Bill Ackman Slammed Online For Tennis Loss After Accepting Wildcard
Billionaire hedge fund manager Bill Ackman's wildcard entry into a professional tennis tournament ended in swift defeat Wednesday, drawing sharp criticism from tennis fans and officials who questioned whether the hedge fund manager had earned his spot on the court. Bill Ackman, chief executive officer of Pershing Square Capital Management LP, takes a break during ... More his match at the third annual Finance Cup tennis tournament in Miami, Florida, U.S., on Saturday, April 1, 2017. Just before matches began at the Finance Cup tennis tournament near Miami Beach, bankers and investors huddled around hedge-fund manager Ackman to hear him riff about the stakes for his portfolio. Photographer: Mark Elias/Bloomberg © 2017 Bloomberg Finance LP Ackman announced his wildcard selection on X last Wednesday, writing that former Grand Slam winner Jack Sock managed to list him as his doubles partner at the Hall of Fame Open in Newport, Rhode Island—he also said he was 'pretty sure' he would be 'the oldest person in tennis history,' at 59 years old, to win Association of Tennis Professionals points. The Hall of Fame Open is a competitive ATP tournament Challenger series event held on grass courts, with participants generally selected based on ATP rankings, wildcards entries and qualifiers. Sock, 32, retired from professional tennis in 2023 to pursue a career in pickleball and was suddenly given a wildcard for the Newport event, and listed Ackman, a longtime tennis lover, as his partner (players can select anyone as their partner, regardless of status). Social media users mocked Ackman after he and Sock lost 6-1, 7-5 to Australians Omar Jasika and Bernard Tomic, and an op-ed published in USA Today slammed Ackman's entry as a 'mockery of pro tennis,' blasting Sock for giving 'no indication that he's planning a comeback' and Ackman because 'you can't find results' on him 'in any of the public tennis databases kept by the USTA.' Randy Walker, the director for the Vero Beach Futures tennis tournament—an International Tennis Federation tournament—took to X after the match to post, 'I just watched the absolute worst professional tennis match I have ever seen,' noting Ackman and Sock's loss. A wildcard is a special entry granted by tournament organizers that allows a player to enter the main draw or qualifying rounds without meeting the usual ranking or qualification criteria. They are typically given to former top players, promising young players, local players or players with promotional value. Chief Critic Walker, who has served as the tournament director for Vero Beach Futures since 2017, said on X that he wanted to 'provide some commentary' and insights on the Newport match, but that he was 'too sick to my stomach over it to do so right now.' Earlier on Wednesday, Walker slammed Ackman for not 'earning' his wildcard, referencing 53-year-old James Bragg, who was given a wildcard into the USTA Pro Circuit tournament in Vero Beach after winning a doubles event in 2023. Walker has also criticized Ackman on X for saying he would be 'the oldest person in tennis history at 59 to win ATP points,' pointing to Gardnar Mulloy, who 'earned' his ATP ranking at 64 at a Grand Prix event played in North Miami, Florida, in 1978.

Chourio drives in winning run in 10th as Brewers win 3-2 and hand Dodgers their 6th straight loss
MILWAUKEE (AP) — Jackson Chourio singled home the winning run in the 10th inning as the Milwaukee Brewers rallied to beat Los Angeles 3-2 on Wednesday to complete their first home sweep of the Dodgers in franchise history. The Brewers' only two previous sweeps of the Dodgers came at Los Angeles, in May 2012 and August 2017. The NL West-leading Dodgers have lost six straight. Milwaukee's Trevor Megill (2-2) struck out Freddie Freeman, Andy Pages and Tommy Edman in order in the top of the 10th. William Contreras led off the bottom of the 10th with a fly to deep center off Kirby Yates (4-3) that advanced automatic runner Sal Frelick to third. Chourio then singled through the left side of a drawn-in infield for his first career walk-off hit. The Brewers tied the game in the ninth when pinch-hitter Andrew Vaughn's one-out single off Tanner Scott brought home Isaac Collins and put runners on the corners. Scott struck out Andruw Monasterio and retired Frelick on a grounder to second to force extra innings. Dodgers starter Tyler Glasnow struck out five and allowed one unearned run, three walks and two hits over six innings in his first appearance since April 27. He had been on the injured list with shoulder inflammation. Milwaukee's José Quintana struck out four and allowed four walks, two hits and one run in six innings. He didn't allow a hit until Esteury Ruiz's two-out single in the fifth. Key moment The Dodgers broke a 1-all tie in the seventh and had a chance to extend their lead later in the inning, but Nick Mears retired Freeman on a grounder to first with the bases loaded. Key stat The Dodgers have lost six straight for the first time since April 2019. They have totaled 11 runs during the skid. Up next The Dodgers visit San Francisco on Friday. Likely starters are Dustin May (5-5, 4.82 ERA) for the Dodgers and Logan Webb (8-6, 2.62) for the Giants. The Brewers host Washington on Friday. Quinn Priester (6-2, 3.59) will start for Milwaukee. Mitchell Parker (5-9, 4.72) pitches for Washington. ___ AP MLB:
