top, if not over three weeks then in selected moments. 'Winning stages is going to be really important,' added sport director Zak Dempster. 'I think we need to be realistic in GC [general classification], but I think we need to be brave and bold and move the race where we can, and hopefully take time in creative ways. It's no secret that, face to face, there are guys who are stronger than us, that's the reality. But at the same time if we're smart then nothing's out of the question in terms of GC.' Thomas is riding in his final Tour and will largely play a support role behind team leader Carlos Rodriguez, who finished fifth two years ago, although the 39-year-old Welshman would love one last stage win to go with the three on his palmares from 2017 and 2018, the year he won the yellow jersey. 'I'd love to be competitive and go for a stage, a stage win would be amazing,' Thomas said. 'You've got to be in super great condition for that. And then obviously being alongside Carlos deep into the mountains and helping him as much as I can, off the bike as much as on it. He knows what he's doing anyway, but I think just playing a role in the team of just trying to share my wisdom – sounds a bit... but you know what I mean.' Thomas abandoned last month's Tour de Suisse after twisting his knee in a crash, but played down concerns over his fitness before the race. 'I got my foot caught and twisted, and I also hurt my hamstring and calf. The idea was to rest up properly and be ready to go again rather than continue to race and possibly make it worse or tweak something else. I got some good training in afterwards behind the motorbike, I've done the best I could. 'It was frustrating because it would have been nice to see exactly where I was at compared to everyone else rather than just training. But no issues now.' Ineos's best chance of a stage win may come in the first of two individual time trials on this year's course, through Italian time-trial specialist Filippo Ganna, who has seven stage wins at the Giro d'Italia and one at the Vuelta a Espana, but still needs a victory at the Tour de France to complete the grand-tour set. 'Maybe the first days we try to be more conservative, try to go all-in for the TT, and then after that's the start 100 per cent of my Tour,' Ganna said. 'I would like to try [and win a stage]. Why not this year?' Ineos Grenadiers at 2025 Tour de France Thymen Arensman, Tobias Foss, Filippo Ganna, Axel Laurance, Carlos Rodriguez, Connor Swift, Geraint Thomas, Samuel Watson.
