Wimbledon: Carlos Alcaraz quells Struff challenge to march on at Wimbledon
Defending Wimbledon champion Carlos Alcaraz was given another tough litmus test by plucky German Jan-Lennard Struff but the second seed battled his way to a 6-1 3-6 6-3 6-4 victory and reached the fourth round on Friday. An off-colour Alcaraz had flirted with danger in his five-set opener against Italian veteran Fabio Fognini before mowing down Oliver Tarvet in the last round, begging the question of which avatar of the Spaniard would turn up. The 22-year-old, who was taken the distance by Struff before winning their meeting at the All England Club in 2022, began the match with a double fault and sprayed errors on Centre Court but rediscovered his rhythm to book a clash with Andrey Rublev. 'I knew that it was going to be really, really difficult,' Alcaraz said. 'I had to be really focused on every side, on my service games and the return. READ MORE 'His game suits the grass – big serves, getting to the net as much as he can. So I'm just really pleased about everything that I've done today, fighting, running, making great shots. 'I tried to make the most of the opportunities he gave me in the match and I'm proud about getting the win in four sets.' Alcaraz saved two break points in his second service game and then broke for a 3-1 lead, gaining the foothold he needed in the match before wrapping up the opening stanza on serve, hitting a huge ace on set point. But in a Jekyll and Hyde type switch, with shadows engulfing the main showcourt, the five-time Grand Slam winner surrendered the next set as Struff recovered an early break and went on to level the match comfortably. An untimely double fault from Struff in the second game of the third set gave Alcaraz the platform to re-establish his lead and the twice Wimbledon champion never looked back from there until he closed it out with another big serve. Elsewhere, more than nine hours on court across 14 gruelling sets has proved just the tonic for Taylor Fritz's creaky joints, with the world number five declaring himself fresher than ever after reaching Wimbledon's fourth round on Friday. The American was taken the distance in his opening two matches before defeating Spaniard Alejandro Davidovich Fokina 6-4 6-3 6-7(5) 6-1 on Centre Court, extending his stay at the All England Club. There were also wins for seeds Karen Khachanov and Andrey Rublev, while Cameron Norrie is the only British player left in the men's draw after a 7-6, 6-4, 6-3 win over Mattia Bellucci. In the women's, four-time major winner Naomi Osaka came up short in her quest to reach round four of Wimbledon for the first time before Australian Open champion Madison Keys became the latest seeded casualty. Former world number one Osaka – a two-time champion at both the US Open and Australian Open – surrendered a one-set lead to lose 3-6 6-4 6-4 to 2021 French Open finalist Anastasia Pavlyuchenkova. American sixth seed Keys was then on the receiving end of a major shock in the next women's match on Court Two, losing 6-3 6-3 to 37-year-old German Laura Siegemund.

Photograph: Hannah Peters/Getty The 30-year-old became the sixth top-10 player to be dumped out of the competition and did not speak to the media post-match due to illness. Seeded trio Amanda Anisimova, Linda Noskova and Elise Mertens did progress on day five, in addition to Argentinian lucky loser Solana Sierra. Unseeded Osaka – playing in the third round of the Championships for the first time in seven years – looked set to claim a small piece of personal history before failing to capitalise on two break points at 4-4 in set two. She missed the 2021, 2022 and 2023 editions of the tournament due to mental health issues, injury and pregnancy respectively. The 27-year-old Japanese player has struggled to make an impact at grand slams since the birth of her daughter Shai two years ago and was knocked out of the recent French Open in the first round by Paula Badosa. 'In Paris, I was very emotional,' she said. 'Now I don't feel anything, so I guess I'd prefer to feel nothing than everything. 'It's not like I can really even be mad at myself. I was thinking about the break points that I had. She hit some really good serves. Then she hit a backhand. I can't really do that much about it. 'Obviously I'm still going to beat myself up a little bit. 'I'm just going to be a negative human being today. I'm so sorry. I have nothing positive to say about myself, which is something I'm working on.' Sierra – conqueror of Katie Boulter in round two – continued her impressive Wimbledon debut by beating Cristina Bucsa 7-5 1-6 6-1 and will face Siegemund, who is 16 years her senior, next. American 13th seed Anisimova defeated Hungary's Dalma Galfi 6-3 5-7 6-3. Czech 20-year-old Noskova, seeded 30th, awaits her after she beat Kamilla Rakhimova 7-6 (6) 7-5. Belgian 24th seed Mertens overcame two-time semi-finalist Elina Svitolina 6-1 7-6 (4).

Thomas Partey: Former Arsenal midfielder charged with five counts of rape and one of sexual assault
Former Arsenal footballer Thomas Partey has been charged with five counts of rape and one count of sexual assault, Britain's Crown Prosecution Service (CPS) said on Friday. The allegations relate to three separate women who reported incidents they allege happened between 2021 and 2022, the CPS said. The 32-year-old midfielder, who represents Ghana at international level, will appear at Westminster Magistrates Court on August 5th. Jaswant Narwal, of the CPS, said: 'The Crown Prosecution Service has today authorised the prosecution of Thomas Partey for multiple counts of rape – after carefully reviewing a comprehensive file of evidence. READ MORE 'Our prosecutors have worked closely with officers in the Metropolitan Police who have carried out the investigation, to review the evidence and advise on the appropriate charges.' He said he wished to remind everyone that 'criminal proceedings are active, and the defendant has the right to a fair trial'. 'We know there will be significant public interest in this announcement, but it is absolutely vital that there is no reporting, commentary or sharing of information online which could in any way prejudice these proceedings.' The Metropolitan Police said the investigation into Mr Partey began in February 2022 after officers first received a report of rape. Det Supt Andy Furphy, whose team is leading the investigation, said: 'Our priority remains providing support to the women who have come forward. 'We would ask anyone who has been impacted by this case, or anyone who has information, to speak with our team.' Mr Partey was signed by Arsenal from Atletico Madrid for €50 million in October 2020 and became a key member of Arsenal's first team. He left the club in recent days after his contract expired. He was first arrested in July 2022, though he was not named at the time and continued to play for Arsenal while investigations were ongoing. – PA

I brought GAA to Palestine after visiting the West Bank – one member has lost more than 60 people in his family in Gaza
THE first thing Stephen Redmond noticed when he arrived into the West Bank was the kindness of a people living through horror. In January 2024, the London-Irishman made the trip to the occupied territory with the goal of doing something – anything – to ease the suffering shown all around the world on 3 Stephen Redmond, top left, brought GAA to Palestine in January 2024 Credit: GAA Palestine 3 He is hoping to bring 33 kids and 17 coaches to Ireland later this month Credit: GAA Palestine He brought with him the idea of threads that bond Redmond explained to SunSport: 'I know my own 'I know what the 'It was still a form of resistance, you know? We weren't going to be told we can't play our own sport. 'We can help them, so they're not walking alone. They know they have a nation that has been through what they've been through in many ways, and we can support them with the lessons we've learned.' While born in family spent time in Ireland which he considers his spiritual home. No stranger to gaelic football , he played for a spell in He learned Irish in night classes in Camden, which proved to be an unlikely advantage when he came to learn Arabic. The 56-year-old said: 'That basic understanding of Irish helped me understand the language of the Palestinians, the Levantine Arabic. 'I've actually spoken to Arabic people who were born in the Middle East and come to Ireland. Palestine GAA players watch camogie match on laptop "It would be easier for them to learn Irish than English or any other language, because our language is based fairly similar with the pronouns, etc." It is commonalities such as the above that motivated Redmond's decision to journey to the West Bank. A student of Irish and Palestinian history, the dad-of-two links the two nations together both from a cultural and historical perspective. There are the shared experiences such as both countries being subject to occupation, as well as the far more profound. In 1922, with the island of Ireland partitioned into War of Independence, the Black & Tans were of no further use south of the border. Redmond added: 'Any nation that has suffered settler occupation, dehumanization, subjugation, apartheid, religious persecution, language genocide, food genocide, penal laws, colonization - any nation that has any of those has been affected by any of those will have a natural empathy for another nation. 'Ireland has experienced all of those things and more. And Palestine has experienced much of that too. 'Our link to Palestine is so unique. It is so unique.' ROAD TO HEBRON By the time Redmond made his trip, Gaza had been on the receiving end of relentless bombardment by That attack instigated the latest chapter in a conflict that has its origins in the Balfour Declaration of 1917, which outlined the UK's commitment to a Jewish state in Palestine. Per some reports, as many as 100,000 Gazans have been killed since October 7. All the while, illegal settlements continue to propagate in the West Bank. Redmond got an up close and personal look at the extent to which Israel maintains control over who gets in and out of the besieged territory when he made his trip. He outlined: 'They start speaking to you in Hebrew. If you can't speak Hebrew, you're asked to join a separate line, so they start breaking you down initially and putting us into a different line. 'They said why are you going and I had no answer. No matter what you think up, it's not going to work . They'll ask you have you got any business connections there? No. Any family there? No. 'They took away my bag, and what I thought was, in case I do get stopped, I need to have a few props here. 'I brought a number of Irish flags because I wanted to put up Irish flags to show that the Irish are now here, that we're with the Palestinians. 'I wrapped it in an Israeli flag, and I put a skull cap in it as well, and that's what got me through. 'There was a rally in thanks to Court about genocide. "I brought a number of Irish flags there. The Palestinians took the flag off me. They put it right at the front with a girl to show the flag off in front of all the other flags. "Poor girl had it around the wrong way but it didn't matter." 'One member has lost in excess of 60 members of his family in Gaza, so this is normal life.' Redmond found a place to stay in Hebron before going on to travel to Ramallah while his driver convinced him to abandon a plan to make his way to Gaza itself. In the months that followed, work was done to build the foundations of gaelic games in the West Bank. The first club was founded in Ramallah and was eventually named in honour of Moataz Sarsour, a volunteer who was killed by the IDF in August 2024. There is also the story of Maher Haroun, the PRO of Moataz Sarsour who has been in prison for over 200 days and who Redmond claims has lost 20kg in weight and is suffering from untreated scabies. Then there is the story of one of the club's coaches, the identity of whom was not provided for his own security . Redmond said: 'They bulldozed his house down. 'He had tried to get close to it a number of times, but they were sniping at them, so he couldn't get to his own apartment after being kicked out of his original house. 'He wanted to get back to collect stuff out of it, so he eventually got in a few days later, and after this sniping incident. 'The TV was all broken up by the soldiers , everything was broken. 'Next thing, he had two flashbang grenades thrown in behind him. They went in, smashed his head against the wall, which nearly knocked him out. 'They beat him up and then they threw him over the first floor [balcony], left him dead below. 'He is alive though, and God willing, he's going to be all right. 'One member has lost in excess of 60 members of his family in Gaza, so this is normal life.' 3 A young player in a Palestine GAA jersey Credit: GAA Palestine Yet, in spite of it all, humanity and community has prevailed, almost as if an act of defiance in and of itself. Redmond gushed: 'What a lovely people. 'I remember going in, they were offering me all the services for free. The doctor, the dentist, the sports therapist. 'I remember speaking to a lady in Gaza. 'My aunt fell over. We thought she was going to die. 'She's in a nursing home, and I sent out a message to a few people, just to say some prayers for my aunt. 'You know what they did in Gaza? They spoke of her, to say prayers for her, in the open air, during the prayers of the Friday. 'She had the whole community praying for an Irish nun in a nursing home in Glasgow , and they've been bombed the f*****g s**t out of over there. 'That young fellow that was thrown out of the first floor? He phoned me yesterday to see how I am.' "We believed we needed to bring them because we felt they might not even be around next year." Since the birth of Moataz Sarsour GAA, four other clubs have been established, in Hebron, Tulkaram, South Bethlehem, and Jenin. Meanwhile, there are plans to introduce gaelic games to 10,000 kids across up to 40 schools in Al Bireh. The provision of resources has been tricky, but two hurley producers have been set up in the West Bank. Indeed, despite the plan being to introduce Meanwhile, a group of young girls picked up the sticks to play camogie in January 2025 in an indoor complex provided by a Chinese entity. Infrastructure is naturally modest, with the training ground in Tulkaram amounting to a lane out the back of a house. They have been donated land in that municipality, although are hesitant to build on it lest it be a target for air strikes , such is the danger with which the people live every day. Redmond added: "When I first arrived in the camps, one lad said to me, 'be careful with the soldiers, it's not like where you come from.' "It was actually very chilling. He said, 'they will kill you before they see your blue eyes.'" VISA ISSUES Plans are in place for GAA Palestine to visit Ireland later this month. Thirty-three A Yet obstacles remain , with Redmond revealing visas have not yet been provided for the trip by the Irish embassy in Tel Aviv. He said: "We were given roughly 10 weeks in which to submit all our documents to the Irish Embassy. "They added in more requirements which were going to be difficult like birth certificates in English. "I speak to the Irish embassy in Tel Aviv pretty much every day. "Then Iran started bombing Israel so they closed the embassy down. They've opened up. Then I got an apology from the embassy that the 14 documents I sent them, they had not saved properly. "We have spent in excess of $38,000 on flights and hotels before we get them into Ireland. "We had to show proof of purchase to apply for the visas, so had no option but to purchase them, and there is insurance protection. "This issue with the visas needs to be resolved. I was told that they are doing the best but they still can't give a final answer as they're waiting for a response from "I'm asking all political representatives to please support this. This is a major national tour. This will be in the history books . "We believed we needed to bring them because we felt they might not even be around next year."
